Why Preparation Supports a Better Experience

Preparation is essential for several reasons. First, it helps to alleviate anxiety and uncertainty, allowing you to approach your infusion with a clear mind.

How to Get Ready for Your Ketamine Infusion at Soft Reboot Wellness

To ensure a smooth and effective infusion experience, follow these steps:

Complete Your Evaluation

Before your infusion, you will need to complete an intake evaluation. This process is crucial as it allows our team to understand your medical history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. Be open and honest during this evaluation, as it will help us tailor your treatment plan to your specific needs.

Follow Pre-Session Instructions

If your healthcare provider has given you specific pre-session instructions, be sure to follow them closely. This may include fasting for a certain period before your infusion. If you have any questions about these instructions, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team for clarification.

Dress Comfortably

On the day of your infusion, wear comfortable clothing. You may be sitting or lying down for an extended period, so choose loose-fitting attire that allows you to relax. Layers are also a good idea, as the temperature in the clinic may vary.

Avoid Certain Substances

To maximize the benefits of your ketamine infusion, it’s important to avoid stimulants and alcohol in the days leading up to your appointment. Caffeine, nicotine, and recreational drugs can interfere with the treatment’s effectiveness. If you have any concerns about what substances to avoid, please consult with our team.

Emotional Readiness

Take some time to reflect on your emotional state before your infusion. Setting intentions for your treatment can be a powerful way to prepare. Consider what you hope to achieve through the infusion and how you want to feel afterward. This practice can help you enter the infusion room with a positive mindset.
