What is Intravenous (IV) Vitamin Drip Therapy?
At The PRP Lab., we offer Intravenous (IV) Vitamin Drips and Intramuscular (IM) booster shots to help you achieve optimum health and a state of physical, mental and emotional wellness.
More than 1 in 3 people take daily supplements and we know they are certainly beneficial, however, few people realise that when you ingest vitamins by mouth, only 15% of the active nutrients may eventually find their way into your bloodstream. With Intravenous Nutrition the nutrients enter your bloodstream directly and immediately to help the body to begin healing itself. You get much higher concentrations of nutrients delivered directly to your body's cells through intravenous therapy, thus allowing your body to better absorb and utilise these nutrients.
All of protocols have been thoroughly researched and developed by a team of leading medical doctors, naturopathic doctors, and nutritionists. By practicing this type of evidence-based medicine, we can tailor our IV infusions and IM boosters to ensure maximum effectiveness combined with minimal side effects.
Our IM Boosters take just seconds and the IV Infusions take 30-60mins. Many patients begin to feel the effects during the IV therapy, which then continues over the following hours and days. Soon you will be feeling refreshed, re-energised, revitalised.
The substances used in our drips are Vitamins, Minerals, and Amino Acids are classified as “Essential Nutrients” – aptly named as they are ‘essential’ for life. Essential Nutrients however are nutrients that the body cannot synthesize on its own and therefore traditionally, they were obtained from food we eat. In modern times, however, our over-cropped soil, genetically modified and over processed foods mean that many of us are severally deficient in these Essential Nutrients. By replacing our levels, under the expert advise of one of our healthcare physicians, your body can be restored to its peak fitness and maximum energy performance.
