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.
