A boost from within

Feeling tired, sluggish and having that head fog you get when you’re run down? It’s only March, so best you pull yourself towards yourself. When I’m feeling like I need a little boost I like to treat myself to an IV boost. I swear by these drips, they really work, even if just for a week. Everyone is different, some people feel the effects for longer, I usually feel the difference for about a week though.

What does an IV drip assist with?

• Rehydration, especially if you’re hung over
• Recovery from training
• Increased energy levels
• Reduced fatigue
• Decrease in stress
• Boosts the immune system

I recently visited the IV bar at Morningside shopping center, they do also have a branch at Blu Bird shopping center. What I liked about this IV bar, is that you can have the drip gently and safely administered by a registered nurse, in a sterile, tranquil, and comfortable lounge.

The IV Bar’s menu of vitamin drips includes immune boosters, energy enhancers, and detox infusions to name a few. The best thing about these drips is that they’re administered and complete within 30 minutes and you will begin to feel the effects immediately.

There’s definitely been a global shift towards holistic treatments to enhance wellness. Combined with eating well and exercising, this therapy can improve health and reduce illness.

Our top 10 reasons to drip

1. Immediate benefits and no side effects: You will feel the benefits of IV vitamin therapy almost instantly, depending on which infusion you choose. There are no side-effects of IV vitamin therapy, there’s no need to prepare in any way before the infusion, and there’s no recovery time once the infusion is complete.

• Feeling run down: Illness means that your gut is often inflamed, making it difficult to digest vitamin supplements. Intravenous vitamin infusions are absorbed directly into the blood stream, without having to be processed through the digestive system.

• Fast: IV vitamin therapy is quick – it takes just 15-30 minutes to infuse, depending on the cocktail you choose. You can read, catch up on mail or make phone calls while the infusion takes place – or you can choose to make your IV vitamin therapy your down- time – a chance to disconnect and de-stress.

• Stress and fatigue: Chronic and adrenal fatigue are caused by so much more than stress – they are most frequently caused by a vitamin and nutrient deficiency. Set this right by choosing a drip that will restore the vitamins and nutrients you need and give you the energy boost you require.

• Sports recovery: Athletes often turn to vitamin and nutrient rich IV therapy for an added boost before a big event, and after an event for faster recovery.

• Skin brightening: Hormones, stress, environment and ageing all affect our skin. The IV Bar’s skin brightening drip tightens and brightens skin and helps with a natural glow.

• Migraines: The IV Bar’s Jet Fuel, with its high magnesium boost, helps decrease the frequency and severity of migraines.
• Auto-immune: IV vitamin therapy supports the treatment of autoimmune conditions such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and scleroderma by providing essential nutrients and decreasing inflammation.

• Goodbye Hangover: Say goodbye to hangovers and hello to feeling 100% again in just 30 minutes.

1. No prescription needed: You don’t need a prescription from a medical doctor to enjoy the benefits of IV therapy. But it is essential that you discuss your needs with our registered nurse, who can consult with our on-site medical doctor, if required.
