Intravenous (IV) therapy is a medical technique that involves delivering fluids, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a vein. It is used to improve hydration and provide essential nutrients to the body.
IV therapy can offer a wide range of benefits, including increased energy levels, improved hydration, faster recovery from illness or hangovers, enhanced immunity, and relief from various health conditions.

While side effects are rare, they may include minor discomfort at the injection site, bruising, or an allergic reaction to certain ingredients. It's essential to discuss your medical history and any concerns with your healthcare provider before starting IV therapy.
IV therapy is suitable for a wide range of individuals, including those seeking increased energy, improved immune function, hydration, relief from hangovers, and support for specific health conditions.
