An inLIGHTened
Ketamine Experience
We aim to provide you with a holistic treatment, including ketamine therapy, supported processing and other healing practices.
Our Treatment Process
Step 1
Initial phone call, video call or in person inquiry with or without a tour of the office. You will fill out an online intake form then schedule an in-person evaluation.
Step 2
Initial in-person physician evaluation and intake with medical record review. If ketamine is right for you, then the medication and the process are discussed in detail. You will be paired with an integration coach for preparation and ongoing integration.
Step 3
Schedule your integration coaching program prior to your Ketamine treatment session. Preparation involves helping you create intentions for treatment, offering recommendations for changes in daily activities prior to treatment to maximize benefit, and answering questions about what to expect during treatment.

Step 4
Medication journey day in the healing space. Any questions will be answered and we will discuss your intention to help you feel at ease prior to receiving the medicine. We will have an immediate post journey exploration and recommend waiting till the next day to fully process the journey.
Step 5
Next day post journey integration session with your coach to help you process what came up during your journey. You and your coach will create a customized integration plan to incorporate what you learned into your everyday life.
Step 6
There will be follow-up communications from us and through the Osmind app to check in and see how you are doing. At this point subsequent sessions can be scheduled.

Pre-Treatment
01. Assessment & Consult
You will first need to undergo an assessment to see whether Ketamine therapy is the right choice for you. During this time, we will also discuss alternative treatment options to use in place of, or alongside, ketamine therapy.
We will also spend time with you to answer any questions you have about the process and give you more insight on what to expect.
02. Set Intentions
Setting an intention for what you would like to achieve during treatment is an important part of your journey. To find your intention, we provide you with a journal and guidebook, which you will utilize to explore parts of your life you are grateful for, your traumas, and points of contention. Your integration coach will help you with this process.
We ask that for at least 3 days before and after your treatment you abstain from using social media, viewing news, violent programming or politics, or any topics that make you feel ‘heavy’. We also ask that you do not partake in the use of alcohol, marijuana or other mind-altering substances. You will have better treatment results if you are able to come to your session feeling light. We recommend that you take the day after your treatment off work and clear your schedule of any responsibilities so that you can focus on processing what the medicine shows you and how to begin integrating it into your daily life.
Your Treatment
01. Prepare with Clinician
Your clinician will begin by examining if you are both mentally and physically ready for your treatment. We will share our insights into how to get the most out of your experience. We will help you reconnect and hold onto your intention and show gratitude for yourself and the medicine for helping you during your journey.
02. Your Journey
When you're ready to begin your experience, your guide will administer your intramuscular injection while you lay comfortably back in our zero gravity recliners. You will be provided with an eye mask and noise canceling headphones unless you prefer to use your own. Aromatherapy of your choice will be infused into the room while a specially curated playlist of music will help guide you through your journey. Weighted blankets and pillows are available for comfort during the session. A trained staff member will remain at your side throughout the entire experience to assist you during your journey if needed.
03. Reflection
Once the medication has worn off you are likely to feel drowsy. We will have a brief discussion about the themes that may have come up, to further reflect on in the coming days. You will have to have a ride home after your session.
Curate Your Experience
We want you to feel comfortable and safe throughout your experience. We compliment your heightened senses during your treatment with a selection of accompaniments.
Sense of Smell:
Aromatherapy
Choose your own aromatherapy and essential oils from our selection to further relax you during your treatment.
Sense of Sound:
Music
Music is one of the best accompaniments to your journey. We will curate a beautiful playlist to help ease you into and guide you throughout the entire experience
Sense of Touch:
Comfortable Seating
and Soft Blankets
We use zero-gravity recliners with heat and vibration options. These recliners give a warm, ‘cozy’ feeling to further compliment your treatment. Soft blankets, and weighted blankets, are also provided to assist you in relaxation.
Sense of Taste:
Pure Sedona Water
inLIGHTen staff offer Pure Sedona Water directly from the source to hydrate and replenish your body after the completion of your session. Bring your favorite water bottle to use here, and to take home after your journey.
Post Treatment
01. Check In
On the day after your treatment, you will discuss the emotions and experiences which were felt during your session with your integration coach. Talking about your experience will help us to formulate your integration plan. We suggest you take the day off from work or other family responsibilities in order to fully process and take in your journey.
02. Integration
Using the journal and guidebook, your integration coach will assist you in creating your plan to incorporate healthier practices in your daily life. Your integration coach can help you navigate your relationships and understand the blockages which have been holding you back. Your medical treatment is only one part of your journey. We help you to put in the work after your session, so you can begin to see real change in your life.
Most people receive the best benefit from 3-6 ketamine treatments, every 1-2 weeks. We may recommend further dosages based on persistent or recurrent symptoms. We recommend further dosages based on how you are able to incorporate changes into your everyday life.
