IV therapy is usually contraindicated in people with kidney disease and heart conditions who may not be able to process large amounts of vitamins and minerals at once as it may interfere with electrolyte and fluid balance in the body. Also, if you are under 18 years old or pregnant then IV vitamin therapy is not something that Westside Wellness offers at this time. If you have any questions, please contact us and we can evaluate if IV vitamin therapy is recommended for you. Lastly, if you currently have COVID, for the safety of our nurses, we currently do not offer our services. After you test negative, please contact us and we can provide IV therapy to help you recover.
The main difference between the two is the amount of time it takes and how much hydration is provided.
“IVP”- Intravenous (through the vein) push method is the same as an IV except for the vitamins are in their concentrated form and are pushed directly into the vein via a syringe for about 3-5 minutes by a Westside Wellness registered nurse.
“IV” – Intravenous (through the vein) method of administering medications into the body. The vitamins are diluted into fluids and hung by gravity to drip slowly into the vein for about 30-45 minutes by a Westside Wellness registered nurse
If you are unsure if you want or need either an ‘IVP’ or ‘IV’, one of our RN’s will be happy to talk with you about what might be best for your situation.
Intravenous (IV) fluid drips deliver saline solution through a small catheter and tubing directly into the bloodstream. This solution usually includes medications and vitamin supplements that are tailored to the individual client. During therapy, the nurse inserts an IV line which is attached to a bag of saline solution. The bag is then hung on a pole above the client’s head. IV therapy bags are designed to let gravity, as opposed to a syringe or other forced technique, carry fluid into the veins over time. The duration of a single treatment varies from person to person, but typically lasts 30 – 45 minutes. You can learn more about IV therapy with our IV Hydration Therapy 101 here.
IV drip therapy is one of the most effective ways to deliver nutrients, vitamins, and fluids to your body, and is more efficient than oral supplements. This technique bypasses your digestive system and is administered directly into your bloodstream. Your body is able to absorb the maximum amount of nutrients and fluids since nothing is lost as a result of the digestive process. In addition, vitamins and nutrients become immediately available to your cells for use for fast results.
Westside Wellness offers twelve unique IV blends, each tailored to address a specific set of health goals. We also offer custom-blended IV treatments based on your needs. This means that you can improve your overall wellness by targeting your individual needs.
Students, families, business professionals, and athletes are just a few of the types of people who can benefit from IV drip therapy. IV drip therapy can help improve overall health and wellbeing, boost energy levels, recover from illnesses more quickly, and address a variety of specific health targets and goals.
You are always welcome to call us if you are unsure if IV therapy is right for you. We’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have about our services.
Our bodies need a consistent amount of vitamins and minerals to promote homeostasis and optimal health. Vitamin deficiencies can contribute to a variety of acute and long-term conditions. Antioxidants are an essential part of maintaining a healthy immune system, detoxifying your body and removing free radicals that can contribute to cellular damage. Antioxidants also play a role in energy production.
IV hydration is more efficient in many ways than drinking water alone. The IV hydration therapy process offers you a quicker way to deliver fluids directly into the bloodstream and as such is more effective than drinking ordinary water. The difference is that IV fluids comprise a saline solution made of vital vitamins and minerals that help restore your body’s water-electrolytes balance at a cellular level.
This can be dependent on a variety of reasons such as the individual’s physical condition, hydration status and needs, metabolism, etc. Most people, however, start to feel the positive effects right away as the IV fluids replenish vitamins and electrolytes immediately. Some people also feel energized and refreshed!
Depending on how quickly your body metabolizes and uses the vitamins, the effects can be felt for approximately three days to a week. Some may feel the benefits longer but it is all dependent upon a number of different factors such as the type of drip you get, reason for drip, lifestyle, etc.
Relax and enjoy the benefits of your IV Vitamin therapy treatment! There is no standardized “post” care after IV therapy so you can go about your day as usual.
Depending on the infusion, some patients get an IV infusion up to twice a week. You have the option to do weekly, biweekly or monthly treatments depending on your individual needs. We recommend getting an IV when you feel the need to boost your energy levels, boost your immune system, travel frequently, or just want to maintain optimal health.
Yes, you can take oral supplements, however they need to be digested and absorbed through your GI tract. During that process, up to 80% of the nutritional value is lost. Therefore, only 20% or so of the oral supplements you are taking gets absorbed into your bloodstream. When receiving an IV drip from Westside Wellness, the vitamin, minerals and nutrients bypass your digestive system and is administered directly into your bloodstream. Your body is able to absorb the maximum amount of nutrients and fluids since nothing is lost as a result of the digestive process. In addition, vitamins and nutrients become immediately available to your cells for use for fast results.
Eating healthy a great head start, but it’s hard to get all of your nutrients just from the foods you eat. IV vitamin therapy ensures your body has the nutrients it needs to operate at its best and maintain your health.
While you’re hooked up to the IV, you can watch TV, call a friend, read a book, check social media, meditate, take a nap or just chill.
The nurse will remove the catheter from your arm (don’t worry; it’s painless) and place a small dressing of gauze and coban self-adhesive wrap on the area. The wrap will apply slight pressure to the injection site to prevent any bleeding or bruising. We recommend you keep the dressing on for about 45-60 minutes.

Absolutely. A lot of our clients use IV therapy treatments as part of their regular wellness routine, or to prepare for a big event. Some of our packages are also ideal for boosting your immune system during cold and flu season. Athletes and other people who train heavily use our formulas to improve performance and recovery. Others just like looking and feeling hydrated and well-rested prior to an important event. Please be advised that hydration therapy may reduce your chances of getting a hangover, but we don’t guarantee anything.
