​2. ​What’s the difference between IV therapy and taking oral supplements?

IV therapy delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream, allowing for faster and more efficient absorption. Oral supplements must go through the digestive system, where some nutrients may be lost or absorbed slowly.

3. How often should I get IV therapy?

Frequency depends on individual needs. Some people may benefit from weekly sessions, while others may only need it occasionally for a boost or recovery.

​

4. Who can benefit from IV therapy?

IV therapy is beneficial for those needing hydration, individuals with vitamin or nutrient deficiencies, athletes, people recovering from illness, and anyone seeking to boost their overall health and well-being.

​​

5. How long does an IV therapy session take?

A typical session lasts between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the type of therapy being administered.

​​

6. Does IV therapy hurt?

The only discomfort is usually the insertion of the IV needle, which feels like a small pinch. Once the IV is in, most people feel comfortable throughout the session.

​​

7. Are there any side effects?

Side effects are rare but may include mild pain, bruising at the injection site, or a metallic taste during some infusions. Serious side effects are uncommon if the treatment is done properly.
