Celebrities from Jane Fonda to John Legend have touted the benefits of IV therapy. But you don’t have to be rich and famous to enjoy the healing power of this holistic treatment that alleviates many ailments, including chronic fatigue, migraines, hangovers, jet lag, and more.

‍

At Hawaii Natural Medicine in Honolulu, HW, Dr. Jené Ferrante, ND, and her team offer patients aged 20 and older individualized IV therapy treatment in a relaxed setting.

‍

Most of us don’t get enough essential nutrients for optimal health. In some cases, a poor diet and lifestyle choices are to blame. In others, the reason is a preexisting health condition, such as food allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, or other gastrointestinal issues.

‍

You can take vitamin supplements to offset nutritional deficiencies. But when you take vitamins orally, only a tiny amount is absorbed after passing through your digestive tract.

‍

With IV therapy, a catheter inserted into a vein in your arm delivers a liquid mix of vitamins and minerals directly into your bloodstream for maximum absorption.

‍

Here are just five key benefits of this streamlined nutrition delivery system.

‍

1. IV therapy increases your energy

When you’re low on essential nutrients, it feels like you’re not firing on all cylinders. In such cases, we recommend IV therapy to replace your stores of “energy vitamins,” such as vitamin B12.

‍

2. IV therapy promotes circulation

Circulation is one of the most overlooked aspects of health and wellness. It refers to how well blood, oxygen, hormones, and nutrients move throughout your body. Good circulation promotes everything from brain acuity and heart health to a glowing complexion. IV therapy is an excellent way to stimulate your circulation quickly.

‍

3. IV therapy eases pain

Aches and pains have various causes. You can feel sore after an injury or from inflammation in your joints. IV therapy offers natural pain relief by administering vitamins like magnesium to ease pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.

‍

4. IV therapy boosts your immune system

IV therapy has immune-system-boosting properties that can help you avoid colds and viruses. Vitamin C, D, zinc, and B complex vitamins are some of the most potent sickness-fighters available. And we deliver them directly to your bloodstream.

‍

5. IV therapy rehydrates you

IV therapy isn’t just about vitamins and minerals — it’s also an excellent way to maintain hydration. Hydration regulates body temperature, joint health, infection prevention, and organ function. Ask us more about how IV therapy can supplement your regular water intake.
