LONGEVITY WEIGHT LOSS
PROCESS
@LIVKRAFT
Please arrive 10 – 15 minutes before your first appointment in order to fill out the required paperwork. When you have completed the intake form and waivers, a LIVKRAFT team member will check you in and walk you back to one of our Float Suites once the room is available and prepared for your treatment. Once you enter the suite feel free to lock the door for privacy (we have constant communication through our integrated intercom system when you are in the FloatPod and the ability to enter the room in case of an emergency). In the room you will find a shower, 2 towels, earplugs and Vaseline. Goggles are available upon request.
Please follow these steps once you have undressed:
- Quickly rinse off with a warm shower. Be sure to dry your feet and use caution walking around the room after your shower.
- Cover any open wounds or cuts with Vaseline as the high concentration of salt can be very uncomfortable.
- Place earplugs in both ears. If you request goggles, put the goggles on prior to entering the FloatPod.
- Enter the FloatPod using caution.
- Take a few minutes to find the most comfortable position for your body. We have floating neck pillows in case of any neck discomfort. Some people experience neck discomfort during their float session if they are unable to fully relax and fail to trust that their head will remain above the water when fully committing to the Float and letting go of all muscular tension.
- We offer the option of experiencing guided meditation for the first 10 minutes of your treatment. If you would like this option as part of your treatment, please let a LIVKRAFT team member know prior to your treatment.
- Through our Intercom system we will let you know when you have 5 minutes remaining in your float and will alert you when the session has completed.
- Be sure NOT TO TOUCH YOUR EYES at any time during the treatment or before you shower after the treatment. THE SALT WILL CAUSE SIGNIFICANT IRRITATION. If salt does get in your eye at any time exit the FloatPod and use the shower to rinse your eyes immediately.
- Once your float session is completed, enjoy a shower, dry off, get dressed and check out at the front desk with a LIVKRAFT team member.
- Enjoy the rest of your day!

+

Several studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in promoting weight reduction in both diabetic and non-diabetic populations. At LIVKRAFT, we base our treatments on the latest scientific evidence, ensuring both safety and efficacy for our patients.
+
After completing the 4-month program, can I restart Ozempic if I notice weight regain?
It's not uncommon for individuals to consider retreatment if they experience weight regain after discontinuing Ozempic. At LIVKRAFT, patient consultations evaluate the potential benefits and risks of restarting the medication. Continuous monitoring and adaptation are crucial, and our team is here to guide you through any decisions regarding your weight management journey.
+
How long does Ozempic take to work, and how quickly can I expect to see results?
Ozempic begins to work soon after administration, influencing the body's insulin secretion and appetite regulation. However, the visible results, particularly in terms of weight loss, can vary based on individual factors.
1. Blood Sugar Regulation: For those with type 2 diabetes, improvements in blood sugar levels may be noticed within a few weeks.
2. Weight Loss: Initial weight loss might be observed within the first few weeks, but significant weight loss usually becomes more noticeable after a few months of consistent use. On average, most people see noticeable weight changes between 12 to 24 weeks into their treatment, especially when combined with dietary changes and regular physical activity.
3. Individual Variability: The timeline for results can differ among individuals. Factors such as starting weight, metabolism, adherence to dietary recommendations, and activity levels can influence the pace and extent of weight loss.
While Ozempic can offer substantial benefits, it's crucial to set realistic expectations and work closely with healthcare professionals for monitoring and guidance. At LIVKRAFT, our integrated approach ensures that every patient's journey is optimized, combining medication with lifestyle strategies for holistic well-being and sustainable results.
+
How much weight can I expect to lose while taking Ozempic?
The amount of weight loss with Ozempic can vary from person to person, depending on several factors, including baseline weight, diet, activity level, and adherence to the medication regimen.
Clinical studies have shown that people with type 2 diabetes who took Ozempic, in combination with diet and exercise, experienced an average weight loss ranging from 5-15% of their baseline body weight over a period of one year. Some experienced even more significant weight loss, while others saw less.
It's important to note that Ozempic is initially approved for managing blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes. However, its weight loss benefits led to its increasing use for weight management in certain populations. Always consult with a healthcare professional to set realistic expectations and determine if Ozempic is appropriate for your individual circumstances.
At LIVKRAFT, we take a comprehensive approach, monitoring progress and providing resources to maximize the potential benefits of treatments like Ozempic. Our aim is to ensure that every patient achieves optimal health outcomes tailored to their unique needs.
