IV Therapy in Calgary

Most people are aware of the importance of getting proper vitamins and minerals for good health. However, with our busy lifestyles, it’s easy to neglect this. IV infusion therapy is one way we can help support your overall well-being.

IV therapy, or naturopathic intravenous therapy, involves slowly infusing vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the bloodstream.

This method delivers larger doses quickly and efficiently, offering superior absorption.

Dr. Shannon Ferguson, our licensed naturopathic doctor, customizes each formula to meet your specific health needs. While IV therapy isn’t suitable for everyone, it can be a valuable addition to a care plan for eligible patients.

Main Benefits

This method allows us to deliver a large amount of nutrients and antioxidants, bypassing the limitations of gastrointestinal absorption so the body can use them immediately. Common ingredients in our IV therapy include vitamin C, magnesium, B vitamins, and glutathione. The frequency of each drip is determined for each individual and tailored to address that person’s unique needs depending on their specific health requirements and goals.

Before, During, and After IV Therapy

Before your appointment, eat within three hours and drink plenty of water. Working out earlier in the day and avoiding coffee can help if you have small or difficult veins.

During your session, you might experience minor vein discomfort and taste the vitamins as they enter your system. These sensations are to be expected, and we aim to minimize any discomfort. A short IV push can take as little as 10 minutes, while a full IV bag may take up to 45 minutes.

After your session, staying hydrated and avoiding arm workouts is important.

Insurance Coverage

While the appointment is covered by insurance, coverage for the specific ingredients used in your drip depends on your insurance company. We recommend checking with your provider to understand your coverage.
