5 Benefits of IV Therapy That Might Surprise You

Intravenous (IV) lines are a vital tool used worldwide due to their ability to quickly and efficiently deliver fluids, nutrients, and medications, which is necessary and incredibly beneficial in an emergency.  

However, did you know IV therapy can be used for more than just medical emergencies? IV therapy has skyrocketed in popularity due to its wide variety of uses and health and wellness benefits. 

At Atlas Health Institute in Las Vegas, Nevada, Dana Trippi, DO, leads our team in offering IV therapy for optimal well-being. In this month’s blog, we review what you need to know about IV therapy infusions, including the numerous benefits they can offer you. 

Understanding IV therapy 

IV therapy works by rapidly administering a high dose of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants — along with hydrating fluids and electrolytes — directly into your bloodstream. This method is often preferable since it bypasses your digestive tract, allowing your body to receive more nutrients faster. 

When used for general health and wellness, our team customizes IV therapy to fit your unique needs and concerns. At Atlas Health Institute, we can use IV therapy to address chronic fatigue, anemia, a weakened immune system, jet lag, hangovers, and workout recovery. 

What to expect from an IV therapy session

When you come in for an IV therapy session, you can sit back and relax in one of our comfortable chairs while we get the IV line ready. Once you’re hooked up and ready to go, you can let the fluids and nutrients go to work while you scroll on your phone, listen to music, or read a book for about 30-45 minutes. 

If you need IV therapy for hangover or workout recovery, you can come in on an as-needed basis. But if you deal with ongoing health issues such as chronic fatigue, vitamin deficiencies, or dehydration, you may need to come in on a more regular basis. 

What health benefits does IV therapy offer?

No matter the reason you’re seeking IV therapy, these are just some of the ways you can expect IV therapy to benefit you:

1. Provides increased energy levels
2. Flushes out toxins
3. Restores electrolyte balances
4. Boosts immune system function
5. Addresses vitamin deficiencies 

In addition, because IV therapy goes to work immediately, you should leave each session feeling invigorated and refreshed, with no need for any procedure recovery.
