Recovery IV Therapy — Find Clinics Near You

Recovery IV therapy is designed for athletes, weekend warriors, and anyone whose body is recovering from intense physical exertion. The protocol combines amino acids (typically a blend including BCAAs — branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine), magnesium for muscle relaxation and cramp prevention, B vitamins for energy metabolism, vitamin C and glutathione for antioxidant defense against exercise-induced oxidative stress, and a litre of IV fluids for rehydration.

Intense exercise creates micro-tears in muscle fibers, depletes glycogen, generates reactive oxygen species, and disrupts fluid and electrolyte balance. Oral supplements help but absorb slowly and incompletely. Recovery IVs deliver the same nutrients at much higher concentrations directly into circulation, accelerating the rebuild-and-restore process. Many clients report meaningful reductions in delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and faster return-to-training the next day.

This drip is popular with marathoners, CrossFit athletes, cyclists, professional and college athletes, and anyone training for a specific event. It's also used by clients recovering from physical labor, long hikes, or sports vacations.
