IV therapy is gaining ground as a great way to rehydrate, recover, and revitalize by delivering essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream. This safe and simple outpatient treatment bypasses your digestive system — unlike oral vitamins that take a long time to break down and get to work, IV therapy provides instant benefits.
Dr. Jerome Washington offers IV nutritional supplementation at LUNA MED SPA & WASHINGTON OB-GYN, P.A., in San Antonio, Texas, to treat a number of aches, pains, and health problems, including back and neck pain, headaches and migraines, neuropathy, and chronic fatigue. Here’s a look at who can benefit from IV therapy.
If you’re an athlete, you push your body harder than most, and if you don’t get enough vitamins and minerals to help your muscles and your mind do the work, you’re fighting an uphill battle.
We customize your IV therapy ingredients to address your specific needs, such as hydration, muscle growth, quick healing and recovery, and endurance. Your IV therapy can also help you flush out free radicals, unstable atoms that can wreck your cells and lead to illness and premature aging.
Losing weight has many challenges, but being low on essential micronutrients could be thwarting your dieting efforts. The right combination of vitamins can assist your body as it burns fat and breaks it down more efficiently. IV therapy can help you overcome dieting plateaus and lose weight faster.
You eat right, exercise, and do everything you can to take care of your physical and mental health, but sometimes life gets busy and you lose control of the factors that keep you strong and healthy. This leaves you vulnerable to viruses and bacteria that lurk on surfaces and in the air, just waiting for an opportune moment to capitalize on your weakness.
IV therapy steps in to boost your immune system when your defenses are down. In addition to strengthening you physically, it can support your mental health by staving off anxiety, stress, and depression as well as improving your concentration and cognitive skills.
Working hard and getting ahead are admirable qualities, but they also put you at risk for burnout and illness. When you overtax your mind and body, eventually, something has to give.
But you can avoid physical, mental, and emotional breakdowns by ensuring your body has the nutrients it needs to keep going strong. If you’re the type of person who burns the candle at both ends all the time, consider IV therapy to make sure you’re up to the job.

If you really want to change your skin, do it from within. IV therapy floods your system with ingredients that feed your skin, hair, and nails to slow the aging process, brighten your complexion, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and clarify acne-prone skin.
