IV Therapy for Adults and Children

Mar 03, 2023

Infusion therapy has many benefits, whether it's providing essential nutrients, addressing dehydration, or just simply making people feel better. At Saving Grace, we provide infusion services for both adults and children.


Infusions Services for Adults


If you’re like many people, you probably take a multivitamin or supplement every day. Did you know that since the vitamins and supplements we take orally have to go through the digestive tract, our bodies can only absorb about one half of the nutrients?


Intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy allows for 100% absorption and leaves you feeling hydrated and refreshed! 

 

IVs can be used for a wide variety of reasons. Patients utilize IV vitamin replacement to have that quick recharge and often report feeling better by the time the IV is complete. IV therapy is great for when you are recovering from surgery, after an illness (such as the flu or stomach bug), post workout/running marathon, for anti-aging and for people who have gene mutations that make it difficult to absorb vitamins. 

 

They are also beneficial when traveling to avoid or recover from jet lag and dehydration. Different formulations are available based upon symptoms and desired result and can be highly specific such as IV’s formulated to benefit hair and nails. In short, many vitamins are difficult (if not impossible) to obtain in our daily diet. So, the opportunity to receive these vital nutrients at the cellular level is a great way to support a healthy lifestyle. Anti-aging vitamins administered via IV allow patient to achieve optimal therapeutic levels.


Infusion Services for Children


In pediatrics, certain IV fluids or medication serve several purposes including rehydration and anti-nausea (very helpful for a variety of stomach bugs) to help your child recover quickly.


Another common use is to treat migraine - especially for the teenager who often suffers with these terrible and recurrent headaches. IV therapy can be given with a special “headache formulation” to help with the acute pain and rid them of their headache quickly. It is terrible to watch your child suffer with pain and IVs are an option to help in these instances.
