Beautiful Skin & Hair With IV Therapy
Make sure you have the necessary nutrients to build strong, healthy skin and hair. It is important to understand the connection between your nutritional status and the health of your skin and hair.
Get the ultimate boost with our IV infusion with the perfect blend of hydration, glutathione that brightens and lightens the skin, biotin, all the B vitamins, amino acids, and a high dose of vitamin C.
Your skin is your largest organ and provides visual clues to your overall health. No serum or cream can substitute for the essential vitamins and minerals your cells need. The healthier your cells are, the healthier you look.
High vitamin C levels are required to help with collagen formation. Optimal levels of vitamin C can only be achieved with IV drip administration, not oral intake. It’s your time to glow.
The acronym “IV” stands for intravenous therapy, “intra-” meaning within or inside, and “venous” relating to the veins. IV therapy, then, is a method of administering fluids to the body by way of the blood vessels. So, when we talk about the benefits of IV therapy, we’re referring to both the IV method itself and the ingredients found within your chosen drip.
With traditional oral supplements, nutrients must first enter your digestive system and be processed for absorption before entering the bloodstream. IV therapy cuts digestion out of the equation. Supplements delivered intravenously are immediately available for your body. There is no breakdown of nutrients, and there’s no wait time. Your body will absorb everything it needs, and anything it doesn’t is filtered out and expelled.
IV therapy is best known for its ability to hydrate your body and make you feel your best. It can also improve certain conditions that affect the digestive tract, including Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, colon cancer, and cystic fibrosis. Since those ailments may inhibit the absorption of certain vitamins and minerals, IV therapy can help deliver those same nutrients without upsetting the digestive tract.

Depending on the ingredients of your drip bag, IV therapy can have a profound effect on your cardiovascular health. Certain amino acids like arginine ornithine help relax your blood vessels, which in turn may lower your blood pressure. Minerals, such as magnesium and calcium, can also help regulate the contracting and dilating of your blood vessels.
If you’re interested in the cardiovascular benefits of IV therapy, we recommend the following supplements:
Calcium
Arginine
Magnesium sulfate
Tri Amino
Skip the sugary sodas and sketchy energy drinks and instead opt for a more natural solution: vitamins! The secret lies in the energy-producing properties of B vitamins and amino acids, the building blocks of protein in the body.
Both B vitamins and amino acids are considered essential nutrients your body needs to survive. An influx of those via an IV infusion can help boost your body’s natural energy levels and could help you curb your cravings for unhealthy foods and beverages.
If you’re looking for a quick boost of energy, ask the registered nurse administering your IV about the following:
Alpha-lipoic acid
B-Complex (all eight essential B vitamins)
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B9
Free radicals are naturally occurring molecules that can cause oxidative stress which is thought to contribute to a whole host of diseases, ranging from depression to heart disease and cancer. Antioxidants like vitamin C are substances that protect your body from those free radicals. Moreover, certain antioxidants like vitamin C—and even some minerals like zinc—help protect the body against infection by strengthening the immune system
Enhance your drip and give your immunity a boost:
Vitamin C
Zinc
Weight loss can seem difficult at times, no matter how much you exercise or eat your greens. IV supplements can help boost your weight loss journey by converting fat into pure fuel on a cellular level.
While every IV clinic has its own formulas, Bounce Hydration uses carnitine and alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) to burn fat into energy you can use. Both carnitine, an amino acid, and ALA, a known antioxidant, works with your mitochondria to boost your metabolism and break down fat.
As a known diuretic, alcohol causes your body to lose water and dehydrate you. While you may think it’s hydrating because you’re drinking a liquid and there’s ice in the cup, alcohol actually does the opposite. That dehydration is one of the main contributing factors to your hangover symptoms.
An IV infusion replenishes that lost water and “cures” your hangover in mere minutes. It also contains electrolytes, most commonly in the form of sodium chloride, which helps to relieve symptoms of dehydration, including fatigue, dizziness, and thirst. Some drip spas even add anti-nausea and anti-inflammatories to help counteract the additional side effects of drinking.
IV therapy may also accelerate the wound healing process. Depending on the specific nutrient-rich cocktail you choose, vitamin infusions can help heal wounds and repair damaged cells. It can also improve the health of your skin—your body’s first line of defense against disease and infection.
Here’s what we recommend for your drip:
Vitamin C
Zinc
Arginine
Glutathione
Known as the ruler of all antioxidants, glutathione is a workhorse nutrient that benefits your body in a whole host of ways—chief among them being its anti-aging effects.
Repair damaged cells
Detox the liver
Boost your immune system
Help manage autoimmune disease symptoms
Assist in the metabolism (breaking down) of toxins
Protect you against free radicals
Intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy is a safe and effective method for delivering vitamins and minerals directly to your bloodstream. This method bypasses the digestive tract which allows for 100% absorption of all nutrients, making them immediately available for cellular use.
After consenting to treatment and taking a brief medical history, you can select an IV from our menu. Intramuscular wellness injections are also available. Your arm will be prepped in a sterile fashion, and an IV will be placed and secured. A normal IV bag takes about 30-60 minutes to complete. Once completed we will remove the catheter tube, cover the IV site, and hand you some paperwork. It is that simple!
There are many benefits, which include but are not limited to:
Most efficient method of delivering vital nutrients to the body
Bypasses the digestive tract for 100% absorption
Nutrients are immediately available for cellular use
Safely delivers higher doses of vitamins that would not be tolerated if taken orally
Boosts immune system to help prevent or treat illness
Increases energy
Slows the effects of aging
Yes, we only use reputable and accredited compounding pharmacies for our ingredients. These infusions are administered by a Board Certified Nurse Anestetist.
Side effects rarely happen if at all. If they do, they are usually minor and short lived. Bruising or bleeding at IV site, warming or cooling sensation in arm, chest or stomach, tasting the vitamins or having vitamin smell in your urine. As a Board Certified Nurse Anesthetist I am highly trained to manage any side effects that may occur.
Once the IV is in place only a very small, flexible straw will be left in the vein ensuring a comfortable session.
Most of our IV drips take anywhere between 15-90 minutes. During this time you can relax, recline, read, listen to music on your headphones, and just take time for yourself.
Once the treatment has started you can recline in one of our comfortable chairs or loungers and enjoy the benefits of vitamin therapy. You may experience a warming sensation in your arm, chest or abdomen when the IV is infusing as well as the sensation of tasting some of the vitamins and nutrients that are in the treatment.
This depends on each individual’s needs and treatments preferred. For best results, we recommend weekly or bi-monthly infusions with many of the treatments for example skin care and anti-aging. Some of the treatments are a quick fix and are only needed when the ailment is active, i.e.: migraine, hangover.
Yes, vitamins and nutrients taken orally are only partially absorbed. Getting vitamins through the IV process is a direct route to the bloodstream and your cells for maximum absorption. We recommend continuing your daily vitamin regimen.
IV hydration goes straight to your bloodstream bypassing the GI tract and absorbing 100% of the nutrients. Typically you will feel the effects within an hour of treatment. Some of our drip cocktails are designed for long term benefits and may not give you the immediate boost you are looking for.
There are a few medications that can interact with IV therapy. I will conduct a thorough client history to ensure the drip of your choice is not only safe for you but effective, and not interacting with your current medication regimen.
