Comprehensive Guide to IV Therapy: Benefits, Treatments, and More

What is IV therapy?

IV (intravenous) therapy delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants directly into your bloodstream through a small catheter, bypassing the digestive system so your body can use a higher percentage of each nutrient. At Chambers Clinic in Scottsdale, every drip is selected and dosed by a licensed naturopathic physician based on your history, goals and — when appropriate — lab work, rather than a one-size-fits-all menu.

What IV therapy can help support

• Hydration — replenish fluids and electrolytes after illness, travel, heat or activity
• Energy & fatigue — B-complex, B12 and nutrients that support natural energy production
• Immune support — vitamin C, zinc and antioxidants to support a healthy immune response
• Athletic recovery — amino acids and nutrients that support muscle recovery
• Antioxidant & detox support — glutathione and related antioxidants
• Nutrient repletion — for people with deficiencies or absorption issues

Benefits vary by individual; your provider will recommend what's appropriate for you.
