Enjoy the benefits!

IV therapy is simple. We are introducing different vitamins, nutrients, electrolytes, and other health promoting substances into the body through a vein. It is an easy and often relaxing process that many patients use as part of their desire to stay healthy and improve how they feel and function.

Liquid health straight into the blood!

With a vitamin infusion, your body receives nutrients directly into the bloodstream. This bypasses the digestive system, which would otherwise lower the amount of vitamins your body can absorb. With drip hydration, nutrients are instantly available, so your body can absorb 100% of what it needs before passing along the rest to your kidneys to be flushed out.

1. IV Drips Can Promote Weight Loss

It’s no secret that losing weight can be hard — hence why many people turn to IV therapy to boost their weight loss efforts. The three key supplements we use at Aspire that aid the weight loss process are:

• Carnitine

• Alpha-lipoic acid

• Vitamin C

Carnitine

This amino acid that turns fat into fuel. It delivers fats to the mitochondria, our cells’ powerhouses to break them down and use them as energy. Carnitine is a conditionally essential nutrient, meaning we can get enough from our diet, but certain people cannot, including vegans and people with a medical condition that inhibits nutrient absorption.

Alpha-Lipoic Acid

Alpha-lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant found in every cell in the body. This organic compound also works with the body’s mitochondria to boost metabolism, prevent inflammation, eliminate toxins, and reverse some of the oxidant (free radical) damage related to aging. Our bodies naturally synthesize this compound but only in small amounts. Thus, an IV infusion with this supplement can promote higher metabolism.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C status is inversely related to body mass. Individuals with adequate vitamin C status oxidize 30% more fat during a moderate exercise bout than individuals with low vitamin C status; thus, vitamin C depleted individuals may be more resistant to fat mass loss.

4. IV Therapy Can Help Ease Anxiety & Promote Relaxation

In addition to providing you with more energy, IV therapy can make you feel more at ease. Magnesium sulfate is an electrolyte that helps lower blood pressure and also may help:

• Calm your feelings of anxiety

• Promote a good night’s sleep

• Relaxes your muscles

• Supports immune function

• Prevent migraines and headaches

Magnesium sulfate is also used in other non-IV applications such as Epsom salt treatments, which have similar calming effects.

6. IV Therapy Can Cleanse Your Body of Unwanted Toxins & Free Radicals

Besides curing hangovers and providing you with essential nutrients, IV drip therapy can also cleanse and detox your body of toxins and free radicals that can damage cells and DNA and promote aging. Since antioxidants keep toxins and free radicals in check, the most popular options in IV therapy include:

• Vitamin C

• Glutathione

• Alpha-lipoic acid

Vitamin C

Needing no introduction, Vitamin C is an essential antioxidant that protects your overall well-being and immune system. It also helps protect your body from free radicals by neutralizing them before they have the chance to damage cells.

Glutathione

Another important antioxidant that helps lower oxidative stress (free radicals), glutathione also has a plethora of other health benefits. It has shown promising results for improving symptoms caused by conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and fatty liver disease. It may also fight infections and cleanse the liver of unwanted toxins that can damage liver cells.

Alpha-Lipoic Acid

More than just a weight loss aid, it can also protect your body from cell damage caused by free radicals.

2. IV Hydration Can Cure Hangover Symptoms

Not only are hangovers painful and annoying, but they are also associated with poor job performance and conflict at work. Thankfully, IV hydration helps quickly resolve common hangover symptoms, such as:

• Dehydration

• Headaches or muscle aches

• Brain fog or fatigue

• Excessive thirst

• Nausea, vomiting or stomach pain

IV fluids that help replenish the water you lost when drinking too much the night before. They also contain electrolytes, most commonly in the form of sodium chloride, which help relieve symptoms of dehydration, including fatigue, dizziness and thirst.

3. Drip Hydration Can Increase Your Energy Levels

IV vitamin therapy can also provide your body with a natural boost of energy. Nutrients like amino acids can help you replace the constant need for coffee, soda, and other caffeinated drinks that can otherwise flood your body with unnecessary sugar.

Amino Acids

Found within our IV infusions operate on a cellular level, amino acids work with the mitochondria to convert fatty acids in our body into energy. With this energy, we can get through the day or power through an intense workout. Amino acids like tri amino and arginine also help build muscle protein. This treatment can over time reduce chronic fatigue and weakness.

5. IV Vitamin Therapy May Help Treat Certain Nutrient Deficiencies

In hospitals, IV nutrient therapy helps people who aren’t able or are too sick to eat. It is also an effective treatment for certain health conditions that can cause nutrient deficiencies, such as:

• Crohn’s disease

• Celiac disease

• Colon cancer

• Short bowel syndrome

• Cystic fibrosis

  Oftentimes, people living with these conditions cannot get the nutrients they need from oral supplements or their diet. Thus, IV therapy benefits them because it bypasses the digestive system entirely and provides nutrients to cells immediately.

7. IV Therapy Can Improve Your Immune Function And Help Fight Sickness

During therapy, the slow intravenous infusion allows you to receive increased concentrations of nutrients into the bloodstream, which aren’t attainable with oral or intramuscular administration. Some of these immune-boosting vitamins and nutrients include Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), B complex vitamins, Magnesium, and Glutathione. The key ingredient in boosting your immune system against viral infections is Vitamin C, also known as Ascorbic Acid. It is important during these times to understand that a preventative treatment strategy can be a great defense for your immune system. Many hospitals around the country are utilizing IV Vitamin C as an adjunct to treatment in COVID-19 patients.

This intravenous infusion of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids has been utilized for decades to help boost the immune system to fight off infection and treat a variety of conditions such as respiratory infections and the common cold.
