Medical consultation between a clinician and a patient

If you are considering ketamine therapy, cost is usually one of the first questions, and it can be hard to get a straight answer. Prices vary widely depending on how ketamine is given, how much monitoring and therapy is included, and whether insurance is involved. Below, we explain exactly what ketamine-assisted therapy in Johns Creek costs at Vigor Wellness Space, what is included, and how our pricing compares with other types of ketamine treatment.

Quick answer: ketamine therapy cost at Vigor Wellness Space

Service Price Details
Psychiatric evaluation / medical review $400 Required before treatment; about 1 hour
6 KAP sessions + integration $3,300 About 1 hour each, 2 sessions per week
Maintenance KAP session $550 As needed after your initial series
Integration session $250 50 minutes

Typical first course: $400 evaluation + $3,300 six-session series = $3,700. First responders, healthcare providers, and veterans receive a 5% discount. We do not accept insurance; treatment is fee-for-service. Current prices are always listed on our pricing page.

What is included in the price

Ketamine-assisted therapy (KAP) at Vigor Wellness Space is more than a dose of medication. Your price covers:

  • A thorough evaluation of your mental health history, current medications, medical conditions, and goals, to confirm KAP is safe and appropriate for you
  • Intramuscular ketamine injections, with no IV needed, given in a calm, private room with curated music
  • Continuous in-person monitoring: our provider stays with you for the entire session
  • Integration support to help you understand and apply what comes up during sessions, which is where much of the lasting benefit is built

Why ketamine therapy prices vary so much

When you compare prices online, you are often comparing different treatments. Here is how the main options differ:

Type How it is given Cost and coverage (typical)
IV ketamine infusions Slow IV drip in an infusion clinic, usually a series of about six infusions Often several hundred dollars per infusion (commonly around $400 to $800), usually self-pay. Therapy is often not included
Intramuscular KAP (what we offer) Injection into the muscle, with a provider present and integration support At our clinic, $3,300 for a six-session series with integration, self-pay
Spravato (esketamine) nasal spray Self-administered nasal spray at a certified treatment center, with at least 2 hours of monitoring FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression, so often covered by insurance with prior authorization
At-home oral or sublingual ketamine Tablets or lozenges taken at home, usually after a telehealth visit Usually the lowest price, with the least in-person monitoring

For a deeper look at the nasal spray option, read Spravato vs. Ketamine Therapy. Lower-cost options usually trade away monitoring, therapeutic support, or both. When comparing, ask what is included: the evaluation, the provider’s presence during sessions, and integration or therapy afterward.

Does insurance cover ketamine therapy?

In most cases, no. Ketamine for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain is prescribed off-label, so insurers generally do not cover ketamine-assisted therapy or IV infusions. Spravato is the main exception, because it is FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression. Some patients ask about using HSA or FSA funds; check with your plan administrator about your specific account.

Is ketamine therapy worth the cost?

For the right person, it can be. KAP is designed for adults who have not found relief through traditional therapy or medication, including those with treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, and chronic pain. Many people weigh the cost of a focused, time-limited series against years of ongoing symptoms and treatments that have not worked.

KAP is not for everyone. Uncontrolled high blood pressure, certain heart conditions, active psychosis, some substance use histories, and pregnancy can make ketamine unsafe. That is why every patient starts with an evaluation. If ketamine is not the right fit, we will tell you and discuss other options, such as medication management.

How to keep costs manageable

  • Ask about the 5% discount if you are a first responder, healthcare provider, or veteran.
  • Book maintenance only when needed. After the initial series, some patients need occasional maintenance sessions and others need none. Your provider will help you decide based on how you are doing.
  • Use integration sessions strategically. Integration helps you keep the gains from treatment, which can reduce how often you need maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

How much is one ketamine session?

At Vigor Wellness Space, a single maintenance KAP session is $550. New patients start with a $400 evaluation and a six-session series ($3,300, including integration).

How many ketamine sessions will I need?

Our standard program is six sessions, two per week. After that, some patients benefit from occasional maintenance sessions. Your provider will recommend a plan based on your response.

Is intramuscular ketamine as effective as IV ketamine?

Both routes deliver ketamine into the bloodstream quickly, and intramuscular dosing avoids the need for an IV line. Your provider will explain how dosing works and what to expect during your evaluation.
