WHAT IS IV INFUSION THERAPY?
Intravenous therapy (IV) is a type of treatment that administers medications directly into a patient’s veins. Originally only conducted in hospitals for thousands of dollars, IV infusion is now a safe, affordable therapy that is tailored to each patient’s specific desires, and provides a wide range of health benefits.
By selecting your specific bag of fluids premixed with certain vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that do everything from increasing energy to fighting wrinkles, you are in complete control of the benefits you receive. Because of its expansive benefits, IV therapy can be used to treat chronic diseases, improve overall wellness, and so much more.
IMPORTANT VITAMINS AND MINERALS IN OUR IV THERAPY
Without even realizing it, you are likely missing out on vitamins and minerals that are necessary to your overall health and wellness. This may be causing you to feel fatigued, get sick more often, feel more stressed, and experience a number of other negative symptoms.
Here at Apostol IFM, we offer IV infusion therapies that can reverse those deficiencies and help you live life to the fullest. By combining necessary vitamins and minerals that are often ignored into one deliverable solution, we make sure that you receive those nutrients when you need them.
WHAT ARE IM INJECTIONS?
While IV infusion therapy involves a complex combination of nutrients and minerals that improve your overall wellness, they aren’t the only way to deliver nutrients to your bloodstream quickly. Intramuscular injections, also referred to as IM injections, deliver the nutrients deep into muscle tissues, allowing them to reach your bloodstream faster and function better.
While the situation was likely different, you have almost certainly received an intramuscular injection before. If you’ve ever received a flu shot or another vaccine deep into your muscle, you already have experience with IM injections. The shots are administered in one of four locations — upper arm, hip, thigh, or buttocks.
Here at Apostol IFM, we recognize the power that IM injections can have in delivering nutrients throughout your body. IM injections are usually simpler to administer than IV infusions and contain fewer ingredients, making them less expensive. We offer more than 10 different intramuscular injections for you to choose from, including:
