What is an IV?
Intravenous (IV) fluids deliver saline solution through tubing directly into the bloodstream. This solution usually includes fluids, electrolytes, vitamins, and medications that are tailored to each individual patient.
How long are the treatments?
Treatment length varies depending on the IV therapy you choose to ensure safe absorption. On average:
- 500cc vitamin drips take 25 to 30 minutes.
- 1000mL bags take around 45 minutes.
- Specialty IVs — such as high-dose vitamin C and BR+ NAD therapy — can take an hour or more.
How do IV therapy treatments work?
IV infusions are one of the most effective ways to deliver much-needed nutrients to the body, bypassing the digestive system and allowing for faster absorption. IV infusions can impact and improve the function of a wide variety of body systems to improve overall wellness and specific ailments or needs of the body.
How often can you get an IV therapy treatment?
The frequency of IV therapy treatments should be tailored to your specific needs. Our nurses will customize a treatment plan for you that will include specific ingredients and the frequency you’ll need for your treatment.

So I had a terrible hangover, decided to go to the new lounge the atmosphere was wonderful and very clean. I was greeting upon entry and had Stephanie gave me the limitless all in one IV and I felt phenomenal after. I really recommend not only the location but Stephanie as an IV nurse she made me feel very comfortable, especially since I get nervous around needles.

I got a Super Myers IV from Stephanie two days before I went to Ibiza and it was an absolute lifesaver.
Stephanie was so friendly and knowledgeable, the space was so serene and comfortable, with just the right amount of higher end touches to make it an elevated but not intimidating environment.
I felt a bit better immediately and definitely less worn out after a day (I’d been burning out hardcore at work). I’ll definitely be back a ton moving forward.
