How it works:
- A licensed provider reviews your health history via telehealth

This process ensures IV therapy is provided safely and in compliance with healthcare standards – without requiring an external prescription.

Risks are uncommon but may include mild bruising, temporary soreness, or lightheadedness. Medical staff are trained to manage these situations if they occur.
Eligibility & Medical Requirements
Do I need a telehealth appointment?
Yes, a required telehealth evaluation is included with every IV therapy service to ensure your treatment is safe and appropriate for your health needs. This mandatory assessment allows our medical team to review your history and customize your care without any additional cost to you.
How it works:

How it works:
- You must inform your provider if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding
- We review your history and may coordinate care with your OB provider for specific needs like severe dehydration or iron deficiency

The safety of both mother and baby is the priority, and all care is delivered under proper medical supervision.

Our goal is to provide a seamless and stress-free treatment experience regardless of your vein structure, all while maintaining professional medical standards.
Payment & Coverage
Can I pay with my HSA or FSA?
Yes, we accept Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) payments for all IV therapy services. Many clients use these tax-advantaged funds to cover their treatments, making wellness more accessible.
How it works:
- Use your HSA or FSA debit card just like a standard credit card at the time of payment
- Most IV vitamin treatments are considered eligible medical expenses, but we recommend verifying with your specific plan provider
- We recommend verifying with your specific plan provider for any unique restrictions or requirements
Results & Benefits
How long do the vitamins and benefits last?
Most clients report feeling refreshed shortly after their infusion, often within the same day or within 24 hours. The duration of benefits varies by individual and commonly lasts several days, with some clients noticing effects for up to a week.
How it works:
- IV therapy delivers fluids and nutrients directly into the bloodstream for immediate absorption
- Many clients notice improved hydration, energy, or overall wellness shortly after treatment
- Duration of effects depends on hydration level, nutrient status, stress, activity level, sleep, and individual metabolism
- Results vary from person to person and are not guaranteed
This process allows for efficient nutrient delivery while supporting overall wellness under proper medical oversight.
How often can I receive IV therapy?
The frequency of your IV therapy sessions depends on your individual needs and the specific treatment received. Your medical provider will guide you on the most appropriate schedule to ensure you achieve optimal results safely.
How it works:
- A medical provider evaluates your health history to recommend a safe frequency for your needs
- Sessions can be scheduled weekly, bi-weekly, or as a one-time boost after travel or illness
- Frequency is adjusted based on how your body responds to the nutrients and hydration
- All recommendations prioritize long-term wellness and professional medical oversight
This personalized approach ensures you receive the maximum benefit from your infusions while maintaining the highest safety standards for your body.
Treatment Experience & Process
How long does an IV infusion take?
Most IV infusions take approximately 45 to 60 minutes. The exact duration depends on the formulation selected and individual factors during treatment.
How it works:
- A medical professional administers the IV infusion in a comfortable setting
- The infusion rate is monitored and adjusted as needed for safety and comfort
- Some formulations may take slightly longer depending on volume and ingredients
- Treatment time may vary based on individual tolerance and provider discretion
This process ensures IV therapy is delivered safely and efficiently under proper medical supervision.

Safety & Risks
Does getting an IV hurt?
Most clients experience only a brief, minor pinch during the initial needle insertion, followed by a comfortable and relaxing treatment session. Our medical team is highly trained to ensure the process is as painless and smooth as possible for every patient.
How it works:
- A medical professional inserts a small IV catheter into a vein, typically in the arm or hand
- While the initial insertion may cause momentary discomfort, it quickly subsides once the IV is in place
- Fluids and nutrients are then delivered slowly and comfortably while you relax
- The infusion site is monitored throughout treatment to ensure safety and comfort
This process allows IV therapy to be administered safely under proper medical supervision, with minimal discomfort for most clients.
What are the risks?
IV therapy is generally well tolerated, and while potential risks exist as with any needle-based procedure, they are uncommon and typically mild. Our medical protocols are designed to minimize these risks and ensure every client has a safe, positive experience.
Possible risks may include:
- Mild bruising or soreness at the IV site
- Vein irritation or infiltration (fluid outside the vein)
- Rare sensitivity to ingredients
A medical professional monitors you throughout the infusion to adjust or discontinue treatment if any discomfort arises.
