IV Therapy Q & A
What is IV nutrition therapy?
Intravenous (IV) nutrition therapy is a treatment that delivers carefully formulated nutrient blends directly into your bloodstream. It’s an excellent way to boost your nutrition at the cellular level and can improve a wide range of health and wellness conditions.
Some of the applications of IV nutrition therapy include:
- Immune system boost
- Weight loss
- Workout recovery
- Fighting fatigue
- Enhanced cognitive function
- Improved sleep quality
- Overall wellness boost
- Chronic pain management
- Hangover recovery
At Renew Medical, IV nutrition therapy is customized to meet your specific set of needs. NAD+ infusions, vitamin C therapy, and immunity-boosting drips are among the most popular forms of IV therapy.
How is IV nutrition therapy better than supplements?
You can certainly get most of the nutrients your body needs through food sources. However, you need to plan, prepare, and consume a high-quality, unprocessed diet rich in lean proteins, vegetables, and fruit to reach optimal nutrition levels.
In reality, maintaining such a healthy diet is challenging, especially for people who also have to juggle family, career, and community obligations. IV nutrition therapy provides a high dose of targeted nutrients that are immediately available to your cells.
IV nutrition therapy delivers nutrients directly into your bloodstream, bypassing your digestive system entirely. It also has the added benefit of delivering an intense and immediate hydration boost, which is part of why so many people report feeling immediately more alert and invigorated after sessions.
Is it painful to have IV therapy?
Having an IV placed is a simple and straightforward process in the hands of a skilled practitioner like naturopathic physician Emma Doody, ND.
The other end of the tubing is connected to the IV bag that contains your customized IV nutrition blend. The solution moves through the tubing and into your bloodstream one drip at a time. You can rest and relax during your treatment, and many people listen to music or read.
Once the IV bag is empty, it takes just a few seconds to remove the tubing and place a small bandage over the site. You can then resume normal daily activities and will feel refreshed and renewed.
If you’d like to see for yourself what all the buzz is about surrounding IV nutrition therapy, scheduling a visit is as simple as a phone call or a visit to the online booking page.
