IV Therapy Q & A

What is IV therapy?

IV therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients directly into your bloodstream through an IV line. This method helps restore nutrient balance, boost your immune system, increase energy, and support overall health.

IV therapy can also boost metabolism, support fat breakdown, and improve nutrient processing in your body.

IV therapy is low risk and causes virtually no discomfort. Other than a slight scratch as the needle enters your vein, you shouldn’t feel anything. You simply relax in comfort as the infusion passes into your body.

How does IV therapy work?

An IV drip sends a blend of nutrients directly into your bloodstream. Because it bypasses the gut, these nutrients are immediately available to your cells, helping you feel the effects almost right away. Common ingredients in IV therapy include:

  • B vitamins
  • Vitamin C
  • Magnesium
  • Amino acids
  • Antioxidants

The Metabolic Medical Center team can also personalize treatments to help you meet your health goals.

Why choose IV therapy over oral supplements?

When you swallow vitamins or minerals and they go through your digestive system, you could lose up to 80% of their strength. IV therapy bypasses this process, allowing your body to absorb 100% of the nutrients. This means faster, more effective results.

In addition, if you have digestive issues or sensitivity to oral supplements, IV therapy can help you avoid stomach upsets.

What are the benefits of IV therapy?

IV therapy’s benefits include the following:

  • Rapid hydration and nutrient delivery
  • Increased energy and better focus
  • Stronger immune system
  • Faster recovery from illness, exercise, or fatigue
  • Detoxification and improved skin health
  • Supporting weight loss

Many people notice glowing skin, improved mental clarity, and more energy after treatment. Certain IV formulas can even help fight free radicals, which play a role in aging.
