Optimal Vitamin, Nutrient & Antioxidant Absorption
By bypassing the digestive system, IV therapy allows for higher doses of nutrients and eliminates the loss of vitamins and nutrients that occurs through oral supplementation. This is especially beneficial for individuals with compromised intestinal absorption or those seeking a more efficient method of nutrient delivery. Direct delivery of vitamins and nutrients to the tissues that need them also eliminates risk of intestinal upset and irritation.
Although we do offer the renowned Myer’s cocktail, our extensive menu of IV Vitamin & Nutrient options, as well as add-ons to enhance your experience, ensures that one size does not fit all, and every treatment is tailored to meet your individual needs.
The Myer’s Cocktail is a specific blend of nutrients originally developed by
Maryland physician Dr. John Myers. It is a powerful infusion of nutrients,
designed to address a wide range of health problems.
