What is IV Nutrition?
People with compromised digestion often have difficulty absorbing the nutrients they need to heal. By using intravenous therapies (IVs) we can bypass the gut and get health-giving nutrients into the bloodstream within minutes. IVs also deliver nutrients in concentrations that are higher than oral supplements allowing us to achieve medicinal or therapeutic doses. Most patients experience profound results from IVs including increased energy and focus, improved immunity, increased circulation, and rapid wound healing.
Who Can benefit from IV therapy?
IV therapy is customized for each individual to address specific medical concerns. IV therapy can successfully increase the health of those with:
- fatigue
- colds and flus
- poor concentration
- heavy metal toxicity
- leaky gut
- nutritional deficiencies or detoxification issues
IV therapy can also be used in conjunction with other treatments to support patients with cancer, head injury, autoimmunity, peripheral neuropathy, pain and central inflammation, and heart disease. After a thorough medical intake our doctors will design an IV protocol that fits the individual needs of the patient.
