The image shows a person reclining in a white, padded medical treatment chair inside a modern health clinic. A thin transparent tube is connected to the person’s arm and leads to an intravenous infusion system positioned on the right side, where a fluid bag is hanging from a metal stand. The person is wearing dark, long-sleeved clothing and is holding a sheet of paper or booklet in one hand, resting it on the lap.
The surrounding space appears clean and clinical but softly designed. Behind the chair are light wooden panels arranged horizontally, decorated with green plants that give the room a calm, curated look. To the right of the chair are medical carts and shelves holding devices, containers, and cables, neatly organized. Additional white seating and equipment are visible in the background.
