Typically, almost anyone. We only treat adults in our facility and require that patient be at least 18 years of age to receive therapy. Your safety is our biggest concern and we do not treat patients with certain medical conditions such as heart failure, chronic kidney disease, cirrhosis, and patient’s who require care beyond our capabilities. You are welcome to call our clinic if you have questions about this. We will take your medical history prior to administering any treatments and make sure you are a good candidate for our specific therapies. IV fluids are completely safe in most healthy individuals. 

Many of the helpful effects from IV come from rapidly replacing fluids, electrolytes, medications, and vitamins to help you recover. This is more rapid than ingesting the ingredients because you bypass the gastrointestinal tract and have a faster rate of absorption and faster effect of the medications. It’s amazing how you will feel after your therapy.

All our IVs are started by board certified Nurses. You will have an experienced Professional.

Any time there is a needle physically entering the skin, there is a small risk of infection, bleeding, bruising, and slight pain. We do all we can to avoid these common side effects including proper prep, proper needle size and using trained professionals. Some people may have allergies to specific medications. We take a comprehensive history to reduce the chance of giving medications you may be allergic to. If an allergy does happen, we will take the proper steps to correct the problem. Receiving an IV safe when done by a trained professional with a proper history, physical, assessment and plan.

Bruising is not usually common after an IV but can sometimes happen anytime a needle enters the skin. Blood can accumulate under the skin from small amounts of blood leaking outside of the vein. This can sometimes leave a small bruise with discoloration or small hematoma (solid swelling or clotted blood within the tissues). Bruising and hematomas usually improve within a few hours to a few days as your body reabsorbs that blood and breaks it down. 

Our IV’s do not contain medications that you can overdose on. All the components are metabolized fairly quickly. People can technically receive IV therapy on a daily basis if they required this, however this would be very rare and based on your body requirements and symptoms. It may be common for people to receive therapy once or twice a week.

We have specific protocols for specific symptoms and treatments. We have a medical director who is a trained physician and is available for any case if needed.
