IV Drips
Why we love IV Drips
More nutrients, fast acting and sustained energy. The delivery of fluids, electrolytes, vitamins and nutrients directly into the bloodstream with 100% absorption into the body.
Who is suitable for IV Drips

Frequently Asked Questions

This will depend on each individual’s needs and treatments preferred. For best results, we recommend weekly or bi-monthly infusions with many of the treatments for example skin care and anti-aging. We suggest speaking to the Registered Nurse on site for what would be best for you and your needs.
Most of our IV drips take anywhere between 15-90 minutes. During this time you can relax, recline, read, listen to music on your headphones, and just take time for yourself and enjoy the benefits of vitamin therapy. You may experience a warming sensation in your arm, chest or abdomen when the IV is infusing as well as the sensation of tasting some of the vitamins and nutrients that are in the treatment.
