IV therapy is the intravenous delivery of specific nutrients and compounds that are naturally found in the body but get depleted by age, illness, stress or injury.
IV therapy is an effective and fast way to help restore and replenish nutrient deficiencies that can occur with absorption problems, aging and illnesses.
By flooding the cells with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and molecules, you’re replenishing your body with vital nutrients.
And since diseases and aging often originate in the cells, restoring optimal levels of these nutrients can have a great impact on your health.
IV therapy delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the gut for 100% absorption.
IV therapy allows for fast delivery of nutrients. Most treatments are done in less than 1 hour.
Higher, therapeutic dosages of vital nutrients are achieved through an IV.
Since IV therapy delivers important nutrients at higher doses, greater results are possible.
Higher doses of therapeutic nutrients are delivered directly into the bloodstream, avoiding the gastrointestinal (GI) system. This is especially advantageous for anyone with GI issues like “leaky gut”, poor digestion, or compromised absorption. Bypassing the digestive tract and going straight to the bloodstream means nothing gets lost along the way. Your blood, cells and tissues are getting the full effects of the nutrients, where they are needed most.
We offer several IV options to address and support different health concerns. From general wellness, detoxification, immune system support and for improving energy levels – most everyone can benefit from IV therapy.
PC IV helps to restore the appropriate balance of lipids in cell membranes to maintain healthy brain function, liver function, healthy cholesterol levels already within the normal range, and gastric mucosal protection.
PC is also widely used to support healthy aging.
Consider this therapy a “deep cleaning” for the brain cells and mitochondria.
BENEFITS:
PRICE: $500
NAD+ IV is the active cofactor form of vitamin B3 – a carrier molecule used by every cell in the body for energy metabolism. NAD+ is essential for cell viability and function.
NAD+ levels decline as we age. When NAD+ is depleted it causes “mitochondrial dysfunction” a condition that is linked to aging, as well as virtually all chronic diseases’. NAD+ is natural, restorative and protective.
BENEFITS:
The Myers Cocktail IV combines a blend of powerful antioxidants and micronutrients that help support the immune system, boost energy, and for general wellness.
Over the past several years, the Myers Cocktail has become widely known for its immune boosting properties – as both a preventative and therapeutic treatment.
200mg of glutathione is included for additional antioxidant and immune support.
BENEFITS:
PRICE: $275
PC Push is required before the full dose of PC IV to see how your body responds. Phosphatidylcholine and glutathione support detoxification, cellular repair and brain function.
PC helps to restore the appropriate balance of lipids in cell membranes.
Consider this therapy a “deep cleaning” for the brain cells and mitochondria.
PRICE: $400
The NAD+ PC Combo gives you the benefits of both IVs in one visit. PC is given first, to clean or “prime” the cells and to prepare them for maximum absorption of the NAD+. Better absorption allows for the most potential benefits. The PC and NAD+ IV COMBO is more efficient and less expensive than doing each service separately.
PRICE: $850
Microneedling with Exosomes and platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an innovative skin treatment that combines the power of your own plasma (PRP) and stem cell derivatives (exosomes) with microneedling for an overall more youthful, radiant complexion.
Vitamin Injections are a quick and efficient way to boost levels of important essential nutrients and to help avoid deficiencies that can lead to various illnesses or diseases.
PRICE: $25 each
Glutathione is your body’s master antioxidant and detoxifier. It helps the body to detox from toxins we are exposed to daily, and protects the body’s tissues, including the arteries, brain, heart, liver, lungs, and skin.
IV PRICE: $175 (1000 mg)
PUSH: $50
The QI Laser guided VCELS procedure uses rare early-development cells known as very small embryonic-like cells (VSELs), derived from the person being treated.

IV therapy delivers vital nutrients directly into the bloodstream. Bypassing the digestive system allows for 100% absorption, maximum effectiveness and minimal waste.
It is always best to come well hydrated. You may eat and drink prior to your infusion.
You may have some bruising at the injection site, or feel a “cold” sensation with any of the infusions, however this is normal.
After PC therapy some have experienced loose stools.
During NAD treatment you may feel nauseous, have a headache or feel flushed, however that can subside as we slow down the delivery of the infusion, and will dissipate when your treatment is over.
