What is IV treatment?
IV treatment uses special formulations of vitamins and minerals to support and promote optimal health and to help bolster the immune system so diseases and illnesses may be avoided. Today’s modern diets and hectic eating habits rarely include all the essential vitamins and nutrients needed for optimal health and wellness. The need for supplementation becomes even direr as the aging process kicks in, reducing the body’s ability to break down and absorb nutrients and during times of stress when the body’s immune system may be weakened. IV therapy is designed to supplement nutrient levels so the body has what it needs for optimum function.
How is IV therapy performed?
IV therapy delivers vitamins and minerals directly to the bloodstream, bypassing the gastrointestinal system where many nutrients are destroyed or aren’t adequately absorbed. Therapy consists of intravenous administration using injections or IV drips to ensure the nutrients enter the bloodstream whole without being adulterated by the digestive system or other biological processes.
What issues can be treated with IV therapy?
Vitamins and minerals are vital for every process performed by the body, and IV therapy has many applications. In addition to supporting general health and wellness, IV therapy is also used to treat or prevent:
- common colds and flu
- migraines and other chronic headaches
- asthma and allergies
- chronic fatigue
- adrenal fatigue
- hormonal imbalances
- cardiovascular disease
- immune system deficiencies and weaknesses
- fibromyalgia and other pain syndromes
- environmental toxicity
- some cancers
IV therapy is also commonly used to boost metabolism, enhancing other treatments and lifestyle changes, including weight loss and smoking cessation.
