IV Therapy - Step-by-Step Process

The process of receiving IV therapy treatment typically involves several steps to ensure patient safety, comfort, and optimal results. Here’s a general overview of what you can expect:

• Consultation: The first step is to schedule a consultation with a healthcare provider specializing in IV therapy, such as Dr. Lauren Nawrocki. During this appointment, you’ll discuss your health history, goals, and any concerns. Dr. Nawrocki will assess your individual needs and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
• Preparation: Before your IV therapy session, you’ll be given instructions on how to prepare, such as staying hydrated and eating a light meal. You may also be asked to complete some paperwork and provide a list of current medications and supplements.
• IV Insertion: At the beginning of your session, a trained healthcare professional will clean the insertion site, typically in your arm, and gently insert a thin, sterile needle into a vein. This process is generally well-tolerated, with only minor discomfort.
• Infusion: Once the IV is in place, the customized nutrient solution will slowly infuse into your bloodstream. Depending on the specific treatment, you can relax during this time, which usually takes 30-60 minutes.
• Monitoring: Your provider will monitor you throughout the infusion to ensure your comfort and safety. They will check for any signs of adverse reactions and adjust the flow rate as needed.
• Completion: After the infusion, the IV will be carefully removed, and a small bandage will be applied to the insertion site. Your provider will give you post-treatment instructions and schedule any necessary follow-up appointments.
• Aftercare: In the hours and days following your IV therapy session, be sure to stay hydrated, eat nutrient-rich foods, and get plenty of rest. Depending on your response, you may start to notice the benefits of treatment within a few hours to a few days.
