Rehydrate and Replenish Your Body

Intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy is a customizable treatment that uses an IV to pump the body with vitamins and nutrients to treat a multitude of concerns. It helps patients battle stress, low energy levels, and chronic health conditions as it replenishes your body with nutrients, helps your metabolism, and optimizes your health.

IV Therapy

Our proprietary IV therapy delivers a mix of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream.

It enables higher concentrations of these nutrients to be absorbed by your cells, since this treatment does not go through the digestive system. Our cells use these extra nutrients to increase our energy levels, help our metabolism, and support the repair and healing processes of our body.

The most common IV includes Vitamin B and C, Magnesium, and Calcium. However, IV Therapy is a personalized treatment, which means that the additional nutrients that are added are customized to your specific needs and recommended by our doctor.

Replenishes Your Body With Nutrients

IV Therapy can treat multiple concerns, and is safe for all ages.

1/3

Hydration

IV fluids can be used to quickly replenish fluids and electrolytes in individuals who are dehydrated due to illness, surgery, or other reasons.

2/3

Nutrient Administration

Essential nutrients such as vitamins and minerals can be delivered directly into the bloodstream to address deficiencies or boost overall nutritional status.

3/3

Medication Administration

Some medications are administered via IV to achieve a rapid onset of action. This is common in emergency situations, critical care, or when a patient is unable to take medications orally.

Benefits of IV Therapy

IV therapy offers several benefits in various medical situations.

Rapid Absorption

IV administration allows substances to enter the bloodstream directly, leading to faster absorption and quicker onset of action compared to oral or other forms of administration.

Precise Dosage Control

Healthcare professionals can precisely control the dosage of medications, fluids, or nutrients delivered through IV therapy, ensuring accurate and effective treatment.

Increased Bioavailability

By bypassing the digestive system, IV therapy can achieve higher bioavailability of certain substances, as they are not subject to degradation or alteration in the digestive tract.

How IV Therapy Works

STEP 1

STEP 2

STEP 3

Selection of Multivitamins and Nutrients

Before the process begins, your doctor will require a detailed history of your health to determine whether IV Therapy is appropriate for you. Once this is done, the doctor will then decide which multivitamins and nutrients will be included in the IV based on your particular needs and condition.

Injection

Using a sterilized needle, the nutrients are directly injected into the bloodstream. Patients might feel a very slight pain at the initial insertion of the needle, but this goes away quickly. It is possible for patients to feel soreness at the injection site, but this is easily fixed by either adjusting the needle or reducing the flow rate of the nutrients in the IV.

Monitoring

Regularly monitor the patient's vital signs, including blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate, throughout the IV therapy. Watch for any signs of complications, such as infiltration (fluid leaking into surrounding tissues), infection, or adverse reactions to medications.

Regularly assess the IV site for signs of inflammation, infection, or other complications. When the IV therapy is complete or no longer necessary, the catheter is carefully removed, and the site is assessed for any issues.

Reasons to Get IV Therapy

IV therapy may be recommended for various reasons, depending on the specific needs of an individual.

Dehydration

IV therapy is often used to rapidly replenish fluids in cases of dehydration due to illness, excessive sweating, vomiting, diarrhea, or insufficient fluid intake.

Nutrient Deficiencies

Individuals with nutrient deficiencies, such as low levels of vitamins or minerals, may receive IV therapy to deliver these essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream.

Medical Procedures or Surgery

IV therapy is commonly used before, during, or after surgical procedures to maintain hydration and deliver necessary medications.

FAQ

Is vitamin therapy safe?

The majority of people tolerate IV vitamin therapy well, and it is a procedure that is not invasive. Each patient is assessed beforehand to make sure they are a suitable candidate for the therapy and doses can be tailored, depending on the condition and the vitamins and minerals required.

How can I prepare for my IV treatment?

Before receiving IV therapy, it is extremely important to be well hydrated. It is also recommended to eat something before your treatment. Being hydrated will make it easier for the IV to access your veins, and eating before will prevent any headaches or lightheadedness.

How often can I receive an IV treatment?

The amount of IV therapy sessions depends on your particular condition, as well as your health history. Your doctor will recommend how many sessions you will need based on these two things. It is also possible for this recommendation to change as time goes on - you might change your mind, or your symptoms might improve and less treatments may be required instead.

Are there any risks involved in IV therapy?

Throughout the procedure, sterile equipment and materials are used to reduce the risk of infection. There are several risks involved, including swelling, bruising, or irritation of a vein, but these are easily catched by your doctor as they will be monitoring you throughout the entire length of the procedure.

Do you create specific “nutrient cocktails” based on individual needs?

Yes, all of our serums are customized nutrient plans based on your concerns and needs.
