How Does IV Vitamin Therapy Work?

IV stands for intravenous, or inside the veins. For most people, we might associate IV treatments with a trip to the hospital or a health clinic. Frequently IV treatments are used to help patients get fluids or other nutrients in their bodies. One reason IV treatments are done in a hospital setting is that it is a quicker and more effective way to get nutrients into the body than to wait for the process of digestion. In the last few years, IV Vitamin Therapy has become extremely popular outside of a hospital setting. IV Bars or health clinics have sprout up and many people from office employees to celebrities swear by them. In this article, we will talk about how IV Vitamin Therapy works, who it is right for, and the benefits of these treatments.

What Is IV Vitamin Therapy

IV Vitamin Therapy works by administrating a high dose of vitamins or minerals directly into someone’s bloodstream. Different vitamins and minerals can have different effects, so you will often have a choice between which IV Vitamin Therapy you receive. These are the same vitamins and minerals you can get from food or supplements, but a key benefit of IV Vitamin Therapy is that the minerals and vitamins are going straight into the bloodstream instead of through the process of digestion. IV Vitamin Therapy has been recommended for a variety of different physical and mental conditions including chronic fatigue, asthma, migraines, depression/anxiety, dehydration, and hangovers. Basically, any ailment or symptom that has been associated with deficiencies in vitamins and minerals can be treated with IV Vitamin Therapy.
