Frequently Asked Questions
What is IV Therapy?
IV (intravenous) therapy is a method of delivering fluids, vitamins, minerals, and medications directly into the bloodstream. This bypasses the digestive system, allowing for faster nutrient absorption and more immediate effects. IV therapy is often used to support hydration, energy, immune health, and recovery. While traditionally offered in clinical settings, IV therapy is now available as a mobile service throughout Washington, D.C.
What is Mobile IV Therapy?
Mobile IV therapy allows you to receive IV treatments at your location—whether at home, at work, in a hotel, or during an event. A licensed nurse comes equipped with everything needed to administer the treatment safely and comfortably on-site. This service may be a convenient option for individuals seeking flexible wellness care without the need to travel to a clinic.
