IV Therapy Explained


IV Therapy is a type of treatment that delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals and medication directly to your bloodstream via an intravenous (IV) line. IV Therapy is offered at hospitals, clinics, and even some spas. It is also available as a concierge service where the IV specialist comes to your home or office.

What is IV in medical terms?

A medical professional will ask you questions about your health history and do a physical assessment before allowing you to begin the treatment. Once you are cleared, they will sanitize the area on your arm where the needle will be placed and locate a vein. 417 INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE will then connect the IV to a bag of fluid and allow you to relax while the fluids are delivered into your body.

You may feel a slight pinch or pressure at the point of insertion. Once the IV is connected, you will be able to read, watch TV or listen to music while your body absorbs the fluids and nutrients.

If you’re suffering from a hangover, an IV can help reduce nausea, vomiting and diarrhea by delivering hydration, antacids and anti-nausea medications directly into your body. It can also treat muscle aches and migraines by providing pain relief, hydration and magnesium that isn’t reliant on your stomach to get absorbed.

Athletes often use IVs to hydrate and replenish lost nutrients after a long workout or race. These customized IVs are formulated with a mix of electrolytes, vitamins and other essential supplements that can be customized to your unique needs.
