IV Hydration Therapy in Santa Rosa Beach, FL
Our bodies are made up of between 50 to 70% water depending on age, gender and other factors. We need and get hydration from our foods and drinking water to maintain a good balance. But there are some situations where a patient's level of dehydration requires more than just a few glasses of water. The body may need to have water infused directly into the bloodstream. This is a treatment called IV hydration, which is available at VitaLife Coastal Infusions.
What Is IV Hydration Therapy?
The normal way that the body gets water is through eating or drinking. IV hydration is the introduction of water to the body intravenously using a catheter. In addition to water, IV hydration treatments usually contain electrolytes. These are some of the ways that IV hydration benefits the body:
- Adds water to the system quickly
- Puts essential vitamins and minerals into the body
- Helps increase circulation
- Boosts the immune system
- Detoxifies the body
- Helps calm and eliminate inflammation
- Gives you energy
