IV THERAPY
IV Therapy is nothing new to the medical industry and I am sure you are beginning to see IV spas pop up all over the place advertising the best “Hangover Cure” or Weight Loss Infusions…but a few questions: What’s really in that bag? Do they even know what your medical history is or even what nutrient deficiencies you may have? IV Therapy clinics objective will not have the same thorough, medical approach you’d see at LVWellness & Aesthetics.
Here at LVWellness & Aesthetics, we like to understand your entire medical history and undergo specific lab testing prior to undergoing any IV infusion therapy. By determining your history and evaluating your underlying nutrient deficiencies, we can customize exactly what you require and what treatment would most benefit you. Without this approach, you are just taking a shot in the dark and hoping it sticks!
IV Therapy vs Oral Supplementation
For some people, barriers exist in the gastrointestinal tract can inhibit adequate absorption. With IV Therapy, we can safely deliver large doses of nutrients safely into a vein that would otherwise not be tolerated if administered orally. Vitamins, minerals, amino acids and certain other nutrients can have an incredible health benefit, but without the side effects of many prescription medications!
What IV Therapy options are available at LVWellness & Aesthetics?
Myers Cocktail
The Myer’s Cocktail we use today, was inspired by the late John Myers, M.D., a physician at Johns Hopkins University who created the famous “Myers’ Cocktail” in the 1970’s. Our Myer’s Cocktail consists of Calcium Vitamin B1, B5, B6, B12, Vitamin C, and Folic Acid.
