Boost your immune system and improve your energy levels with IV therapy in Prosper. IV therapy, or intravenous therapy, involves administering hydration and nutrients directly to the bloodstream for immediate absorption by the body.
IV therapy is considered the quickest way to nourish the body, because the nutrients no longer need to go through the digestive system. Instead, they directly reach the organs for a 90% to 100% absorption rate.
What Is IV Therapy?
IV therapy’s history can be traced back to the medical professionals in the 1600s who first attempted to administer medications directly into the veins. Poor hygiene ruined the practice, causing the medical industry to abandon it.
It made a comeback as a lifesaving protocol during World War II. Still, it was only in the 1960s that Dr. John Myers used it to deliver vitamins and minerals to patients, turning it into the treatment it is today.
Typically, IV therapy is used for athletic performance recovery, inflammatory treatment, immunity support, nutrient absorption, digestion problem correction, flu and cold relief, and exhaustion treatment. It is also used to hydrate people quickly after an intense exercise routine or excessive alcohol consumption.
Am I a Good Candidate for IV Therapy?
Anyone who wants to improve their energy levels and wellness may get IV therapy. Patients who are nutrient-deficient, dehydrated, or unable to take their medicines orally are ideal candidates.
People with the following conditions can also benefit from this therapy:
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Migraine
- COPD
- Cancer
- Asthma
- Multiple sclerosis
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Parkinson’s disease
- Immunity disorders
- Muscle spasms
- Nutritional deficiencies
People with heart problems or kidney disease may not be ideal candidates for IV therapy, unless it comes with their doctor’s recommendation. This is because their organs may not be able to handle highly concentrated doses of vitamins and minerals.
Your IV Therapy Consultation
The consultation will likely include discussing your IV therapy goals, current energy and stress levels, and overall health. It will also determine if you are suitable for the treatment given your health concerns (if any). Make sure to tell us about your complete medical history, including current medications.
The Procedure
During the IV therapy session, an IV catheter will be inserted into a vein in the arm. It will then be attached to an IV drip bag containing the chosen vitamins and minerals. It usually takes 30 to 60 minutes to finish an IV drip; this helps the body absorb the nutrients more effectively.
After the Treatment Session
No recovery time is needed after treatment. The results of IV therapy usually take effect a few hours or days after a session, depending on the ingredients chosen for the treatment. You will continue to enjoy hydration and high energy levels for two to three weeks. Because of this, you will need to get IV treatments at least once a month to maintain your desired results.
How Much Does IV Therapy Cost?
The cost of getting IV therapy varies based on the cocktail of vitamins and minerals used. Make sure to ask about price during the consultation.
