Are you struggling with fatigue or low energy? Do you feel like you always catch whatever illness is going around? Are your joints achy or are you suffering from long Covid? IV therapy can help.
Our wellness team at Potomac Shores Mental Health and Wellness in Woodbridge, Virginia, offers this intravenous infusion of vitamins, minerals, and other vital nutrients to help optimize your health.
IV therapy involves the administration of fluids, vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial substances directly into your veins. This has a powerful effect on your overall health and wellness.
What should I know about IV therapy?
IV, or intravenous, therapy delivers nutrients directly into your bloodstream. By bypassing the digestive system, this method ensures that the body receives 100% of the infused nutrients, maximizing their absorption and utilization.
When you take supplements or nutrients orally, they must first pass through the digestive system before being used by the cells that need them. This can considerably hinder nutrient absorption. By delivering nutrients directly to your veins, IV therapy avoids the digestive system, ensuring maximum effectiveness and immediate results.
What’s it like to get IV therapy?
Before beginning any IV therapy, our experienced health care professionals conduct a thorough assessment of your medical history, lifestyle, and specific wellness goals. This evaluation helps us tailor the IV treatment to meet your needs effectively.
Based on the assessment, our wellness team recommends a customized IV formula. These formulas may include a combination of vitamins, such as vitamin C, B-complex vitamins, antioxidants like glutathione, minerals, amino acids, and hydration solutions. We provide a combination of nutrients to replenish and revitalize your immune system, assist with weight loss, and rehydrate your body.
Once your IV bag is prepared with the desired combination of nutrients, your provider inserts a sterile catheter into a vein, usually in the arm. The IV drip then slowly infuses into your bloodstream. Treatments can take 30 minutes to an hour. Some infusions may take slightly longer.
As you experience the IV therapy session, you relax comfortably. Feel free to nap, watch a movie, read, or work on your phone.
