Everything on private, in-home IV ketamine therapy across Palm Beach County — safety, process, privacy, and the veterans program.

The basics

What is IV ketamine therapy?

IV ketamine therapy uses a controlled, low-dose intravenous infusion of ketamine, administered and monitored by a clinician, to treat conditions such as treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain. It is used off-label for these indications and is delivered under medical supervision.

How can I get early access before you open?

We are enrolling the first 50 founding members now, ahead of opening. Reserve a founding membership for a founding rate locked for life, priority access at launch, and an invitation to the private Launch Party — no payment today.

Where do you provide care?

We are a fully mobile practice serving Palm Beach County — including Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Jupiter, and Wellington. Every infusion is delivered in your home or another private location.

How is IV ketamine different from Spravato?

IV ketamine is used off-label for mental-health and pain indications. Spravato (esketamine) is a separate, FDA-approved intranasal medication given only in certified healthcare settings. They are different formulations and routes, and evidence for one does not automatically transfer to the other.

Treatment & safety

Is ketamine therapy safe?

For appropriate, screened candidates, IV ketamine has a well-characterized safety profile when administered by trained clinicians. It can temporarily raise heart rate and blood pressure and cause dissociation during treatment, which is why a board-certified CRNA monitors you continuously throughout every session under physician oversight.

Am I a candidate?

Not everyone is. Before treatment, our Medical Director reviews your medical and mental-health history to confirm ketamine therapy is a safe, appropriate fit. Certain cardiovascular, psychiatric, or other conditions may make it unsuitable.

How quickly does it work?

Some research reports measurable relief within hours to days of an infusion, which is faster than typical oral antidepressants. Response varies from person to person, and durable benefit usually depends on a protocol of sessions rather than a single treatment.

How many sessions will I need?

It varies. Many protocols begin with an initial series of infusions over a few weeks, followed by maintenance as needed. Your Medical Director recommends a plan based on your history and response — there is no one-size-fits-all number.

Does ketamine cure depression or PTSD?

No. Ketamine therapy is a treatment that can reduce symptoms and open a window for change; it is not a cure, and results are not guaranteed. It works best as part of a broader plan that may include therapy and integration support.

The in-home experience

What happens during an in-home session?

Your CRNA arrives, sets up a calm treatment space, places the IV, and administers your infusion while monitoring you continuously. Plan for roughly 1.5 to 2 hours including preparation and a monitored recovery period before your CRNA leaves.

Do I need someone with me?

Yes. We ask that a trusted adult be available at home during and after your session for comfort and to help you settle. Your CRNA handles all clinical monitoring.

How do I prepare?

We send guidance in advance — typically light fasting beforehand, comfortable clothing, and a quiet space. Your CRNA brings all medical equipment; you do not need to arrange anything clinical.

Privacy, cost & veterans

How private is this?

Privacy is central to the model. There is no clinic, no public directory listing, and no insurance billing. Your care is documented confidentially under HIPAA and never shared without your written consent.

Do you take insurance?

Arcane Neuro is a private-pay, concierge practice and does not bill insurance. This keeps care discreet and free of third-party visibility. Pricing and Founding Membership details are shared with founding members ahead of launch.

Do you offer anything for veterans?

Yes. We provide ketamine therapy to qualifying combat veterans at a special rate, identical in quality to our private-pay protocols, selected through private referral and clinical screening. See the Veterans Program page to learn more.

A note on ketamine: IV ketamine is used off-label for mental-health and pain indications. This differs from esketamine (Spravato®), an FDA-approved intranasal formulation administered only in certified healthcare settings. Evidence for one route does not automatically transfer to another. Ketamine therapy is not appropriate for everyone; every prospective client is medically screened, and individual results vary.
