What is IV Therapy?

IV therapy or IV vitamin therapy is a health and wellness treatment that gives patients a rapid infusion of fluids vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and nutrients. IV therapies allow for nearly immediate results because IV therapy bypasses the gastric system (stomach). Nutrients are immediately absorbed into the bloodstream and patients do not have to wait for the effects as they are digested.

There are various IV drips available with combinations of ingredients to boost energy, the immune system, metabolism, and more. Other choices include anti-aging drips or rehydrating drips. IV therapy can flush toxins from the body, balance hormonal levels, boost immunity, improve skin health, and give the body a needed energy boost. Although you may have heard concerns about the safety of IV therapy, this is a safe treatment when performed by a medical professional like our nurse practitioner, Dana, and it offers many benefits with immediate and long-term impact.

Who is a Candidate for IV Therapy

Since IV therapy offers a wide range of IV drip options and the majority of these vitamins and minerals are naturally found in the body, most patients can undergo IV therapy. This medical treatment has been used to treat a variety of medical conditions and concerns, including migraines, sinus problems, pain, allergies, fatigue, and decreased athletic performance.

IV Therapy Treatment

IV therapy is quick and relatively painless. Dana first discusses each patient’s medical history to ensure a safe treatment with the right blend of vitamins and nutrients. Patients will sit comfortably in our office while a needle is inserted in their arms to administer the IV bag. You can relax, bring a book, listen to music, or do some work while you wait for the infusion to complete.
