ABOUT KETAMINE TREATMENT
We use evidence-based protocols and intravenous (IV) ketamine.
An extensive collection of studies over decades supports delivering ketamine intravenously as the gold-standard to achieve remission of depression. Other methods of ketamine delivery are not well-studied, do not show equally effective results and carry health risks (intramuscular injections, nasal spray, oral).
Our goal is to provide an affordable service to the community that addresses this serious public health dilemma.
We understand that depression is a multifactorial condition that requires a network of support from health care providers, therapists and family members.
Ketamine therapy is safest and most effective when all aspects of the etiology of a patient’s depression are being addressed. Therefore, a patient must be referred by their primary care or mental health provider prior to therapy.
We do not provide walk-in Ketamine therapy.
FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
My experience here at Reved has been nothing short of amazing. Dr Pennell takes great care with her patients and provides them with sincere attention, personalized treatments and excellent customer service. I genuinely feel like she truly cares about the wellbeing of others. The NAD treatments I get here are nearly 1/3 the cost I was paying and with the same high quality product. I feel so lucky and grateful to have found her and her clinic .
I began NAD treatment March of 2023 out of pure desperation for anything to offer relief from wide spread neuralgia. For a decade, every molecule in my body felt like it was on fire, boiling in oil and being electrocuted. Doctors couldn’t figure out why. NAD+ completely changed my life….I went from barely being able to leave the house, to truly participating in life… I’m 41 and in this short amount of time, I went from being mostly bedridden (aside from work) and unable to enjoy life from the high anxiety, to riding electric skateboards, dirt bikes, playing cello in a band, going back to school to completely change my career and moved to a different part of the state to start a new life. My life is now everything I’ve ever dreamed and more. I know that everyone responds to treatments differently, but if you are struggling with chronic illness and or anxiety, please try this therapy.
Everyone at the clinic is amazing! I had Mercury Toxicity and I’m always super careful what I put in my body. I did a couple of the weight loss shots. I lost 7 lbs and actually felt less anxiety and had more energy. Definitely will do more in the future. I also had a really bad migraine and was nauseous. Dr. Pennell was absolutely amazing she got me all set up with an infusions. A hour later I had no headache or nauseous. It’s was such a blessing! Highly recommend them!
After almost 20 years of intense struggling and trying every medication, treatment, therapy, and option I could I was extremely hopeless and deeply suffering with persistent depression and suicidal ideation…While ketamine infusion is not a magic bullet, the most relief I have ever experienced from my symptoms since their onset has come from this treatment. I feel I have the capacity to heal and progress and continue other treatment with this newfound relief and restored hope that there is something out there that could help…. I cannot recommend (Ketamine Treatment) or Dr. Pennell enough. Dr. Pennell and her team are beyond compassionate, flexible, and invested in the success and improvement of the patients they see. The experience with Dr.Pennell is the most positive I have had with a medical professional. I have never felt so heard in my life or safe with the person I was entrusting my care to.
Dr. Pennell was patient with our questions and very thorough in her responses. She possesses an incredible ability to comfort weary mom’s and hopeless teens. The treatment was such an interesting experience for both my son and me. The IV was easy and painless for him, and once the drip started, I journaled the process of my son’s dissociative experience. Dr. Pennell would come back in the room often to check on us both, and made sure we were comfortable and safe…Six months later, my son is ready to meet almost any moment with intention and purpose. He is no longer depressed, and even struggles to remember the days when it seemed he’d never feel different or better at all.
There’s no real proper way to thank someone for saving your child’s life, but we are forever grateful. I hope this helps someone who’s wondering if it’s the miracle they’ve been praying for. It is.
Dr Pennell is, simply put, an angel on earth. She has a knack for easing any doubt or uneasiness. I have had more than a few Ketamine treatments, and each time was explained thoroughly. All of the doctors on the team made sure during each and every session they monitored me and that everything was running smoothly. Follow up texts or phone calls checking on my wellbeing in the days after have never failed. I am loving the new location, it is such a warm, inviting, and safe environment. The recent partnership with Faith Holistic Ventures, is fantastic. I have no words at the progress I have made after a lifetime of searching for the tools to still my brain. I have no doubt my life has changed for the best by having a truly amazing team that cares about my progress and where I am mentally. LOVE LOVE LOVE this business!!!!!
Came here to have my first IV session. Dr. Pennell is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere was great as well! I received the detox drip and I couldn’t have been more pleased!! I started noticing that I was feeling better by the time I walked to me car! 10 out of 10, highly recommend and planning on doing a membership⭐️!
Excellent treatment with highly professional and experienced staff. Dr Pennell is a fantastic doctor! Ketamine infusion therapy is a solid hope for treatment resistant depression
While I was receiving treatment Dr. Pennell came every single day to check in on me and to also talk with my mom who has had over 25 years of experience in the medical field. She is so genuinely nice and pleasant to be around. She truly cares about her patients, and if you show her the respect she deserves, she will show you the same amount of respect. In short, Dr. Pennell is an angel that I would trust with my life.
We had an extremely positive experience with ketamine infusions for one of our family members. Dr Pennell is kind, compassionate and very professional. Trustworthy!
The fact that I’m publicly sharing my story of a decades-long struggle with Depression, Anxiety and the general feeling of “hopelessness” they elicit. Most people do not understand the amount of energy it takes for a depressed person to “fake it ‘til you make it” through his or her day. But for those of you who do, and SSRIs leave you feeling both fat and just numb, then a ketamine infusion is definitely worth a try.
I trust Dr. Pennell. The groundbreaking work she’s doing, simply put, has quite literally saved my life.
My advice: Record your sessions, as well as journal your infusion experience(s). Each infusion for me was similar, yet very different, and sharing/discussing these unique discoveries has been an important part of the process. For example, Ketamine allowed me to safely go places and re-examine childhood traumas with a new “adult” perspective, and after a few sessions discussing these things with my therapist I simply feel great.
Dr Pennell is helping to saves lives. She’s kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, professional and high accessible. I drive a distance and she always fits me in on a day’s notice. The other doctors on staff have also been kind and caring.
I had a great experience with the wellness infusion therapy! The doctors and staff are amazing and the space is quiet and calmingShan
