IV Hydration Therapy Clinic Q&A

As a form of therapy, IV therapy can help the body function properly and more optimally. With the therapy, a patient hydrates their body and gives it the vitamins and minerals it needs and might not be getting enough of or receiving adequately. All this helps to properly and thoroughly hydrate the body and may even correct a nutritional deficiency.

There are some big benefits of IV therapy over other methods of hydrating or nourishing the body, like oral supplementation. For one, with IV therapy, nutrients are put right into the patient’s bloodstream where they’re carried throughout the entire body and absorbed very quickly and efficiently. The other benefit of IV therapy is that it hydrates the body thoroughly which is especially beneficial for patients with chronic dehydration.

There can be other benefits of IV therapy for other patients, like less fatigue during the day, better sleep during the night, faster jet lag recovery, and better production of red blood cells. Athletes can benefit from IV therapy too with a faster recovery time.

The therapy works for different patients in different ways, but when it helps fix a nutritional deficiency or helps to hydrate the body, the therapy can relieve symptoms like fatigue and poor memory. As a result, a patient may benefit from an overall improvement in their wellness and quality of life. Some studies of IV therapy had patients reporting improvements to their sleep, ailment recovery time, energy levels, and overall wellness. With some studies using high doses of vitamin C, patients reported a better quality of life.

If you believe you have a nutritional deficiency or difficulty staying properly hydrated, we can test for an issue here at SoCal Urgent Care. And if it turns out that you’d benefit from IV therapy, we can provide it easily. The therapy itself is simple, using only an IV, so you’ll be able to relax in a private room and enjoy any activity you like. A single session lasts only about 45 minutes, and then you can get back to your regular activities. You’ll probably feel rejuvenated throughout the rest of the day and for many days after!

You’ll notice many of the effects for about 3 to 4 days, and after that, even though you may not notice the effects, you’ll still be experiencing clinical effects. And after the effects wear off, you’ll simply get another treatment. Weekly, biweekly, or monthly treatments might be best for you, depending on your needs and your health. One of our doctors here at SoCal Urgent Care can help you decide how to proceed with IV therapy. Come see us today or soon for a consultation!
