How does IV therapy support wellness?

Hospitals have long used IVs to restore vital nutrients and replenish lost fluids rapidly. Today, IV therapy offers the same benefits to everyday people without a trip to the hospital.

IV therapy helps replenish much-needed nutrients, vitamins, and minerals while restoring an optimal hydration level.

Elite Skin Center offers IV therapy to promote overall wellness, help you feel better if you’re suffering from a chronic condition, and rejuvenate a dry, tired-looking complexion. In addition to IV therapy, Elite Skin Center provides wellness shots.

Why would I need IV therapy or wellness shots?

Several factors can take a toll on your health and well-being, including:

• Stress
• Lack of sleep
• Poor nutrition
• Physical exhaustion
• Chronic health problems

IV therapy and wellness shots help relieve the symptoms of these symptoms and more.

Are IV therapy and wellness shots better than taking vitamins?

IV nutritional infusions and wellness shots provide an essential boost of vital vitamins and minerals through injections made directly into your vein. The injections deliver critical nutrients and vitamins directly into your bloodstream by bypassing your digestive tract.

Compared to the nutrients you receive in food or by taking supplements, IV infusions and wellness shots may introduce higher levels of vitamins and minerals into your body. This is because many factors influence your body’s ability to absorb nutrients in your stomach. These factors include:

• Age
• Metabolism
• Health status
• Genetics
• Interactions with other products that you eat or drink

Injecting nutrients, vitamins, and minerals into your bloodstream may ultimately increase their uptake in your cells — where you need them the most.

What is used in IV therapy?

IV therapy typically provides a high concentration of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. Common ingredients include:

• Vitamin C
• B vitamins
• Magnesium
• Antioxidants
• Calcium
• Amino acids (the building blocks of protein) 

Elite Skin Center tailors the IV therapy to your needs based on the nutrients you may lack. They may also recommend wellness shots to supplement the vital nutrients your body needs more.

Do wellness shots and IV therapy hurt?

Your nutritional therapy is delivered via an IV or injection, so you feel a slight prick when the needle is inserted into your vein. IV insertion is rapid. During your therapy, you relax comfortably as the nutrients, and other ingredients are infused into your bloodstream.

If you lack the nutrients and vitamins needed for optimal health, perhaps it’s time to explore the advantages of wellness services available. Call the Elite Skin Center to schedule your consultation or request an appointment online today.
