What is IV Therapy?

IV therapy is the administration of intravenous fluids and can include a mixture of IV vitamins, IV minerals, IV supplements like antioxidants or amino acids, and IV medications. The specific blend or treatment you receive will be tailored to your specific symptoms, your health, and wellness goals.  Our IV therapy is administered by a Registered Phlebotomist and typically takes about 30-40 minutes per liter of IV fluids.

Why is IV therapy better than oral fluids, medications, or supplements?

When you receive fluids, medications, and supplements via IV therapy, they bypass digestion and go directly into the bloodstream. The benefits of this are-

  • Faster uptake: Instant uptake of fluids, medications, and supplements by your body, so you feel better quicker.

  • Better absorption: Your body can better absorb vitamins, medications, and supplements via IV compared to via oral methods like pills (~50% of the vitamin is absorbed orally, while ~90% is absorbed in IV form).

  • Acute illness: When you're nauseous, have vomiting, or diarrhea, staying hydrated orally can be difficult.

  • Chronic illness: Bypassing digestion can be helpful - even necessary - for many sufferers of chronic illnesses, particularly those that impair digestive organs like IBS, IBD, GERD, Crohn's disease, Celiac disease, and Colitis. 

  • Age: Our ability to digest and absorb vitamins from pills - and from food itself - gets worse as we age, and can lead to deficiencies. Even mild deficiencies in certain vitamins can lead to fatigue, brain fog, and faster aging.

  • Lifestyle: Lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol, and drug use can impact your ability to absorb the nutrients from pills, while at the same time depleting your body of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in order to process these toxins.

  • Diet: People on restrictive diets may not get enough of certain vitamins and minerals from food.

Are there side effects?

Side effects may include:

  • Minor swelling/pain at the injection site.

  • Minor bleeding/bruise at injection site.
