Treatment is based on conventional medicine, extended by integrative anthroposophic psychiatry, milieu-therapeutic ward concepts, integrative nursing and artistic therapies. Its public pages do not describe a dedicated esketamine programme, so ask the psychiatry secretariat how Spravato treatment is arranged.
