The Lowdown on

IV Nutrition

  • IV Nutrition Therapy is a form of IV treatment that supplies the body with necessary vitamins and minerals to replenish deficiencies or aid in healing. The nutrients get delivered through a liquid solution from an IV line, PICC line, or port. The IV drip delivers nutrients directly to the bloodstream.

  • Promoting faster weight loss.

    Curing hangover symptoms.

    Treating certain nutrient deficiencies.

    Cleansing your body of toxins and free radicals.

    Increasing your energy levels.

    Promoting better cardiovascular health.

    Easing anxiety and promoting relaxation.

  • IV vitamin Therapy is known to deliver quick results as it bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. When vitamins and minerals are consumed in natural form or are taken as supplements, it gets broken down as they pass through the stomach and only some of the nutrients are absorbed by the body. IV drip avoids the breakdown phase by directly delivering the required dose of minerals and vitamins into the person’s bloodstream.

  • As it is an intravenous therapy you will only feel a mild discomfort while the small cannula is being placed into the vein. After the treatment some people experience minor swelling at the part of the hand where the needle was placed. It is a temporary effect that goes away on its own.

  • After your quick intake consultation, you’re ready for your infusion.

    You sit back in a comfortable chair in our IV area, and one of the team members inserts a small needle into a vein in your arm. You feel a small prick with the needle, but any discomfort should fade quickly, and the needle will be secured with medical tape.

    We always offer complimentary mints, warm tea and blankets to drape over your body for your visit.

    Your infusion may last anywhere from 40 - 120 minutes, with 60 - 90 minutes being typical for a full bag, depending on the type of IV therapy you’re getting. During your infusion, you are free to do what you like, as long as you remain in your chair and keep the arm with the IV relatively still. Many of our patients like to nap, browse the internet, or watch their favorite shows.

    If you need to get up (say, to use the restroom), a member of the staff can be sure that your IV needle is stable and secure .

    Once your infusion is complete, the needle is removed and you are free to go about your usual activities. There is typically no downtime, and many people report an immediate improvement in their energy levels, mood, and overall feeling of well-being after IV therapy.

    The benefits of your infusion can last for several weeks, or longer in some cases.

  • We recommend every other week, consistently. This is probably the most ideal time period for most people. The fluids received during IV therapy last a few hours, but the vitamins can last days to weeks in your body. Every other week allows your body to get the complete recommendation of vitamins.

  • We offer a multitude of enhancements to your IV bag for added nutritional power, such as…

    B12 Vitamins

    B Complex Vitamins

    Biotin (for beautiful hair & skin)

    Dexpanthenol (for inflammation)
