IV Therapy

You may have heard of a Myer’s cocktail, or know someone who has. A Myer’s cocktail is a nutritional IV, comprised of a variety of nutrients, usually vitamin C, B vitamins, magnesium, calcium, zinc, selenium and other trace minerals. These treatments have been used for decades for a number of specific purposes.

Most commonly we use this treatment to combat a cold or flu – this is one of the fastest and most effective ways to combat an illness. Perfect for people who need to feel better, fast!

A typical IV treatment is very comfortable – the nutrition is infused through a very small needle, over the course of about an hour. You can take a nap, or read a magazine/book while you wait in a quiet and relaxing room.

This therapy can also be tailored to help patients with Crohn’s Disease, or Ulcerative Colitis – conditions in which the intestines can’t absorb much nutrition from food. We can use this treatment to help the patient feel better with more energy, while we repair the GI tract.
