HOW DOES IV THERAPY WORK?
Intravenous (or IV) therapy is a safe way to obtain high doses of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants.
IV therapy delivers a compound of nutrients (which is the treatment) through the veins and into the circulatory system. The compound then passes through the bloodstream – directly addressing nutritional issues – while bypassing the stomach and intestines.
Because the compound is delivered immediately into the bloodstream and not swallowed, IV therapy may assist you in tackling nutritional deficiencies swiftly and without side effects. Sometimes high-dosed oral supplements, especially vitamin C and magnesium, may lead to uncomfortable side effects, such as nausea, diarrhea and cramping.
Patients with the following conditions may benefit from nutritional IV therapy:
-
Allergies
-
Cancer adjunctive care
-
Chronic fatigue syndrome
-
Chronic Lyme disease
-
Malabsorption from digestive disorders (i.e. Crohn’s disease, colitis and Celiac disease)
-
Low immune function
-
Low mood
-
Viral infections (mononucleosis, shingles, colds and flus)
-
Migraines
-
Multiple sclerosis
How Would IV Therapy Benefit Me?
Intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy is an effective way to help you achieve faster and better results when it comes to your health. By administering vitamins and minerals directly into the blood stream, we bypass the stomach overcoming any absorption limitations, which allows us to achieve significant pharmacological doses not attainable by taking supplements orally.
When this happens the cells are saturated with nutrients, promoting the healing and repair process to take place. In this way IV therapy promotes optimal cellular function and also significantly improves the detoxification pathways by eliminating toxins from the body.
High quality ingredients, no preservatives, quality tested
