Referenced by many different names. IV (intravenous) therapy is becoming increasingly popular for the many health and wellness benefits that accompany it. Nutrient IV Drip Therapy is a type of medical treatment that involves the administration of essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients directly into the bloodstream through an IV drip.
IV drip therapy is viewed as a more efficient and effective way to deliver vitamins and minerals to the body because it delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream – bypassing the digestive system – and resulting in a high rate of absorption.
