Why IV

Why people use IV therapy

IV nutrition isn't a cure-all. Here's where it genuinely helps.

Bypass the gut

Nutrients go straight into the bloodstream, so absorption isn't limited by digestion — useful when gut issues, malabsorption, or IBD are in the picture.

Higher doses, safely

IV delivery makes therapeutic doses possible that oral supplements simply can't reach, under clinical supervision.

Fast rehydration

Fluids and electrolytes restore hydration quickly after illness, travel, heat, or hard training.

Targeted to your labs

Iron, B12, and other deficiencies are corrected based on your actual numbers, not a guess.

Support during recovery

Cold and flu, post-viral fatigue, surgery recovery, and high physical demand all benefit from focused nutrient support.

Part of a bigger plan

IVs work best alongside root-cause care — testing, nutrition, and a plan that continues after you leave the chair.

The experience

What a visit looks like

  1. 01

    Clinical review

    We review your history, your goals, and any recent labs. Dr. Lechner orders the drip that fits — or tells you if IV isn't the right tool.

  2. 02

    Settle in

    You'll relax in a quiet, comfortable chair. Placement takes a moment; most people feel a small pinch and nothing after.

  3. 03

    Infusion

    Most sessions run 30–60 minutes. NAD+ takes about two hours. Our clinical team stays with you throughout.

  4. 04

    What's next

    We'll talk through cadence — whether this is a one-time reset or part of a short series inside a larger plan.

The difference

Not a drip bar

Physician-led

Dr. Alison Lechner, DO, IFMCP reviews and orders every infusion. No wall of pre-mixed bags.

Root-cause context

We use advanced lab testing to understand why you're depleted — not just to top you off.

Honest guidance

If an IV isn't the right answer for you, we'll say so and point you toward what is.
