FAQ

  • IV is short for intravenous (in the vein). We provide IV hydration by using a small catheter that’s placed directly into your vein. This allows us to hydrate you more effectively and efficiently than if you were to drink water. Yes, there is a small needle involved, but once the vein is accessed, the needle comes out and the plastic catheter is left in its place.

  • IV therapy is a method to quickly administer fluids, vitamins, and medicine directly into the bloodstream. By going directly into the bloodstream, your body can absorb 100% of the vitamins; when taken orally, the body only absorbs 20% of the vitamins and the rest is wasted in urine. Our services are meant to act as supplements and not to replace oral hydration.

  • YES!

    All IVs are administered by a registered nurse and performed under a medical director. Before a client receives IV therapy, their health history is evaluated.

    Side effects from an IV drip are generally non-existent or very mild. On occasion, you may experience some discomfort, bruising, itching, inflammation, or redness at or around the site of insertion, and this could last from a few minutes to several days. However, true allergic reactions are extremely rare.

  • The whole process will take 30-45 minutes to complete. There are a few forms to complete prior to your infusion as well as a Good Faith Exam to be completed prior to your first infusion. Once you have a Good Faith Exam on file, you can bypass this step in the future!

  • Side effects are generally non-existent or very mild. On occasion, you may experience some discomfort, bruising, redness, itching, inflammation, or redness at or around the site of insertion that could last from a few minutes to several days. True allergic reactions are extremely rare. However, if you experience an allergic reaction your nurse will never leave your side and is prepared with necessary life saving medicine like Epinephrine as well as emergency protocols to contact emergency services.

  • Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but we have a 3 attempt rule. Our nurses take pride in their ability to quickly and safely administer an IV. In the event it takes more than 3 attempts, we will discuss with you if you want to continue past that point.

  • The frequency of IV therapy is determined on a patient-by-patient basis. We take a customized approach to suit your individual needs. For preventative health and wellness, we recommend two IV drips per month to help balance out any vitamin deficiencies.

  • There is a $75 travel fee for us to come to your home/office/event within 30 minutes of Roanoke or less.

    There will be an additional $25 for every 15 minutes of travel.

    Travel fees can be shared among friends, family members or clients if they all get IVs at the same time.

    All prices are given up-front when you book so there are no surprises. We pride ourselves on being as transparent as possible in our scheduling, communications and pricing.

  • We have a large variety of injections ranging from hangover relief to injections that can promote healthy skin and hair. We offer Lipo B and Lipo C injections. Lipotropic nutrients are a class of agents that plays an important role in the body’s use of fat. They enhance the liver and gallbladder’s role by decreasing fat deposits and by speeding up the metabolism and removal of fats. The liver is the key organ in the control of body fat. Vitamin B12 is used in the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. It is often used to give an energy boost, helping to increase activity levels.

  • If you have been diagnosed with heart failure, high blood pressure that is not controlled with medication, kidney failure, or are on a fluid restriction diet, IV therapy is not recommended. However, our Vitamin Injections are still available and safe for you!
