IV Therapy
What does wellness mean in the 21st century? The more we learn about how our bodies and brains work, the more we see that wellness isn’t just physical health. True wellness encompasses a vast range of factors that support your overall well-being, including everything from your energy levels to your emotions to your environment.
IV therapy can improve physical and mental wellness by giving your body the nourishment it needs to stay in top condition. When your body maintains the ideal balance of vitamins and nutrients for optimal function, you feel better, look better, perform better, get sick less frequently and enjoy greater mental clarity. Explore our treatment menu below and book an appointment at Young Naturopathic Center for Wellness to get started.
What Is IV Therapy?
When you think of an IV, you probably picture a hospital setting. You may have encountered one if you’ve ever had surgery or needed a trip to the emergency room. Even if you’ve never experienced one yourself, you’ve probably seen at least one movie character dramatically rip an IV out of their arm and bolt out of their hospital bed. Intravenous therapy has long been a staple in the medical field.
In recent years, IVs have grown beyond hospital use and become increasingly popular in the wellness world. An IV delivers fluid directly to a vein. This route is an ultra-efficient way to deliver vital nutrients rapidly and safely into your body. Our patients often come in feeling exhausted and run-down, and leave with renewed energy and a newfound excitement to take on their days.
Why Is IV Therapy Beneficial?
Even if you eat well and exercise regularly, your body can be depleted of critical nutrients it needs to remain at peak performance. Proper hydration and nourishment are essential for an active metabolism, balanced hormone levels, regular sleep patterns, healthy skin and hair, a strong immune system, a positive mindset and other pillars of wellness, inside and out. IV therapy replaces missing nutrients safely, effectively and with zero downtime.
Intravenous delivery is the fastest way to deliver fluids, electrolytes, vitamins and minerals to the body. IV infusions are absorbed directly into your bloodstream, making their contents rapidly and fully bioavailable to you. That is a pronounced improvement over the slow absorption and limited bioavailability of nutrients obtained through oral supplements. Our patients have life- changing results, sometimes after their first bag — it’s no wonder IV therapy is one of our most popular treatments.

How Does IV Therapy Work?
IV infusion is a straightforward, nearly painless treatment. Before a session, you will consult with one of our wellness experts to determine which IV blend is best based on your symptoms and desired well-being improvements. We have many infusions to choose from, and if your situation is unique, we will gladly create a customized formula just for you.
Your provider will insert an IV catheter into one of the veins in your arm. Most people feel only a small pinch when the needle enters the vein. The rest of the treatment is comfortable, so you can sit back and relax until it’s complete. Vitamins and nutrients will slowly drip from the bag into your bloodstream through the IV line. The typical session takes 30 minutes to an hour, and you’ll be able to continue your day immediately afterward.
