What's the difference between an IV Drip, Booster and Shot?

IV  Drips
An IV drip involves placing a small tube called a catheter into your vein.  The selected vitamins and nutrients are mixed in a bag of hydrating electrolyte solution of either saline or lactated ringers.

 

IV Drips deliver nutrients directly to your bloodstream, bypassing the gut, and allowing for complete absorption of the vitamins and other nutrients to your system. This is the fastest and most effective way to hydrate and absorb nutrients, therefore maximizing your nutritional benefits.  

 

IV Drips infuse over 30-45 minutes.  NAD infusions infuse over 2-4 hours.

Boosters

Our boosters are formulated to enhance your overall well-being, aiming to maximize outcomes and tailor benefits and experience to meet your unique needs.   We prioritize the customization of your well-being journey, ensuring a personalized and enriching experience for optimal results.

​

Booster Benefits

Booster Administration

Various nutrients are specifically formulated to only be administered intravenously. Depending on the drip we may be able to add boosters directly to your infusion.  In some cases boosters will need to be infused in a separate mini bag over 20-30 minutes. Other nutrients are formulated for intramuscular shots given either in your gluteal muscle or arm.  Certain nutrients offer the flexibility of administration through both methods.  Booster shots are a great option when you are short on time, vitamins to go!
