What is IV Nutrition Therapy?
IV Nutrition Therapy is a method of delivering liquids and concentrations of substances to the body through a vein. It is often used to provide important hydration, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the body for optimal effect. IV nutrition therapy is a safe and effective way to achieve optimal health and wellness . It can also help prevent future health challenges.
What are the Benefits of IV Nutrition Therapy?
The benefits of IV Therapy are widespread. It can help increase energy levels, recover from jetlag, reduce inflammation, improved athletic performance and recovery, enhance immunity, increase hydration, improve ability to eliminate toxins, enhance weight loss efforts, improve cognition, improve mood, and even improve skin appearance.
IV drip therapy is one of the most effective ways to deliver nutrients, vitamins, and fluids to your body, and is more efficient than oral supplements. This technique bypasses your digestive system and is administered directly into your bloodstream. Resulting in a 90-100% absorption rate versus a 20-50% absorption rate when vitamins are taken orally. By using this method we can safely deliver larger doses that would not otherwise be tolerated orally. Your body is able to absorb the maximum amount of nutrients and fluids since nothing is lost as a result of the digestive process. In addition, vitamins and nutrients become immediately available to your cells for use for fast results.
An IV Therapy session can immediately and dramatically impact how you feel depending on the infusion. Many patients feel a burst of energy, sharper thinking, increased hydration, less “puffiness” from a reduction in inflammation, and more recovered from physical activity. Headaches, aches, and other pain may subside post-treatment, and can continue to improve with multiple infusions over the course of 3-4 weeks. IV Therapy can be beneficial as a single service to improve energy or improve general health on any given day, or it can be a part of a larger strategy to help improve chronic health conditions or longstanding nutrient imbalances. IV fluids don't usually stay in your body for more than several hours. The vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients in any given drip infusion will remain in your body for days, weeks, or months to come. It all depends on what exactly your body needs and what type of infusion you choose. Most people will see the greatest benefit if they receive IV therapy packages every two weeks. Because you receive higher quantities of nutrients through an IV, you can expect your nutrient levels to remain high for two to three weeks after an infusion. Typically, you can expect your system to feel the benefits for 2 to 3 weeks.
