IV Therapy services offered in Boca Raton, Boca Raton, FL
Your body doesn't produce vitamins and minerals, which means you can quickly develop a deficiency that depletes your energy, weakens your health, and prevents healing from an injury. The best option is intravenous (IV) therapy from Marina Yuabova, DNP, FNP, at National Wellness Group when you need to restore nutrients. Dr. Yuabova creates and infuses the mix of nutrients you need to support your health and wellness.

IV Therapy Q & A
What are the benefits of IV therapy?
IV therapy, also called an IV infusion or IV drip, refers to having vitamins, minerals, and fluids delivered directly into your bloodstream. The benefits of IV therapy include:
Direct access to your bloodstream
IV therapy bypasses your gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This bypass is important because nutrients get lost during digestion. If you swallow a high-dose supplement, only a small portion makes it into your bloodstream.
Optimal and accurate dosing
An IV infusion is the only way to ensure you receive a precise dose or a megadose. As a result, IV therapy leads to a higher cellular concentration of nutrients than taking supplements.
When would I need IV therapy?
National Wellness Group customizes your IV therapy to deal with many health concerns. Your infusion may:
- Treat a nutrient deficiency
- Rehydrate your body
- Boost your immune system
- Detoxify your body
- Support hormone regulation
- Enhance your sex drive
- Eliminate a hangover
- Improve your skin and appearance
- Restore an alkaline environment
- Improve athletic performance
- Promote recovery after intense activities
When your body is under stress, whether due to intense exercise, surgery, or an illness, you use more nutrients than usual and can quickly develop a deficiency; an IV infusion rapidly restores and re-energizes your body.
What conditions does IV therapy treat?
IV therapy supports your body's ability to heal from many health problems. Dr. Yuabova may recommend an IV infusion for conditions such as:
- Malnutrition
- Sports injuries
- Asthma
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Chronic viral conditions
- Cancer (during and after treatment)
Cancer treatment is one of the best researched and most supported reasons for IV therapy. This infusion typically includes high doses of vitamin C, which is toxic to cancer cells but is healthy for the rest of your body.
What should I expect during IV therapy?
Before IV therapy, Dr. Yuabova completes a health assessment. She talks with you about your treatment options and explains any risks associated with the infusion. Then she creates a mix of vitamins and minerals based on what you need.
During your IV infusion, you relax in a treatment chair, and your provider inserts the needle and starts the drip. The infusion takes 30-60 minutes; then, you're free to return to your normal activities.
