The absence of toxins is a prerequisite for health, but so is the presence of nutrients. Eating the right foods isn’t always possible and does not guarantee that you are getting everything your body needs. IV nutrition therapy feeds amino acids, vitamins, minerals directly into the blood stream, by-passing the digestive tract where much of the nutritional value of foods and supplements can be lost. Unlike oral supplements, IV therapy delivers concentrated amounts of nutrients that would otherwise cause digestive discomfort or even illness.

IV nutritional therapy is perfect for individuals looking to improve their overall health, improve athletic performance, reduce the effects of aging, manage stress, and enhance physical appearance.

What to Expect with IV Therapy

All IV therapy treatments begin with an individual consultation with a functional medicine clinician. In this consultation, potential patients can discuss their concerns, goals and desires for IV nutritional therapy. Each patient will meet with our wellness doctor to review general health questions and determine the best course of treatment. All patients undergo a baseline blood test to ensure tolerance for all vitamins and minerals, as well as to establish a thorough understanding of physiologic needs.

Some patients may want further testing to include food tolerance screening and nutritional analysis. This screening can reveal potential toxin exposure and give a more comprehensive overview of a patient’s state of health. Treatment typically includes a weekly regimen to ensure that the body is getting adequate vitamins and minerals to support activity, wellness, and health.

At Boca Plastic Surgery & Age Management, we utilize a comfortable butterfly needle with a micro-catheter to administer the nutritional therapy. Some individuals report feeling a warmth and flushing sensation as the IV is given. During your IV Nutritional Therapy session, soothing music, computer access, massage chair and current reading materials are all available.

IV nutritional therapy is a minimally invasive treatment that is well tolerated by most people. It has a low risk of serious side effects, which may include discomfort at the injection site or a slight after-taste of supplements after the infusion. Urine may have a strong color or odor due to the supplements.

Getting Started with IV Therapy

Before any IV therapy treatment begins, every patient will have a baseline blood test to ensure tolerances to all vitamins and minerals and meet with our wellness doctor to go over general health questions to determine the best course of IV treatment.

For patients wanting to fully integrate IV therapy into their personal wellness plan, adding a comprehensive blood panel and food tolerance testing will provide a complete nutritional analysis and reveal any exposure to toxins for a more detailed analysis of each patient’s current state of health. A weekly regimen is an excellent way to assure your body is getting all the vitamins and minerals it needs to support your healthy lifestyle.
