IV Therapy

About

Intravenous therapy (IV) is a method of therapy that delivers fluids with important nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a vein. IV therapy is used to administer hydration, electrolytes, minerals, nutrients, and vitamins to patients quickly. It’s a therapy method that’s used not only to treat a wide array of health issues but also for beauty and overall fitness reasons too.

Details

What is IV Therapy?

IV therapy quickly provides an infusion of fluids, medications and vitamins to patients. This treatment is a great option for improving symptoms of dehydration, addressing lack of vitamins, and enhancing an anti-aging and revitalization plan.

Energy Immunity Infusion


High dose Vitamin C along with B Vitamins and minerals to help naturally boost

immunity and increase your own healing processes. A great option after long

travel times, jet lag, Illness exposure, pre-post-surgery or anytime you just feel

"worn down".  May add Glutathione for increased immunity effects.


Myer's Cocktail Infusion


A staple in IV nutritional therapy, a Myer's Cocktail is a blend of Vitamins to

help you feel rejuvenated, refreshed, and ready to tackle your day with

zest. Myers contains a range of B Vitamins, Magnesium, Calcium, non-corn

derived Vitamin C, and Methylcobalamin form of B12. Methylcobalamin is

the most bioavailable of the three forms of B12, and more easily processed

by the body.


Beauty Infusion


Vitamin C, Amino Acids and Glutathione help to increase collagen and

battle undamaged skin. Glutathione interrupts melanocyte production, and

with regular use can help address pigmentation issues due to sun damage,

post inflammation, and acne scarring.  A great addition to any invasive

beauty procedure to increase healing, while decreasing healing time and

reducing scarring 


All Therapies are subject to individual health status, and all treatments, therapies and infusions may be refused or recommended based on patients’ health status and medical indications.


Specialty Nutritional Infusions


Plaque X


Phosphatidylcholine (PC), is a healthy phospholipid that reduces

Cholesterol, detoxes the brain, and systemically improves cell membrane

function. Studies have shown that regular supplementation can significantly

reduce LDL cholesterol values. Best as a series (Lipids. 1985 Sep;20(9):561-6)


NAD+


NAD+ is a form of Vitamin B3. It had been shown to help reduce cravings

and has been used to decrease withdrawal related effects from addictive

substances, and long-term prescription use.  It is also integral to healthy

neurotransmitter function and may increase mood and clarity of mind. 

A great treatment for post TBI's and concussions (J Neurotrauma. 2012

May 1; 29(7): 1401–1409).


Also helps reduce blood pressure and stimulate metabolism. (Nat

Commun. 2018; 9: 1286).


Initial Therapy length can be recommended on an individual basis after a

personal consultation. 


High Dose Vitamin C


High dose vitamin C has been recognized as a preventative therapy for many

issues. Humans are one of just a few mammals that don't produce Vitamin C in our

liver. The best results are with a regular infusion series.  However, Very High dose

C on a regular basis can be harmful if certain genetic deficiencies are present. In

our High dose C program, we check for these deficiencies with a simple blood test

that has a 24–36-hour turnaround before exposing our patients to Very High Dose

Vitamin C therapy.
