Frequently Asked Questions
What is IV therapy?
IV therapy delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream, bypassing your digestive system for faster absorption and more effective results.
What are the benefits of IV therapy?
- Instant hydration
- Boosted energy and immunity
- Enhanced skin health and natural glow
- Support for recovery after workouts, illness, or events
- Hangover, jet lag, and fatigue relief
Is IV therapy safe?
Yes! Our IV therapies are administered by qualified Registered Nurses using TGA-approved products, following strict medical protocols and infection control standards.
Who administers the drips?
All infusions are performed by experienced, AHPRA-registered nurses trained in IV therapy and patient care.
Is there a risk of side effects?
Side effects are rare and usually minor — such as mild bruising or temporary discomfort. A thorough health assessment is done before every treatment.
Does it hurt?
Most clients feel a small pinch during cannulation. Our nurses use the smallest gauge possible for your comfort.
How soon will I feel the effects?
Some people feel better immediately, others within a few hours or days — it depends on your body’s needs and the type of drip.
How long do the effects last?
Generally, effects last from a few days to a week or longer, based on your health, hydration levels, and lifestyle.
Can IV therapy replace oral supplements or medications?
No – it complements a healthy diet and lifestyle. It’s a wellness support, not a replacement for medical treatments or balanced nutrition.
How often should I get IV therapy?
It depends on your goals — some opt for weekly sessions, others monthly or as needed. Our nurse will recommend a safe, suitable plan.
Can I eat before or after my session?
Yes, it’s actually recommended to have a light meal and stay hydrated before and after your IV therapy.
Do I need a health check before IV therapy?
Yes – every client completes a pre-assessment and consultation with our nurse before treatment to ensure safety and suitability.
Who should avoid IV therapy?
People with certain conditions like severe kidney or heart disease, or specific allergies, may not be suitable. Our nurses will advise after assessment. We might need a referral from your GP.
