What exactly is IV therapy?
IV therapy is a delivery method for various fluids and medication. “IV” stands for “intravenous,” meaning it’s administered through the veins. The fluid containing vitamins and minerals or medication is delivered into your veins, which allows it to quickly move through your bloodstream.
How does IV therapy work?
For your appointment, you’ll be seated somewhere comfortable. An IV is inserted into your vein, typically your arm. The fluid from your IV bag can be delivered through a few different methods, including an injection with a syringe, or infusion (otherwise known as a drip), that will be delivered via a manual or electronic pump.
Once inside your body, the fluid from the IV bag will be absorbed directly into your bloodstream. This is the fastest way to get vitamins and medications into the bloodstream, as this method typically delivers medication much faster than oral administration.
What type of fluids are used in IV therapy?
The fluid inside your IV bag can be different depending on the type of therapy or treatment you’re undergoing, as different needs require different benefits. Some common components used in IV therapy include:
- Saline
- Dextrose
- Vitamin B
- Vitamin C
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Antioxidants
- Antibiotics
- And more!
What are the benefits of IV therapy?
IV therapy can be used to provide relief for a variety of ailments. Some common uses of IV therapy include hangover relief, athletic performance recovery, immune system support, pregnancy symptom alleviation, and migraine and headache relief. The goal at the end of your session is to feel better and feel rejuvenated.
The main benefits of IV therapy are that it’s easy and convenient, as the process is simple, fairly quick, relatively painless, doesn’t require a trip to the doctor’s office, and is available in a pinch. IV therapy also promotes overall health and wellness, which can keep you balanced and hydrated.
