VERY SPECIAL “K” –
Dec. 18, 2025 – What sets the program apart is its multi-modal approach that addresses addiction at every level—neurological, psychological, and physiological. At the core of the treatment protocol lies a sophisticated integration of ketamine infusions, a therapy that’s been gaining scientific validation for its remarkable effects on addiction recovery. Research has shown that ketamine treatment can increase one-year abstinence rates from 24% in control groups to 66% in ketamine-treated groups for alcoholics, and the drug has demonstrated the ability to reduce cocaine self-administration by up to 67% from baseline levels. Studies across multiple substances of abuse have found improvements in craving, motivation, and decreased substance use rates, with significant effects lasting up to two years following treatment.
Dr. Austin Harris leverages his extensive background in anesthesiology and psychedelic therapy research to administer ketamine infusions with precision, tailoring dosages in real-time based on each patient’s unique physiological responses. “The high relapse rates in traditional treatment models indicate a fundamental flaw in how we address addiction,” Dr. Harris explains. “Our program moves beyond simple detox. It is designed to repair the brain’s reward system and resolve the deep-seated emotional conflicts that fuel substance abuse.”
The mechanism behind ketamine’s effectiveness lies in its action on the brain’s glutamatergic system. Ketamine works as an NMDA receptor antagonist (in addition to activity at 6 other unique receptors), enhancing neuroplasticity and neurogenesis while disrupting functional neural networks involved in addiction.
