What is IV therapy?

Intravenous (IV) therapy is the process of delivering hydration and substances directly into your bloodstream using a needle, thin medical tubing, and a treatment bag. In medical settings, IV therapy allows practitioners to quickly and safely administer medications to patients, as well as restore optimal hydration.

In wellness uses, IV therapy is often referred to as IV nutrition therapy and allows practitioners to deliver a powerful boost of micronutrients directly to the bloodstream. Restoring hydration is also part of wellness IV treatments.

What are the benefits of IV therapy?

You can certainly get all of the nutrients your body needs to thrive through food sources. Meeting that goal, however, requires a great deal of time and effort in planning, shopping for, and preparing healthy meals each and every day.

For most people, achieving optimal nutrition through food sources alone is a difficult goal to achieve. Supplements can help, but research shows that a large portion of supplement tablets and pills pass completely through your digestive system without being broken down. There’s no way to know how much entered your bloodstream.

IV therapy offers the chance to deliver a precise volume of a customized blend of nutrients without having to go through your digestive system. This means your practitioner can ensure you get exactly what you need, in the appropriate volume. 

IV therapy can help boost energy, immune function, workout recovery, and much more. 

What happens during IV therapy?

The process of having IV therapy is simple. You rest comfortably in the treatment chair while your practitioner uses a small needle to place the medical tubing into a vein on your hand or wrist. This is a quick process, and there is no significant discomfort. 

The other end of the tubing connects to the treatment bag filled with your customized solution. The solution slowly moves through the tubing and enters your bloodstream one drip at a time. You can read, listen to music, or just relax during your treatment. 

IV nutrition therapy treatments take less than an hour. You can resume your normal activities immediately after your visit. Many people report feeling immediate effects after IV nutrition treatments.

If you’re ready to give IV therapy a try, booking a visit takes just a few moments online or by phone.
