IV Nutritional Therapy
Intravenous therapy, or IV therapy, is the delivery of vitamins, minerals, and any of a wide
variety of other natural substances directly into the bloodstream to treat many conditions from
the common cold to chronic pain and fatigue, infections, heavy metal toxicities and
autoimmune disease.
The benefits of IV therapy:
- IV therapy gives patients a higher concentration of healing substances in the blood than
one could achieve by taking the same substances orally or through intramuscular
injection.
- IV therapy causes fewer side effects than do many conventional drugs used to treat the
same conditions.
- Many vitamins and minerals taken orally are not well absorbed in the digestive tract.
That is not an issue with IV therapy, which bypasses the digestive system to deliver
vitamins and minerals directly to the bloodstream.
- In addition to removing damaging heavy metals like lead and mercury from the body,
chelation therapy is also effective at removing toxins and waste products.
IV therapy is a safe and effective way to feel better fast without the use of drugs. If you are
interested in receiving IV therapy, you can schedule an appointment in our comfortable IV
therapy room.
The Most Common I.V. “Cocktail” = Myers
A Myers’ “Wellness” Cocktail is a nutritional “cocktail” given intravenously (IV), or through a
vein. It consists of magnesium, calcium, various B vitamins, and vitamin C. The Myers’ Cocktail
has been used to treat general fatigue, chronic fatigue syndrome/fibromyalgia, relieve acute
asthma attacks, upper respiratory tract infections, chronic sinus infections, seasonal allergies,
migraine headaches, muscle spasms, menstrual cramps, as well as to support recovery from
endurance athletics. Many relatively healthy patients choose to receive periodic Myers’ Cocktail
injections because it enhances their overall well-being for variable periods of time.
This cocktail is named after John Myers, a physician from Baltimore, Maryland. He treated
patients with IV nutrient therapy for over 25 years. Since then, thousands of patients
nationwide have received this cocktail with great benefits.
