How Often Should You Get IV Therapy?

Oct 05, 2021

IV therapy is one of the most exciting wellness treatments that’ll replenish your body with hydration and nutrients, increase energy levels, slow the signs of aging, improve muscle recovery, and boost stamina. The nutrients and isotonic solutions are all-natural and administered by experienced Registered Nurses in a safe environment and the benefits are high. With those things in mind, many people want to know how often they should receive IV therapy. Regularly? Once in a while? Let’s discuss.

What is IV therapy?

Before we delve into an optimal frequency of administration, let’s take a quick look at IV therapy and revisit exactly what it is. In short, intravenous (IV) therapy is receiving a hydrating solution via an IV catheter. It’s done, or should be done, by trained nurses who follow best practices. Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients are often added to a saline or electrolyte filled solution to create a variety of nutritional IV drips that can revitalize, nourish, hydrate, and more.

 

The process takes anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and is both fast-acting and effective. Because the nutrients are delivered straight into your bloodstream, they’re able to travel right to your organs to be absorbed. And absorbed they are. Nutrients delivered via IV are 90%+ bioavailable, meaning your body can use and benefit from them. Compare that to the 20% bioavailability, at best, from orally consumed vitamins and it’s easy to see why IV therapy is so popular.

Why do people get iv therapy?

People receive IV therapy for many reasons, and the nature of those reasons also plays into how often a person gets IV therapy. One of the most common reasons cited for IV therapy is to support basic and healthy well-being. As they say, you are what you eat. And if you’re not routinely consuming all the nutrients you need, you cannot be healthy. In fact, when inadequate nutrition and dehydration is a regular thing, it will quickly affect your health and lead to ailments and even chronic conditions.

Unfortunately, the stats show that nine out of ten people simply don’t get enough fresh fruits and vegetables every day to provide their bodies with the continuous supply of nutrients they need. Even worse, many people fall short of the minimum recommendation of eight glasses of water every day. That’s why even though IV therapy is advertised as a “bonus” treatment to relieve acute conditions like a hangover or the symptoms of temporary illness, what it provides is far more necessity than a luxury.

how often should you get iv therapy?

IV therapy has many benefits, but how often should you get it? Is there an upper limit? Well, like everything, the answer is that it depends on your needs, goals, and reasons for receiving IV therapy. As already mentioned, many people opt to receive IV therapy to fill the gaps in their body’s nutritional needs or provide specialized nutrients or combinations of nutrients that are more difficult to receive through food.

In those situations where IV therapy is utilized to promote your overall wellness, one infusion every two weeks is both ideal and adequate for most people since nutrient levels are elevated for a couple of weeks following an infusion. People who have a health condition or who are under the care of a physician may benefit from specialized nutrient IV drips on a weekly basis. In which case, this healthcare professional will provide instruction and substantiation for increased IV therapy frequency.

And if you need or want IV therapy because you want to elevate your health and overall feelings of wellness, a once-in-a-while appointment for self-care is okay, too! While there is much to be gained by receiving regular IV therapy to ensure that you’re always nourished and hydrated, many people also make it part of their semi-regular self-care routine and use it whenever they want a boost.
