IV Hydration Therapy

IV hydration, or intravenous hydration, is a a growing health trend used to administer electrolyte-packed IV fluids directly into a patient’s bloodstream, and can be used for a number of reasons including dehydration, hangovers, jet lag and much more. In IV hydration, solutions containing saline, vitamins, minerals and nutrients are administered directly into the veins. The advantage of IV hydration over other forms of treatment is that it allows the medications to pass through the stomach and small intestines quickly and absorb directly into the bloodstream.

The benefits of IV hydration therapies include the following. First, IV hydration allows nutrients to be transported to the bloodstream at a more rapid rate vs if you were to take oral medication. Nutrients are fuel for the body, and when they are not transported to the bloodstream quickly, they are wasted. By speeding the delivery of nutrients to the bloodstream, IV hydration allows these nutrients to be utilized by cells within the body, increasing their health and helping to prevent damage to the body. Second, by speeding the transport of nutrients to the bloodstream, IV hydration helps to protect the GI tract from the damage caused by nutritional deficiencies. IV hydration treatments can last anywhere for 45 minutes to an hour long, and results can be seen almost immediately.

Some of the most common uses for IV hydration therapy are treating hangovers and improving athletic performance. If you are constantly pushing yourself to your physical limits, you could definitely benefit from an IV hydration therapy.
