What Is IV Therapy?
IV therapy is a quick and easy way to give your body a boost by delivering a personalized mix of fluids, vitamins, minerals, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream. IV therapy can quickly hydrate and restore balance within your body much faster than supplements that are taken by mouth.
IV therapy can help you feel better faster, restore your energy levels, give your skin a healthy glow, and boost your immune system to help you fight off illness. Arcadia Live Oak Medical Spa offers customized IV treatments that can specifically target your needs to help you feel refreshed, recharged, and ready to take on your next challenge.
How Does IV Therapy Work?
IV therapy has the big advantage of skipping the entire digestive process so it can quickly infuse your body with hydration, vitamins, minerals, and other vital nutrients that can instantly begin to work their magic and deliver immediate results.
Each treatment is designed specifically for you to target your specific needs and circumstances and replenish the vital nutrients that you need most.

What Does IV Therapy Involve?
- Your IV therapy treatment will start with a consultation with one of our medical professionals, who will gather information about your current health, medical history, symptoms, and your treatment goals. They will tailor your IV treatment to ensure you get the results you are looking for.
- Next, you will sit or lie down comfortably, and our highly experienced professional will sterilize the area where your IV will be inserted.
- A small needle is used to insert a thin, flexible tube (catheter) into the targeted vein (usually in your arm or hand), and then the needle is removed.
- An IV bag containing a customized mix of fluids and nutrients is connected to the tube. The IV drip is started, allowing the fluid to slowly enter your bloodstream over 30 to 60 minutes.
- The procedure is virtually painless except for the tiny prick during insertion. You may feel a cool sensation as the fluid enters your bloodstream. Most people take this time to relax, read, or rest.
- During your session, your Arcadia Live Oak Medical Spa specialist will check on you to ensure you are comfortable and everything is proceeding as expected.
- Once the drip is complete, the IV tube is removed and a small bandage is placed over the insertion spot. There is no downtime, and you can immediately resume your normal activities.
