IV Therapy with Cima Health
Helping You Achieve Whole-body Wellness
IV therapy is growing in popularity as an alternative treatment for some medical conditions as well as another tool to help you achieve overall wellness. IV therapy is a type of medical treatment that involves delivering fluids, vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, and antioxidants, directly into your bloodstream through a vein.
Here at Cima Health, IV therapy is one part of an integrative plan of care for our patients. We may perform nutrient testing or a comprehensive examination to see how this treatment might benefit you.
Why IV Therapy
IV therapy is commonly used to treat dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, and certain medical conditions. An IV infusion is the fastest way for your body to rehydrate and absorb nutrients. IV infusion therapy bypasses your digestive system and delivers the electrolytes, vitamins, and minerals directly into your bloodstream.
IV therapy may also boost athletic performance. It’s why 75% of NFL teams hyperhydrate their players before a game with
IV therapy. But you don’t have to be a pro athlete to benefit. IV therapy can also help with:
- Dehydration
- Fatigue
- Nutrient and vitamin deficiencies
- Migraine headaches
- Fibromyalgia
- Weight loss
- Boosting immunity
- Hangovers

Ingredient Descriptions
ALPHA LIPOIC ACID
Alpha Lipoic Acid is an antioxidant that can act within the cell cytosol (fluid in the cell membrane) and lipid
membrane. ALA acts as an insulin mimetic to improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity by facilitating the transportation of glucose into cells and reducing fat storage. ALA supports weight management by enhancing the conversion of carbohydrates into energy. This effect limits the conversion into fats and optimizes blood sugar
levels which can improve metabolic health.
- May slow memory loss
- May fight premature skin aging from UV damage
- Help maintain optimal blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity
- Reduce the risk of oxidative damage and inflammation
- Support healthy nerve function and reduce symptoms of neuropathy
- Enhance energy production and metabolism
- Support cardiovascular health and protect against heart-related complications
- May boost immune system function and enhance disease resistance
AMINO BLEND
Amino acids are natural compounds the are used as “building blocks” by the body to create proteins. Amino acids and the proteins that are made help the body break down food, repair body tissue, and to grow and perform many other bodily functions.
Amino Blend may assist in boosting metabolism, improve energy levels, increase endurance, and help to burn fat.
ASCORBIC ACID (VITAMIN C)
Ascorbic acid is a powerful antioxidant that is well known for its role in supporting the immune system. Ascorbic acid plays a vital role in the synthesis of collagen, which is found in connective tissues, skin, blood vessels, and bones. It also aids in the absorption of dietary iron, particularly non-heme iron found in plant-based foods, by converting it into as absorbable form and increasing bioavailability.
B12 (HYDROXOCOBALAMIN)
Hydroxocobalamin is an injectable form of Vitamin B12. B12 functions as a coenzyme for DNA synthesis and the metabolism of amino acids and lipids. Low levels of Vitamin B12 can lead to fatigue and impairment of heart and neurological functions. These deficiencies can lead to tinnitus, joint pain, memory problems, depression, anxiety, poor muscle function, ataxia, changes in reflexes, and in severe cases, infertility.
B-COMPLEX
Vitamin B Complex is essential in a wide variety of functions in the body. Regular intake is essential to maintain energy production, DNA and RNA synthesis and repair, genomic and on-genomic methylation as well as synthesis of numerous neurochemicals and signaling molecules. Deficiency is normally caused by high consumption of
processed foods, lack of dairy and meat-based food in diet, excessive consumption of alcohol, and impaired absorption from GI tract or impaired storage and use by liver.
B1 (Thiamine HCl), B2 (Riboflavin-5-Phosphate Sodium), B3 (Niacinamide), B5 (Dexpanthenol), B6 (Pyridoxine HCl)
CALCIUM
Calcium helps regulate the levels of other minerals in the body. It also effects the secretory activity of endocrine and exocrine glands. Calcium plays a crucial role in intracellular signaling, neurotransmitter release, and maintaining cell membrane potential.
L-CARNITINE
Carnitine is an organic compound that is ordinarily produced in the body in amount sufficient to meet physiological requirements in the absence of disease or disorder. Carnitine is responsible for delivering fatty acids to the mitochondria in cells to be broken down and used as energy. Supplementing with Carnitine may assist in deceasing fat tissue, improving exercise performance, and reducing fatigue during strenuous workouts!
GLUTATHIONE
L-Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant comprised of amino acids cystine, glycine, and glutamic acid. It is vital to mitochondrial function and necessary to produce DNA. Glutathione naturally decreases as we age, and decrease can be amplified by stress, malnutrition, and environmental toxins. Glutathione is key in supporting immune function, metabolism, formation of sperm cells, tissue repair, and assists certain enzyme functions.
BIOTIN
Biotin (B7) in a water-soluble B Complex vitamin. Biotin is important in the catalysis of essential metabolic reactions to synthesize fatty acids, in glucogenesis, and to metabolize leucine. It ensures the biochemical production of energy during aerobic respiration. It helps in various metabolic reactions and helps to transfer carbon dioxide. Biotin is also helpful in maintaining steady blood sugar level.
