IV Nutrient Therapy

This blog gives a quick introduction to IV Nutrient Therapy. This is becoming more common and there are a number of businesses that focus on nutrient therapy. Some businesses will travel right to your home to administer your nutrient therapy via a licensed nurse. Always work with your doctor to determine if this is right for you. I have found this treatment to be very beneficial in times of high stress, sickness, or just needing a boost of energy. Here are some details:

What is Intravenous (IV) Nutrient Therapy?

IV Nutrient therapy is a treatment that delivers nutrients, fluids, and vitamins directly into the bloodstream via an IV drip to support the body.

Why would I need this type of therapy?

An individual may need this therapy if:

  • Their digestive system is unable to absorb nutrients due to various conditions occurring within the body

  • They have nutrient deficiencies

  • They need to support their body to recover from an illness, injury or support their bodies if going through chemotherapy treatments

  • They need more energy

How do I know if I need this therapy?

I recommend visiting a naturopathic physician if you think you have a nutrient deficiency. Not all nutrient deficiencies require IV Therapy and can be treated through supplementation. Some signs of nutrient deficiencies are:

  • Brittle nails and hair

  • Mouth Ulcers or cracks in the corners of the mouth

  • Bleeding Gums

  • Poor night vision or white growths on the eyes

  • Scaly patches and dandruff

  • Hair loss

  • Red or white bumps on the skin

  • Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS)

If you, or someone you know, are experiencing digestive imbalances, book a consult and let’s do a deep dive and find out what your body is telling you.
