Here’s some insider tips on prepping for your ketamine infusion sessions. Whether you’re a newcomer or a returning patient, knowing what to bring can make all the difference. Especially when you’re already nervous. Ketamine therapy has transformed many lives by easing various mental health conditions, and a little preparation can enhance your session significantly. So, let’s dive into our top recommendations for items that will ensure your infusion experience is both ultra-comfortable and exceptionally effective
- Comfortable Clothing For your ketamine infusion, comfort is key. We recommend wearing loose-fitting clothes that allow you to relax easily. Choose soft fabrics and consider layers to accommodate any changes in the room temperature to keep you cozy throughout the session. Kick your shoes off and get comfy!
- Your Emotional Support Human Having support during your infusion can be invaluable. We recommend you bring along a friend or family member who can be there with you.
- Headphones The right auditory experience can enhance the therapeutic effects of ketamine. We suggest using headphones—preferably noise-cancelling ones—to help immerse yourself in a peaceful, auditory environment.
- FieldTrip is an app that has music set for psychedelic experiences
- Spotify/Apple Music all have playlists that you can check out for “ketamine playlists”
- A Journal or Notebook Many patients find it helpful to document their thoughts and feelings associated with their ketamine experiences. Bring a journal or notebook to jot down anything significant before or after your session; this can be a powerful tool for reflection and therapeutic processing.
- Eye Mask and Small Blanket To make your infusion space your own comfort zone, an eye mask can help block out unwanted light, while a small blanket can provide extra warmth and a sense of security. You can even bring a stuffed animal or favorite pillow. No judgment here, ever!
- Intentions or Goals Entering your ketamine infusion with a set intention or specific goals can significantly enhance the impact of your session. Whether it’s a mental health goal or a personal insight you’re aiming to achieve, having these intentions written down can focus your thoughts and guide your experience.
Getting ready for your ketamine infusion is like packing for a small, personal retreat. Bringing along these essentials not only ramps up your comfort but also maximizes the treatment’s effectiveness. Think of each item as a little helper—there to support your body, soothe your emotions, and sharpen your focus.
