Vitamin IV therapy is a wellness treatment that helps restore optimal nutritional balance within your bloodstream. If you’ve ever been in an emergency room or hospital setting, you’re probably already familiar with how medical teams use IV therapy to administer fluids and medications.
The process involves using a needle to place a thin piece of medical tubing into a vein on your hand or wrist. The other end of that tubing connects to a bag that holds a saline solution and carefully chosen micronutrients. This solution enters your bloodstream one drip at a time.
What are the benefits of vitamin IV therapy?
Vitamin IV therapy is highly customizable. Your practitioner guides you toward the options that best align with your current set of needs.
Some of the areas of focus within vitamin IV therapy include:
- Immune boost
- Anti-fatigue
- Weight loss
- Hangover recovery
- Cognitive function
- Workout recovery
- Skin glow
- Jet lag
- Headache recovery
Many people choose vitamin IV therapy, also called IV nutrition or IV hydration therapy, to give their systems an immediate boost of the vitamins and minerals needed to thrive.
Vitamin IV therapy allows you and your practitioner to know exactly how much of each nutrient is entering your bloodstream, which is impossible using oral supplements. Because the nutrients do not have to navigate your digestive system, you get the full effects.
What should I expect during vitamin IV therapy sessions?
You begin by discussing your current health and what you hope to accomplish through treatment. Once you and your practitioner decide on a vitamin IV therapy treatment, you simply rest in the treatment chair as your practitioner uses a needle to place the tubing into your vein.
You might feel a pinch as the needle enters your skin, but there is no significant pain. It takes just a moment for the IV to be placed and secured with a small piece of surgical tape. You can read, listen to music, or relax as your treatment progresses.
Many people report immediate improvements, even before their IV therapy is finished. That’s likely due to the instant hydration boost delivered during treatment. Most people move through each day in a state of mild dehydration.
