IV Therapy

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, more commonly referred to as NAD+, is found in every cell in the body and is essential to life. As a coenzyme to Vitamin B3, NAD+ participates in more reactions than any other vitamin-derived molecule. It helps transfer the energy we get from food to the rest of our body and is a cornerstone to maintaining healthy internal organs and neurological systems. Research has shown that NAD+ IV therapy has a unique ability to protect tissues, induce DNA repair, and help increase lifespan. NAD iv therapy benefits include, but are not limited to, supporting cellular energy production, aiding brain function, encouraging healthy metabolic function, improving normal liver function, and promoting healthy aging.

Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient needed for growth and repair of all the tissues of the body. This super-nutrient boosts antioxidant levels so your immune system is better at fighting inflammation and oxidative stress. Vitamin C is also important for healthy skin and can give you a quick pick-me-up when you are feeling a little run down. If you feel run down, get sick often, and want to prevent disease, then vitamin C IV therapy is the infusion for you.

Glutathione is called the “Master Antioxidant” due to its detoxifying, immune-supporting, and anti-aging properties. Glutathione does this by binding to and eliminating free radicals from the body.

Chelation therapy is a process in which EDTA binds to heavy metals and minerals from the blood, such as lead, iron, copper, and calcium.

MIC Injections are a combination of compounds (Methionine, Inositol, and Choline) that work synergistically to mobilize and process fat in the liver to be used as energy. MIC Injections increase metabolism, reduce stored body fat, increase energy, and maintain a healthy liver.

Vitamin B12 is essential in the building of blood cells, maintaining healthy nerve cells, and the formation of DNA in the body. B12 Injections rapidly elevate Vitamin B12 levels in the body giving you more energy, improved concentration and mood, better sleep patterns, and increased metabolism.

Intravenous (IV) nutritional therapy is the process of administering a collection of vitamins, electrolytes, amino acids, and nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a vein. IVs have long been a part of medical treatment since they became a common solution for patient care during the mid-1800s. In the 1940s, modern IV treatment as seen today came into view.

IV nutritional therapy, sometimes called IV hydration therapy, drip therapy, or IV vitamin therapy, has gained significant attention in the last few years as more individuals are seeking out these infusions. As a low-risk therapy, IV nutrition affords people a treatment that is safe, low-time consuming, and beneficial to their health in a variety of ways. Unfortunately today, many of us do not have diets that contain the right amount of nutrients and vitamins. We lack adequate sleep, have high stress levels, and do not get enough physical exercise. Lifestyle concerns like these lead many individuals to have a weakened immune system, become nutrient deficient, and develop illness and/or chronic fatigue.

As a fast and efficient way to replenish chronically depleted nutrient reserves, IV nutritional therapy has shown signs of being an effective method for treating a wide variety of conditions such as flu-like symptoms and jet lag, all the way to more serious health issues like fibromyalgia and Parkinson’s Disease. The body requires a certain level of vitamins and nutrients to properly function, and when starved of these vital minerals the body begins to experience breakdowns. Therefore, many individuals are seeking out IV nutrition as a part of their own personal wellness routine. Additionally, due to the holistic benefits of IV nutritional therapy more healthcare providers are recommending the treatment to their patients. We also offer hormone treatment therapy as well.

IV nutritional therapy works by introducing nutrients directly into the bloodstream, avoiding the gastrointestinal system, allowing higher volumes of the nutrients to be absorbed by cells. For example, vitamins consumed via diet or pill introduce is not absorbed at 100% and may not be absorbed at all depending on the health of the intestines. Whereas IVs can provide the body with higher quantities of nutrients needed to properly replenish the body’s deficiencies or assist the body in functioning at 100% every time.

Commonly, the body will lack proper levels of nutrients like vitamin C, D, B12, magnesium, and more. These compromised nutrient levels can lead to individuals becoming more susceptible to disease, fatigue, and other health ailments. Through IV treatments, an individual’s health can be optimized and restored to proper vitamin levels.

A nutritional therapy session involves a consultation with our Nurse Practitioner who will review your medical health history and goals and then will select the right IV option for your specific condition. This is a significant piece to IV therapy being successful as not just any nutrient cocktail can work for every condition or group of symptoms. Depending on the IV and the condition, an infusion can last anywhere from 20 minutes to several hours.

Based on the individual, some people receive an IV treatment weekly to best maintain their vitamin levels, stay hydrated, and protect their overall wellbeing. On the other hand, some may only seek IV nutritional therapy when they are experiencing illness. Either way, it is important to consult with a medical professional regarding your nutrient and vitamin levels as excessive mineral amounts can also pose danger and illness to you
