What is Mind Altering Ketamine Therapy? Do the Benefits Outweigh the Risks?

Ketamine treatment seems to be a trending topic these days.  Chrissy Teigen has sung its praises, Real Housewife of Miami, Adriana de Moura was shown starting treatment on the show and last week it was revealed to contributed to the cause of Matthew Perry's death. Jay Godfrey, founder of NUSHAMA, a groundbreaking wellness center in New York, joins us to shed light on the current trend of psychedelic therapy for mental health issues like PTSD and depression.  We'll explore what ketamine is, what it does, and how it is being used as a game-changing treatment by those who have become resistant to conventional methods. Elon Musk has even openly shared his support for ketamine and its effectiveness in treating depression, and says that he takes ketamine in small doses as an alternative to traditional medications.  Surprising?? Maybe! But today we'll uncover the reasoning behind this, PLUS learn more about the therapeutic benefits of ketamine. If you're tired of traditional pharmaceuticals and interested in exploring alternative options, this is the episode for YOU, because Jay Godfrey will address any preconceived notions you may have and help destigmatize this innovative approach to mental health treatment. --- --- --- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Rachel on Instagram!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @RachelUchitelNYC Executive Producer: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Alison Goodman Please like, share, subscribe, and give us a 5-star review!
