At an increasing rate, IV therapy is being used to address health and wellness needs. Is it the right solution for you? The purpose of this article is to explain what IV therapy is and whether it is the right solution for you.

What Is IV Therapy?

IV therapy is the act of delivering substances to the body directly through the bloodstream. If you’ve been to the hospital or even if you’ve seen a medical drama, you are likely familiar with what this looks like. It includes tubing to the arm and typically a bag of fluid that contains medicines and/or fluids that need to be delivered to the body. IV therapy, however, is regular, intentional delivery in this manner rather than a one-time trip to the hospital.

What Are the Benefits?

IV therapy can be used for many reasons. Among those are for improved energy and vitality. Some people who do IV therapy use it to instantly absorb a mixture of vitamins, including B-complex vitamins, that have energy-boosting impacts. Another function of IV therapy is helping in weight loss. There are mixtures of lipotropic compounds that can be applied to help speed metabolism and break down fat. Less direct than that is the energy that vitamins provide, allowing users to have the strength and energy needed to exercise and be active.

Is It Customizable?

An advantage of IV therapy is that the patient can work with a health provider to create a tailored mixture of vitamins and nutrients to aid with goals. Whether it’s for weight loss, energy boosts, migraine prevention, or something else, the approach is customizable. It may take a while to get the combination right, but for many, this has proven to successfully address multiple needs.

What Are the Risks?

Before considering IV therapy, it’s important to know that there are risks. More extreme types of complications after IV therapy usually occur after three or more days of having an IV insertion, according to Medical News Today. A patient should consult with a healthcare provider to understand the risks and their frequency.

If you’re considering IV therapy for weight loss, energy boosts, other purposes, or all of the above, this could be a viable solution for you. Be sure to do proper research and ask your doctor whether it’s a good idea for your condition. Keep your goals in mind, and recognize that IV therapy is meant to supplement the foundational ways you take care of your health.
