Feeling Run Down? IV Therapy Can Give You a Boost

The dull, dreary, cold days of winter in New York can seem endless sometimes. For many, the lack of sunshine and outdoor activity can leave you feeling sluggish, fatigued, and run down.

Fortunately, IV therapy can help, giving your body the support it needs to maintain optimal energy and vitality. At Boost Hydro, our team offers custom intravenous energy boosts to help patients banish fatigue and lethargy while improving their natural energy levels — all without medication.

Why you feel run down

America is a nation of sleep-deficient, stressed-out individuals. Data show about a third of Americans report not getting adequate sleep on a regular basis, and more than half say chronic stress is having a negative impact on their overall well-being.

On top of those figures, researchers report that many Americans suffer from micronutrient deficiencies, including low levels of vitamins and minerals necessary for metabolic function and energy production. Alarmingly, as many as 80% of Americans don’t eat the daily recommended amount of fruits and vegetables.

Winter is especially hard on your vitamin reserves. That’s because you produce vitamin D through exposure to sunlight, and when sunlight is in short supply — as it is during winter — your vitamin D levels plummet, leading to deficiencies that can have a direct impact on your mood and your energy levels.

Chronic medical conditions, like fibromyalgia, diabetes, migraines, and thyroid issues can also lead to fatigue. And, of course, everyone feels the effects of increasing demands on your time at work, at home, and in your social life.

How IV therapy can help

While you could try to alter your eating habits to improve your nutrition, there’s no denying that it takes a lot of time and effort to get the right balance of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. Plus, when you eat or take supplements, those nutrients must pass through your digestive system, where acids and enzymes can dilute them and make them far less efficient once they reach your tissues and organs.

IV therapy delivers pure micronutrients without harmful additives, and it delivers them right to your bloodstream. Your digestive tract is bypassed, which means those nutrients reach your organs and tissues directly and at full strength.

IV therapy’s versatility also allows us to tailor your treatment, focusing on the micronutrients associated with heightened energy. And because IV fluids bypass your stomach, there’s no risk of nausea or irritation, either.

Relax and rejuvenate: Your IV therapy session

IV therapy is, in itself, relaxing and refreshing. All you need to do during your therapy is recline and take it easy while the IV delivers your special formulation directly to your circulatory system.

IV infusions typically take an hour or less, and during that time, you can snooze, read, listen to music, and just relax. You can even bring an eye mask to block out light and create a deeply refreshing experience.

Once your session is over, there’s no downtime. Your body feels a boost as it starts to use those vitamins and minerals right away. Best of all, you can have repeat treatments to maintain your health and your energy naturally.
