I.V. Therapy

Millions of people wake up every morning feeling tired, depressed, and in constant pain.  To make matters worse, chronic stress and daily exposure to processed foods trigger inflammation in our bodies. Inflammation is the root cause of so many health problems; it confuses the immune system and robs us of our energy. Research shows that when inflammation is out of control, we not only suffer physical ailments, our brain and mental health suffer as well.

Having adequate vitamins and minerals is essential for your body to heal. Intravenous (I.V.) Nutrient Therapy delivers key building blocks to repair your body and protects against the negative effects of inflammation.

How Does Intravenous (I.V) Therapy Heal My Body?

When our body is sick, under stress or suffering from digestive issues, it cannot absorb nutrients efficiently through our gut. This becomes a problem because in order for the body to heal, it need needs these nutrients to repair at the cellular level.

Intravenous (I.V.) Therapy is the delivery of nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids) directly into the bloodstream through a small needle. The bloodstream delivers the nutrients to the needed cells and organ systems in the body. Once the cell has the appropriate nutrients, it will create energy and function as a healthy cell again.

What is the Difference Between I.V. Therapy and Taking Oral Vitamins and Minerals?

Under normal conditions, oral supplementation of vitamins and minerals will meet the needs of the general population. However, many of our patients have digestive issues that prevent the proper absorption of nutrients into the body.   I.V. Therapy can effectively replenish the body’s nutrients. 

I.V. Therapy delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream and can achieve blood concentrations of vitamins and minerals far higher than any oral supplements.
