Why We Recommend Music Therapy During Your Ketamine Session

Jun 3, 2025

At Flow Wellness, we believe that healing is not just clinical—it’s also deeply personal and emotional. That’s why we incorporate music therapy as a supportive element during our ketamine infusion treatments. Thoughtfully selected music can enhance your ketamine experience, guide emotional release, and help you feel safe and grounded as your mind enters an altered state of consciousness.

Whether you’re receiving ketamine to treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, or chronic pain, the environment we create for your session matters. Music is more than background noise—it’s a therapeutic tool.

Why Music Matters During Ketamine Treatment

Ketamine works by quieting the Default Mode Network in the brain, loosening rigid thought patterns and allowing access to subconscious material. During this time, music can act as a gentle guide, helping you:

  • Relax into the experience

  • Feel emotionally supported and safe

  • Access deeper insight and reflection

  • Stay focused inward rather than distracted by external stimuli

Research in psychedelic-assisted therapy and integrative psychiatry has shown that curated music enhances the therapeutic effect of medicines like ketamine, offering a soothing structure to the inner journey.

What Kind of Music Should I Listen To During a Ketamine Treatment?

We recommend listening to instrumental, emotionally neutral, or uplifting music—with no lyrics that might pull you into a specific narrative. The goal is to allow your mind to flow freely and emotionally without being distracted or triggered.

Our top recommendation? The Ketalove series on Spotify.

Why We Recommend the Ketalove Series:

  • Created specifically for ketamine-assisted therapy sessions

  • Features ambient, flowing, and ethereal soundscapes

  • Designed to complement the timing of a typical infusion

  • Gentle transitions that mirror the rise, peak, and descent of the treatment

You can find it by searching “Ketalove” on Spotify, or feel free to ask our staff to help you get started when you arrive for your infusion.

Eliminate Distractions for the Best Results

Before your session begins, we highly recommend that you:

  • Put your phone on airplane mode or do-not-disturb

  • Disable notifications from calls, texts, and apps

  • Avoid interruptions—this is your time for deep healing

We recommend comfortable, over-ear headphones for an immersive experience. We have headphones available at our clinic for infusions.

Creating a Safe, Supportive Space

Music is just one part of the environment we cultivate during your ketamine therapy session. Our team is here to support your journey with compassion, expertise, and personalized care. When music, medicine, and mindfulness come together, the healing potential is extraordinary.
