What Is Intravenous Hydration Therapy?

IV hydration therapy is a quick, minimally invasive way to deliver fluids, electrolytes, and vitamins directly into your bloodstream. It bypasses the digestive system for faster absorption and more immediate results.

This treatment is ideal when your body needs fast support—whether you're recovering from illness, depleted from travel, or looking to optimize overall wellness.

What IV Hydration Helps Address

  • Dehydration
  • Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
  • Post-travel fatigue or jet lag
  • Low energy and brain fog
  • Muscle recovery after intense physical activity
  • Immune system support
  • Hangover symptoms

Am I a Good Candidate for Intravenous Hydration Therapy?

Candidacy is determined through a short consultation with a provider to understand your symptoms, health status, and goals. The treatment is safe for most healthy adults but should be guided by medical insight. The following are ideal candidates:

  • Individuals with frequent fatigue or dehydration.
  • People recovering from illness or travel.
  • Athletes who need faster muscle recovery.
  • Patients preparing for or recovering from surgery.
  • Adults with poor nutrient absorption or restrictive diets.

What to Expect During Intravenous Hydration Therapy

Every IV therapy begins with a consultation to tailor the formulation to your specific needs—hydration level, immunity, fatigue, or recovery.

1. You’ll relax in a private, comfortable setting
2. A licensed provider inserts a small IV catheter
3. Your personalized infusion is administered over 30–60 minutes
4. Most patients feel noticeably better before leaving the clinic

Intravenous Hydration Therapy Frequently Asked Questions

Can I receive IV hydration while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Some IV therapies may be safe during pregnancy or postpartum, but must be prescribed under medical supervision. Always disclose this in your consultation.

It depends on your goals. Some patients come weekly, others monthly, or only as needed. We’ll help establish a schedule that works for you.

Are there any side effects?

Mild side effects may include bruising at the insertion site or a metallic taste during infusion. Serious reactions are rare under medical supervision.
