How It Works
Typically, we get our vitamins and nutrients from our diets. But sometimes, we either can’t take the time to ensure our diets are properly balanced, or our digestive tracts do not fully absorb the nutrients we eat. While there are many reasons for this, there is one easy solution.
IV therapy works by delivering the vitamins you need directly into your bloodstream. By bypassing the digestive system, we can guarantee your body absorbs 100% of the vitamin solutions, ensuring you have what you need to feel energized and ready to tackle whatever the day may have for you.

The IV Therapy Process
Step 1: Consultation
Before undergoing IV therapy, you will meet with one of our providers for a consultation. You will talk about which treatments would best accomplish your wellness goals based on your medical history and your unique symptoms. Once you have decided that IV therapy is right for you, then your provider will help you schedule your appointment.
Step 2: Treatment
For your IV therapy appointment, your provider will begin by cleaning the area where the IV will be inserted, and then they will insert the IV into the crook of your arm. You will only feel mild discomfort when the IV is inserted, but should otherwise be able to sit back and relax while your body receives the nutrients it needs.
Step 3: Recovery
After receiving IV therapy in Cleveland, you will be able to return to your normal daily activities. You will feel improvements immediately but will feel the effects for about a week. Once the effects have worn off, we encourage you to schedule an additional appointment so you can continue to enjoy having optimized vitamin levels.
Pre-Care & Post-Care Instructions
- Drink plenty of water to help increase the efficacy of your IV therapy.
- Make sure to eat a light meal within 5 hours of your appointment to ensure you do not faint during your IV insertion.
- Protect your skin with sunscreen the week before your appointment to ensure your skin is not too sensitive.
- Refrain from excessive or strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
- Continue drinking plenty of water to help the IV solution spread through your body faster.
- If you experience swelling at the injection site, apply a cold compress for 10 to 15 minutes at a time.
