## Before Your Session

### Screening

Before your first session, our medical team will:

- Review your health history and medications
- Check for reasons ozone therapy may not be safe
- Order any required tests, such as G6PD screening

**Tip:** Complete screening ahead of time so you're ready on treatment day.

### How to prepare

- **Hydrate well**, since good hydration helps with the blood draw. The Florida heat makes this extra important.
- **Eat a light meal** beforehand
- **Wear comfortable clothing** with sleeves that roll up
- **Bring something to do** to pass the time

## During Your Session

1. **Check-in and vitals**
2. **IV placement**: a quick pinch
3. **Blood draw**: a small amount is collected in a sterile container
4. **Ozone and UV**: medical-grade ozone is mixed with the blood and passed through UV light
5. **Return**: the blood is returned through your IV

Everything happens in a closed, sterile system.

## After Your Session

Most people return to their normal day. Some notice:

- Mild tiredness
- Brief lightheadedness
- Slight bruising at the IV site

**Contact us** if you notice anything unusual or concerning.

## Aftercare Tips

- Drink plenty of water
- Eat a balanced meal
- Take it easy if you feel tired
- Keep the IV site clean

## Questions to Ask at Your Visit

- How many sessions do you recommend?
- What should I watch for?
- How will we know if it's helping?
