Introduction
Intravenous therapy, commonly known as IV therapy, is a revolutionary method of delivering essential nutrients and medications directly into the bloodstream. But how does it work, and why is it becoming increasingly popular in the health and wellness sector? Let's dive in.
"The advantage of IV therapy over oral therapy is the ability to infuse larger doses of nutrients that would not be tolerated orally, for a rapid delivery directly to cells." — Dr. Alan R. Gaby, M.D., author of "Nutritional Medicine."
Understanding IV Therapy
At its core, IV therapy involves administering a specially formulated solution directly into the bloodstream through a catheter. This method ensures rapid delivery of the solution throughout the body, making it the quickest way to nourish and heal.
The IV Therapy Process
Preparation: A trained nurse sanitizes the area of insertion.
Insertion: A thin needle inside a catheter pierces the skin, entering the vein. This is usually painless, with just a slight pinch felt.
Administration: The IV line connects to a bag containing the chosen solution, which relies on gravity to infuse the fluid into the bloodstream. At Radhiant Wellness, our IV treatments typically last around 45 minutes.
What's Inside an IV?
Saline Solution: A blend of sodium chloride and water, this hydrates the body and serves as the delivery medium for vitamins and medications.
Vitamins & Antioxidants: Essential for body functionality, these are often included to ensure the body receives all necessary nutrients.
Why Choose IV Therapy?
Whether you're combating dehydration, hangovers, or jet lag, IV therapy can provide the boost you need. By delivering nutrients directly to the bloodstream, it bypasses the digestive system, ensuring maximum absorption and effectiveness.
