The Health Benefits of IV Therapy

In a perfect world, we would obtain all the nutrients we need from our regular diets. We would feel great, sleep well, have energy, and be able to fight off whatever sicknesses came our way.

But, as we all know, our world is anything but perfect, and our diets are anything but ideal. We struggle to put together anything resembling a healthy, balanced diet because we are so busy, and our food supply doesn’t do us any nutritional favors.

Sounds pretty bleak, but there is indeed a new method to supplement our nutritional needs in a quick, relaxing way: IV (intravenous) therapy. At Skin Med Spa, our expert team can make your IV therapy treatment one of the best parts of your week. Here’s a look at the health benefits you can expect from IV therapy.

What is IV therapy?

IV therapy provides nutrients and minerals that your body is missing because of an unbalanced diet, stress, sickness, and even poor sleep. A needle inserted directly into your veins starts the fluids flowing straight into your bloodstream.

IV therapy is not designed to replace a healthy diet and lifestyle, but it can be an effective supplement for those times in your life when you aren’t getting what you need from your regular sources.

It’s an effective treatment for the following conditions, among many others: stress and burnout, chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson’s Disease, anti-aging, migraines and tension headaches, chronic diseases, muscle spasms, anxiety, and much more. 

What are the benefits?

Most treatments last around 30 minutes and prove to be relaxing for our patients. You can often feel a difference in your body immediately. Taking vitamins and supplements orally is less effective because they must travel through the digestive system before they reach your body’s cells. This is a slow process that limits the impact of the nutrients.

IV therapy solves this problem by injecting the solutions into the bloodstream, which allows the nutrients to reach the cells directly in a much faster manner. Within a few hours, many patients report thinking more clearly already.

In addition, IV therapy has shown many other health benefits: increased energy and decreased brain fog, a stronger immune system, quicker wound healing, lower levels of tissue and nerve-related pain, a cleaner, detoxified body, hydration, lower anxiety levels, clearer skin, decreased recovery times in athletes, reduced migraines and muscle spasms, reduced muscle and joint pain, and better healing from bacterial, fungal, and viral infections.

IV therapy is also a fantastic preventive measure. The healthier and stronger the body is, the better able it is to fight off disease.
