I.V. Therapy is a method of administering vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, and amino acids directly into the bloodstream through intravenous infusion. It provides valuable nutrients to the body, bypassing the digestive system, and has been clinically proven to be more effective than oral supplements.
All vitamins and nutrients used at Energi Wellness are FDA approved and go through high levels of testing. Every IV therapy treatment is administered by registered nurses and performed under a medical director. Before a client receives IV therapy, vitals signs are recorded and health history is evaluated. After the treatment ends, clients can resume most activities and daily responsibilities immediately with the exception of heavy lifting.
While there are benefits from oral supplementation, it is not nearly as effective as injectable supplementation, and several nutrients simply cannot be absorbed orally. As the pills pass through the digestive system, they are broken down and have a lower absorption rate. By the time your body has processed the supplements, you may have only absorbed half of the dose. With IV supplementation, your body has the ability to absorb the nutrients directly from the bloodstream, bypassing the gastrointestinal system.
Very effective. In fact, injectable nutritional supplementation is the MOST effective way to supplement your vital nutrients. Your cells are able to pick up these nutrients immediately from the bloodstream instead of after passing through your digestive system, where a lot of the nutrients are wasted and passed without absorption.
The most common side effects are light bruising and pain at the injection site. Other common side effects are dizziness, lightheadedness, shortness of breath, and nausea. These side effects are common, and your therapy can be slowed or stopped as your body acclimates to the vitamins. Our staffing area is very sterile and all of our therapies are mixed inside of a sterile laminar flow hood ensuring the cleanest therapies possible. Additional complications, which are extremely rare, include fainting, infiltration, infection, air embolism, and hematoma.

Injections take seconds, first time customers can be in and out the door in minutes. Most infusions last around 45-50 minutes and can drip as quick as 30 minutes or as slow as an hour and a half depending on condition. Booking appointments ahead of time help cut down the time.
Depending on your symptoms and ailments, you may feel relief instantly. For instance, in cases of dehydration, exhaustion, and nausea, the fluids and nutrients received via IVs, including pushes such as Zofran for anti-nausea, you may feel better instantly. In most cases, the effects are felt within hours, and especially the next day. Some are felt gradually as energy increases, inflammation decreases, and endurance improves. Some effects may not be felt, but may be seen over time as skin appearance improves and waist lines slim.
It depends on your symptoms, your conditions and your goals. IV therapy is safe to do weekly and we encourage clients to base their frequency on their needs, goals, and how they are feeling. Some IV therapy programs will require specific frequencies. Contact us and a registered nurse can make a specific protocol for you.
By booking ahead of time, we know you are coming and can have your therapy prepared and ready when you arrive. We do not accept walk ins at time but you can call an hour ahead to check availability.
Unfortunately, most health insurance providers do not cover vitamin and mineral supplementation, and we do not accept any insurance. We do accept FSA, HSA, and other health savings plans. In the rare case that your card gets declined, you may pay with another and we will supply an itemized invoice so you can submit a claim to your coverage provider.
The Energi staff are made up of highly trained physicians, nurse practitioners and ER registered nurses to administer our services. Our professionals take the utmost care to ensure that your service exceeds expectations and is safe as possible.
