ASHEVILLE, N.C. (WLOS) \u2014 Hydrate Medical is expanding its services to offer ketamine therapy one day a week, according to a news release.<\/p>\n

Ketamine therapy will be administered by Keith Parris, an Acute Care Nurse Practitioner, every Tuesday.<\/p>\n

“Hurricane anniversaries often bring a resurgence of emotional distress, anxiety, and trauma-related symptoms. In areas like Asheville and the surrounding mountain communities, where natural disasters have left a lasting impact, access to innovative mental health care is more crucial than ever,” said Hydrate Medical in the news release.<\/p>\n

According to the news release, ketamine therapy is a form of therapy that treats drug-resistant depression, PTSD, OCD, and anxiety. The release says ketamine is a “non-narcotic medication.”<\/p>\n

Per the release, ketamine works by targeting glutamate receptors in the brain, leading to “rapid relief of depressive symptoms and promoting long-term healing.”<\/p>\n

“Our goal is to offer more than hydration services\u2014we want to be a wellness partner for the whole person,” said Keith Parris, mental health provider and co-founder of Hydrate Medical and Derive Health. “Bringing ketamine therapy to Asheville gives us another tool to help people who feel like they’ve tried everything else.”<\/p>\n

According to the release, nearly 80% of treatment-resistant depression patients have reported significant improvement when using ketamine in a supportive therapeutic setting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ASHEVILLE, N.C.
