IV Ketamine Therapy Clinic in Federal Way, WA

At Three Points Healing, we are committed to offering innovative, evidence-based treatments to support the mental health and well-being of our community. One such advanced option is IV Ketamine Therapy—a medical treatment involving the intravenous administration of ketamine, a medication originally developed as an anesthetic and now recognized for its rapid and transformative effects in managing certain mental health conditions.

Our experienced team at Three Points Healing utilizes IV Ketamine Therapy for individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression, anxiety disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Unlike traditional antidepressants, which may take weeks to show results, ketamine can provide significant symptom relief within hours or days for some patients. The medication is carefully infused directly into your bloodstream, allowing for precise control over dosage and a swift onset of therapeutic effects.

Research suggests ketamine works by influencing glutamate, a neurotransmitter crucial for mood regulation and neural plasticity. By restoring healthy neural connections, IV ketamine therapy can offer hope to those whose symptoms have persisted despite other standard treatments.

At Three Points Healing, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. IV ketamine therapy is administered in our tranquil, supportive setting under the close supervision of our highly trained medical professionals. Throughout your infusion, you will be monitored to ensure your well-being and to promptly address any side effects, which may include mild changes in blood pressure, dissociation, or temporary hallucinations.

Your treatment plan will be personalized, typically involving a series of infusions over several weeks, followed by maintenance sessions as needed to help sustain your progress.

At Three Points Healing, we are dedicated to providing innovative, evidence-based care for individuals facing challenging mental health and chronic pain conditions. IV ketamine therapy has emerged as a promising treatment option for patients who have not found relief with traditional therapies—a focus that aligns with our mission to offer hope and healing where it’s needed most.

One of the primary uses of IV ketamine at Three Points Healing is for the treatment of major depressive disorder, especially in cases of treatment-resistant depression—when patients do not respond to standard antidepressant medications. In addition to depression, our team offers ketamine infusions to address bipolar depression, often providing rapid symptom relief and a renewed sense of well-being for individuals who have struggled with persistent symptoms.

IV ketamine therapy at Three Points Healing is also available for certain anxiety disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). For patients who have not found relief through conventional therapies, ketamine infusions may offer a new path forward, helping to reduce symptoms and improve overall quality of life.

Our practice also utilizes ketamine infusions as part of a comprehensive approach to managing chronic pain syndromes such as complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), neuropathic pain, and fibromyalgia. By modulating pain pathways and reducing central sensitization, IV ketamine can be an effective adjunct to other pain management strategies.

At Three Points Healing, an intravenous (IV) ketamine session is a carefully structured experience designed for both safety and comfort. Typically, the IV ketamine infusion lasts about 40 minutes, during which our experienced healthcare providers administer the medication slowly through an IV line. Before the infusion begins, our team will take 10 to 15 minutes to review your medical history and discuss what to expect, ensuring the session is tailored to your individual needs.

After the infusion concludes, patients remain in our calming environment for an additional 30 to 60 minutes of monitoring. This allows our team to observe for any immediate side effects and to ensure your well-being before you leave. In total, your visit to Three Points Healing for an IV ketamine session will last between 90 minutes and two hours. The exact duration may vary depending on your personal response, our specific protocols, and your unique health considerations.

At Three Points Healing, we offer IV therapy as part of our commitment to providing innovative, evidence-based treatments for conditions such as depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. When you receive IV ketamine at our clinic, you may begin to notice its effects within minutes of the infusion starting. Many of our patients report changes in perception, mood, or physical sensations during their session.

The onset and intensity of these effects can vary from person to person, depending on factors such as your metabolism, the dosage prescribed by our clinicians, and your unique medical needs. Some individuals notice a reduction in symptoms—such as relief from depression or pain—during or shortly after their infusion at Three Points Healing. For others, improvements may develop gradually over several hours or days following treatment.

It’s important to remember that the sensations you may experience during the infusion, such as mild dissociation or sedation, are common and distinct from the longer-term therapeutic benefits, which can take time to emerge. Throughout your ketamine treatment at Three Points Healing, our experienced providers will closely monitor you to ensure your safety, comfort, and optimal care each step of the way.
