Spravato Ketamine Therapy in Henderson, Nevada

What is Spravato and How Does It Work?

Spravato is a nasal spray form of esketamine, approved by the FDA for adults with treatment-resistant depression or depression with suicidal thoughts. It’s not like typical antidepressants. Instead of targeting serotonin, Spravato works on glutamate, a chemical linked to learning, memory, and mood. Because of this, some people begin to feel relief within days, even if other medications haven’t worked.

Many clients turn to Spravato after trying multiple treatments with little or no improvement. It offers a new option for those looking for something more effective and faster-acting.
