    IV Therapy & Vitamin Infusions

    IV therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream for 100% bioavailability — bypassing the digestive system. Popular formulations include the 'Myers' Cocktail' (B vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium, calcium), NAD+ infusions for anti-aging and energy, glutathione for skin brightening, and custom formulations for immunity, athletic recovery, hangover relief, and beauty. IV therapy has grown from a celebrity trend to a mainstream wellness service offered at medspas, dedicated IV lounges, and even mobile services.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does IV therapy really work?
    IV therapy delivers nutrients directly to your bloodstream with 100% absorption, compared to 20–50% for oral supplements. Many patients report feeling more energized, hydrated, and well. However, scientific evidence for some specific claims (hangover cure, immunity boosting) is still evolving.
    How often should I get IV therapy?
    For general wellness, monthly infusions are popular. For specific concerns (immune support during cold season, athletic recovery), weekly sessions may be recommended. Your provider will create a schedule based on your goals.
