Associations and Accreditations
Esketamine (Spravato) Therapy
Spravato For Depression in New Jersey
Spravato (esketamine intranasal spray) is a novel treatment for depression, specifically treatment-resistant depression. Depressive symptoms can crucially inhibit daily functioning and reduce our quality of life. For some, these symptoms can be challenging to alleviate with traditional therapies. In these cases, innovative treatments that are supported by rigorous research and scientific findings offer a promising, life-changing possibility.
Why Choose Spravato?
Spravato is FDA-approved as a mental health therapy for treatment-resistant depression. It is a nasal spray that uses the active ingredient, esketamine, to modulate neurotransmitter systems associated with depressive symptoms. Esketamine is a molecule derived from ketamine and is a separate treatment method from ketamine therapy. Spravato can be an attractive alternative to ketamine therapy for clients seeking rapid relief from hard-to-treat depressive symptoms and prefer minimally invasive techniques.
The outcomes of Spravato have been thoroughly researched and demonstrate its effectiveness and ability to provide rapid relief for depressive symptoms, especially suicidality.
How We Conduct Spravato
Elevium Health is a Spravato REMS-certified treatment center. Spravato treatment involves several sessions structured by a protocol in line with official health regulations, empirical evidence, and your personal needs.
A general treatment plan involves 2 sessions per week for the first 4 weeks. For the following 4 weeks, session frequency decreases to once a week. After this, maintenance treatment usually consists of one session per week or every two weeks.
Spravato is self-administered by the client under the supervision of a qualified health professional in our treatment rooms. Some side effects are possible due to the nature of the active ingredient. These may include dizziness, temporary dissociation, and fatigue. To ensure the safety and wellness of our clients, there is a monitoring period of 2 hours following each session. During this time, clients can relax in our zero-gravity chairs while listening to music with calming effects, using specific frequencies and rhythms. We provide modern facilities to create a safe, comfortable space to attend your treatment sessions.
Payment Options
Spravato therapy may be covered by insurance, particularly for treatment-resistant depression. Elevium accepts most major insurance plans, and our team can assist with verifying coverage and discussing financing options. However, if your insurance provider does not cover Spravato treatment, out-of-pocket options are available.
Please note out-of-pocket fees can be expensive. Ketamine therapy can be a more affordable option and is a promising alternative to Spravato in the treatment of depressive symptoms.