- Symptoms of Biotin deficiency
- Thinning hair or loss of hair color
- Dermatitis
- Depression
- Lethargy
- Hallucinations
- Hyperesthesia (increased sensitivity to stimulation, can be felt as burning sensation)
- Paresthesia (Pins & Needles)
MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE
Magnesium Chloride supplies magnesium, which is an essential electrolyte and mineral playing a vital role in numerous biochemical processes. Magnesium is essential to nerve function, cellular metabolism, muscle
contraction, and maintenance of heart rhythm.
Magnesium is known as the “relaxation mineral”, boasting a range of benefits beyond correcting deficiency. Mg plays a large role in reducing stress and anxiety by regulating neurotransmitters. By calming the nervous system and maintaining levels of the neurotransmitter GABA, Mg promotes sleep. Additionally, it aids in the relaxation of muscle fibers, reducing tension.
L-TAURINE
Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid that is crucial to the regulation of intracellular water balance and distribution of key minerals and electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and calcium. This is essential for proper functioning of the digestive, nervous, and immune system. Taurine is also an antioxidant, fighting oxidative stress. Taurine has been found to help in conditions such as CHF, HTN, hepatitis, and high cholesterol. Taurine’s
antioxidant properties have also been sought out for cell damaging side effects linked with Chemotherapy.
Taurine benefits have also been known to combat fatigue and improve exercise performance. This has also been linked to improved mental performance, reduction in insomnia, and psychosis.
ZINC
Zinc plays an integral role in many biological functions. It plays an essential role in immune function, protein synthesis, wound healing, sexual maturation, fertility, membrane function, microcellular activity, and cellular
division. Zinc must be consumed through supplementation or diet. Zinc is very important when it comes to the immune process, being essential for T- and B- cell growth, division, and differentiation. Zinc can also act as an
antioxidant, reducing damage caused by free radicals.
Zinc is most effective when taken prophylactically during cold and flu season or within 24 hours from when symptoms appear.
ZOFRAN (ONDANSETRON)
Decreased incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting by blocking the effects of Serotonin at 5-HT3 receptor sites.
TORADOL (KETOROLAC)
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs) used for short-term management of pain.
Toradol inhibits prostaglandin synthesis, producing peripherally mediated analgesia. It also has antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties.
SKINNY SHOT
The Skinny Shot is a blend of vitamins and aminos used to assist in metabolizing fats and carbohydrates. Lipotropic and Vitamin B12 improve energy levels, boost metabolism, and help burn fat. Extra L-Carnitine gives you the needed boost for your fitness routine. It helps to preserve lean muscle while burning fat and increasing metabolism.

NAD+
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) is a coenzyme found in all cells in the body. As one of the coenzymes of Niacin, or vitamin B3, NAD plays a role in cellular metabolism while also enabling DNA repair. In a nutshell, NAD works to keep our bodies in homeostasis.
As we age, NAD decreases and the ability to recycle NAD is reduced. Supplementing NAD levels may assist with numerous ailments that are encountered as we age, including fatigue, neurological dysfunction, inflammation, skin conditions, metabolic conditions, depression, and addiction. Although infusions do benefit aging, NAD also benefits athletes who wish to improve overall performance and healing.
IV supplementation allows for NAD+ at 100% bioavailability. This means that you will have a direct line to healing as you’re in your session. NAD+ is a longer process than our normal IV hydration bags, flowing for about 2-6 hours depending on dosage. The process is a commitment to health and is recommended in multiple sessions for the best results.
Once complete, you can expect:
- Pain Relief
- Improved Mood
- Increase Energy Level
- Metabolism Benefits
- Inflammation Reduction
- Improved Post-Workout Recovery
IV Therapy FAQs
1. Does IV therapy work?
While there is little scientific research on IV therapy, our patients and thousands of other people swear by IV infusions to rid them of a hangover, help them with migraines, boost immunity, and more. The only way to see how it will work for you is to give it a try. Some of the cocktails are available without a doctor's consult, but some may be prescribed by our doctors based on your blood work and curated specifically for your needs.
2. Is IV therapy safe?
Yes, if you get the treatment in a safe, clean environment like Cima Health. A trained provider will administer the IV using only sterile needles. Your infusion will be based on your individual needs. You may have a slight reddening or small bruise at the IV site, but that will fade relatively quickly.
3. How long does IV therapy last?
The infusion treatment itself will last 45 minutes to an hour. The effect of the IV infusion therapy will start very quickly, but may take longer if you’re extremely dehydrated. The effects can last as long as a few days. Even after the fluids have left your body, the nutrients and electrolytes are still giving you some benefit as they stay in your bloodstream.
4. Is IV vitamin therapy better than taking a daily multivitamin orally?
Yes, in some instances. Taking vitamins orally works for some people, but if you want to absorb ALL of the benefits quickly into your bloodstream, IV therapy is the way to go. The reason why is when you take anything orally, your liver removes nearly 50% of vitamins and nutrients.
For that reason, IV therapy can be especially beneficial for people with digestive/abdominal issues such as leaky gut syndrome/absorption problems/irritable bowel syndrome, etc.
