Innerbloom Ketamine Therapy
February 2024
Since February is "the month of love" I would like to take a moment to acknowledge and celebrate love in all its practical forms. Whether it's the strength of self-love, the reliability of close friendships, or the ties that bind us to family, these manifestations of love are potent forces that deserve recognition. Beyond the clichés of red roses, chocolate and Hallmark cards, at Innerbloom, we understand that love is not just an abstract concept, but a tangible and impactful aspect in all of our lives. This month prompts us to appreciate and commemorate the concrete relationships that contribute to our well-being and resilience. Isn't love worth celebrating?

🎉 New Team Member
Introducing Libby Fox, Innerbloom's new Clinic Manager! Libby helps manage the day-to-day operations of the clinic, assisting with scheduling and ensuring that our patients receive the utmost care and have a exceptional experience at Innerbloom. Having called San Luis Obispo home for nearly a decade, her extensive background in customer service and marketing make her a valuable asset to our team. On a personal note, I'm delighted to announce that Libby is also my fiancée, and we are engaged to be married this October!
When she's not at Innerbloom, Libby enjoys doing art, both drawing and painting, reading, baking (her peanut butter cookies will knock your socks off) working out, and going for hikes with me and our Golden Retriever, Eli. She has a voracious sweet tooth, a loud laugh and a compassionate heart.

💕 New Offering - Couples Ketamine Therapy
In our ongoing commitment to expanding access to transformative healing, Innerbloom is excited to introduce a new initiative: ketamine therapy for couples. By undergoing this process together, couples can potentially amplify the benefits, becoming more receptive to change, facilitating the initiation of healthy habits together, and more effectively harnessing the power of ketamine assisted psychotherapy.
This unique offering is designed to support couples on their individual and collective journeys towards growth and strengthened relationships.
☀️ The Details:
- Experience a price reduction for two simultaneous treatment series for new clients, or a price reduction for two simultaneous booster infusions for existing clients.
- Couples will receive IV ketamine simultaneously, in separate treatment rooms, with a ten minute difference in start time.
- Once both patients have finished their infusions, the couple will have thirty minutes to debrief together and discuss their experience.
- Couples will need to arrange to have a safe ride home post infusion, adhering to typical protocol at Innerbloom.
Participants will be hand-selected on a case-by-case basis. Please respond to this email if this sparks your interest to receive more information and details on pricing benefits.

Ketamine Therapy for the Treatment of Chronic Pain, Fibromyalgia, and More: One of the remarkable aspects of ketamine is its ability to effectively alleviate pain. In this post, we discuss its mechanisms, cite examples of its use, and underscore the importance of initiating effective pain control early to prevent potential long-term consequences when left untreated.
Navigating Risks, Mitigating Misuse, and Confronting Ketamine Abuse: Ketamine holds immense potential for healing; however, like any powerful tool, it can cause harm when used improperly. It is critical to recognize that using ketamine without proper medical guidance and monitoring can pose risks of harm and addiction.
