Aftercare & Support

What to Expect After Your Ketamine Therapy at Arka Clinic, Bangalore

At Arka Ketamine Clinic, your care doesn’t end after the infusion. In fact, what happens after the session is just as important as the session itself.

Proper aftercare ensures the effects of ketamine therapy are integrated into your life for lasting healing. This guide explains what you may feel after your treatment and the support available to help you move forward with clarity, strength, and emotional balance.

Immediately After Your Session

Most patients feel relaxed or emotionally open after treatment. While some people experience a lift in mood quickly, others notice subtle changes over the next few days.

What You Might Experience:

  • Feeling calm, dreamy, or emotionally reflective

  • Slight dizziness or light-headedness

  • Mild fatigue or the need to rest

  • Increased clarity, openness, or peacefulness

These effects are completely normal and typically fade within an hour or two.

Important After-Session Guidelines

  • Do not drive or operate heavy machinery for at least 12–24 hours

     

  • Avoid alcohol or recreational substances after your session

     

  • Rest and hydrate—allow your mind and body time to process

     

  • Eat a healthy meal after your session to support energy and balance

     

    Consider journaling or meditating to help integrate insights

In the Days Following Treatment

In the days after your ketamine session, your brain is more flexible and open to change. This is the ideal time to introduce new healthy habits, work with a therapist, or reflect on the experience.

Positive Changes May Include:

  • Better sleep and increased energy

     

  • Improved mood and emotional balance

     

  • Reduced symptoms of depression, anxiety, or pain

     

  • Decreased cravings or emotional triggers

     

  • A greater sense of calm, control, and motivation

     

Each patient responds differently, but many feel a noticeable shift after just a few sessions.

Emotional Integration Support

Ketamine therapy can bring up strong emotions, memories, or insights. To help process these experiences and apply them in real life, we offer:

  • Post-session check-ins with our clinical team

  • Referrals to licensed therapists or integration coaches

  • Tools and resources for mindfulness, self-reflection, and grounding

  • Optional group or one-on-one integration support

We believe that emotional integration is a key part of long-term healing.
