IV Ketamine Therapy | Luxury Outpatient Mental Health | Futures

Ketamine Therapy in Florida

Induction Phase

  • 3 infusions per week for 2 weeks (6 total sessions)
  • Designed to rapidly reduce acute symptoms and stabilize mood

Maintenance Phase

  • 1 infusion weekly or every other week (as clinically indicated)
  • Personalized schedule to maintain remission and prevent relapse

Each session typically lasts 40–60 minutes, with post-infusion monitoring and wellness support included in your visit.

How It Works

Unlike traditional antidepressants, Ketamine acts on the brain’s glutamate system, the most prevalent excitatory neurotransmitter.
This unique mechanism may support the restoration of damaged neural connections, leading to rapid symptom relief.
Most patients report noticeable changes within hours to a few days after starting treatment.

What to Expect at MetaVida


Our IV Ketamine sessions are conducted in tranquil, private infusion suites on our secure 9-acre campus in Tequesta, Florida.

  • You’ll be seated or reclined comfortably in a peaceful environment
  • A low-dose infusion is administered via IV under supervision
  • You’ll be monitored throughout the experience and discharged once stable
  • You must arrange transportation home, as driving is not permitted post-infusion

We also offer optional integrations with:

  • Individual therapy (CBT, DBT, or EMDR)
  • Holistic wellness services
  • Family support and care coordination

Safety and Side Effects


While Ketamine is well-tolerated by most patients, side effects can occur and typically resolve within the same day.

Possible short-term effects include:

  • Mild dissociation or altered perception
  • Drowsiness or fatigue
  • Increased heart rate or blood pressure
  • Nausea or dizziness

Because IV Ketamine is not FDA-approved for psychiatric use, it is classified as an off-label treatment and is not covered by insurance. Clients should discuss all risks and benefits with our clinical team before initiating treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About IV Ketamine Therapy

How quickly does IV Ketamine work for depression?

Most patients begin noticing changes in mood, energy, or mental clarity within hours to a few days of their first infusion. Full therapeutic benefit usually develops over the course of the six-session induction phase, with many patients reporting their most significant relief by the third or fourth infusion.

How do I know if I’m a candidate for IV Ketamine therapy?

You may be a candidate if you’ve tried two or more antidepressants without adequate relief, experience persistent suicidal thoughts, or struggle with treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, OCD, or severe anxiety. Final eligibility is determined through a comprehensive psychiatric and medical evaluation at our MetaVida clinic.

Does Futures offer payment plans or financing?

Futures Recovery Healthcare does offer flexible payment arrangements and partners with third-party healthcare financing providers such as CareCredit. Our admissions team will walk you through all available options during your confidential consultation. Contact us here.

How long do the effects of a Ketamine infusion last?

The effects of a single infusion typically last between 2 to 4 months, depending on the individual. After completing the full induction series of six infusions, many patients experience symptom relief lasting one to three months. Maintenance infusions are often scheduled every 2–6 weeks afterward to sustain results, with the exact cadence personalized to your clinical response.

Is IV Ketamine addictive?

When administered in a clinical setting at therapeutic doses, IV Ketamine carries a very low risk of addiction. Recreational ketamine misuse involves significantly higher doses, frequent self-administration, and no medical oversight; none of which apply to a structured infusion protocol. That said, patients with a history of substance use disorder are screened carefully, and treatment plans are designed with appropriate safeguards in place.
