The above list only mentions a few of the medical uses for intravenous therapies.  Some people also benefit from these therapies before or after surgery, while receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy, as well as a means of preventive therapy.  If you feel you are a candidate for intravenous therapy, please call to set up an initial appointment.

The goals of intravenous therapy are:

  • To deliver the nutrients directly into the bloodstream

  • To deliver the nutrients to the tissues in optimal proportions for maximum effects

  • To reduce the need for and dosage of all drugs in various stages of patient care

  • To protect tissues from injury caused by chemotherapy, radiotherapy, anesthesia, surgery, and other forms of trauma

  • To provide an extra boost to the metabolism at the onset of an illness

Please note:  None of these IV therapies are covered under any insurance plans and can range in price.
