What Is IV Vitamin Therapy?
Intravenous vitamin (IV) therapy introduces a new paradigm into integrative and functional medicine, allowing us to infuse wellness back into your life, safely and effectively. Clinical studies show that IV therapy helps to improve general health and overall well-being. IV therapy includes; vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other natural organic compounds, administered by intravenous infusion. There is no better or more direct way to acquire the nutrients your body needs than through IV therapy. IV therapy has been shown to be helpful for colds and flu, skin care, athletic performance enhancement, migraine headache, chronic fatigue, post-surgery recovery, fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain, and depression.

What Can IV Therapy Treat?
IV therapy can be used to treat a wide variety of health conditions. Patients come to us at the KHWCT to treat a number of disorders and health challenges ranging from fatigue to intestinal malabsorption, surgical wound healing, athletic performance enhancement, cold and flu, neuropathy and more. Intravenous vitamin (IV) therapy is simple, fast, and causes few or no side effects, making it an ideal treatment option in many situations.
At KHWCT, we understand the importance of a proper and thorough evaluation. As such, and after taking a complete history of your health status, we first run a series of diagnostic tests to assist us in determining the underlying cause of your condition. Once we have developed a working diagnostic picture, we proceed to the therapy itself, which involves infusing vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the body through an intravenous drip. The patient’s condition largely determines the nutrients that are included in the infusion, but some IV therapy components that are commonly used for a variety of conditions include High dose Vitamin C, IV MSM, Myers’ Cocktail, IV Glutathione and IV Magnesium Therapy.
Once treatment has begun, the ongoing formulation of the nutrient complexes used for a patient’s care will be evaluated and, if necessary, continued or changed to suit the patient’s needs throughout the treatment process. Below you will find a list of the conditions most commonly seen in our office, as well as the approach taken to effectively treat each one.
Advantages of IV Therapy
With intravenous nutrient therapy, once the infusion starts, the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that are introduced into your body quickly circulate through the bloodstream and infuse into your cells. Once there, they become immediately available for use.
There are far fewer side effects with intravenous vitamin therapy because the method of introduction bypasses the stomach and intestines. This translates into no upset stomach and no intestinal problems like cramping, nausea, or diarrhea.
IV therapy allows for high-dose therapies to achieve effective outcomes. Research has shown that there are specific blood or tissue concentrations of certain nutrients that must be reached in order for these levels to become pharmacologically active. Vitamin C is a good example; high doses of Vitamin C are required in the serum and intracellular fluid before it can exert its benefits, and high concentrations cannot be achieved by taking the nutrient orally. Only IV therapy infusions can deliver pharmacologically effective doses required for total wellness without upsetting the gastrointestinal system.
