Ketamine Music Therapy
13 januari 2022 · 12 min
Today, we bring you a story from KEXP's Sound & Vision podcast. Lees meer
Ketamine treatment centers are opening all over Seattle. The psychedelic drug is used to help with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and other ailments, but it does come with controversy. These treatments look and feel much different than most mental health treatments. It also sounds different because music is an important part of Ketamine infusions. KEXP’s Rachel Stevens reports on how the treatments work.
Other recent stories from Sound & Vision look at the effect of vinyl delays, the numbers behind "Spotify Wrapped," and 2021 music round-ups. Stay up to date by subscribing to KEXP's Sound & Vision wherever you listen to podcasts.

Speaking with Cheryl Waters, the duo share memories of that incredible week, insight into their record-making process, and their thoughts on why they make such great collaborators and friends.
