NAD

NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. It is a coenzyme found in all living cells and has even been called an anti-aging molecule because of the many important roles it plays in promoting health and prolonging lifespan. This powerful molecule has a lot of potential for new therapeutic opportunities. Studies have shown that it can help battle many effects of aging and chronic conditions on the human body and brain.

High Dose Vitamin C

When taken by intravenous (IV) infusion, vitamin C can reach much higher levels in the blood than when it is taken by mouth. Studies suggest that these higher levels of vitamin C may be beneficial for chronic infections and patients with certain types of cancer. We are happy to work with your care team to determine if this treatment option would be beneficial for you. All patients receiving a dose of 15 grams or more will require a G6PD test prior to starting treatment.

How IV Vitamin Therapy Works

Our IV vitamin treatments are designed to deliver fast, effective hydration and nutrient support, helping your body recover, recharge, and keep up with your day.

Step 1: Personalized Wellness Assessment

Your visit begins with a quick consultation to understand your hydration levels, energy, and lifestyle. From there, we recommend an IV blend customized to your body’s needs.

Step 2: Customized IV Formulation

Your treatment is prepared using a targeted mix of fluids, vitamins, and nutrients to support energy, immunity, recovery, or overall wellness.

Step 3: Comfortable IV Infusion

You’ll relax in a comfortable setting while your IV is administered. Because nutrients go directly into your bloodstream, your body absorbs them quickly and efficiently.

Step 4: Post-Treatment Recharge

Many clients start to feel refreshed and more energized during or shortly after their session, making it an easy reset in the middle of a busy day.

What to Expect After IV Vitamin Therapy

Most clients experience little to no downtime after IV therapy.

You may notice:

  • Increased hydration and reduced fatigue
  • Improved energy levels within hours
  • Enhanced recovery over the next 24–48 hours

To get the most out of your treatment, we recommend:

  • Staying hydrated throughout the day
  • Avoiding excessive alcohol immediately after treatment
  • Continuing regular wellness support as needed

Because many people in the San Carlos area lead busy, active lifestyles, IV therapy offers a simple way to support your health without slowing down your routine.

Treatment Plan

Please come to your appointment in comfortable clothes with short sleeves or loose sleeves that can be rolled up. Please come hydrated and eat a light snack beforehand. Let us know if you are taking any medications or have a history of kidney or heart problems.

During an IV vitamin infusion, we begin by first sanitizing the skin where the needle will be in the vein. A thin needle inside a catheter is then used to pierce the skin and insert the catheter into the vein. The catheter is taped to hold it in place. The process itself is generally painless, other than a slight pinch during insertion. The IV line is attached to a bag containing a saline solution with several different vitamins that’s hung high above the patient’s head. IVs work with the help of gravity, which pushes the fluid down into the blood. Almost all of our IV treatment options generally take 30-45 minutes. You will be able to use this time to relax, use your phone or laptop, or ask questions about other treatments.

There are no restrictions after your treatment and most patients report a feeling of relaxation or wellness shortly after. Resume your normal acitivies, go back to work, or exercise etc. Some patients report more energy and better sleep that same day, while others report that it takes 1-2 days to feel “a difference”. However, even if you feel exactly the same, you are still receiving the same benefits of each treatment. Very few side effects have been reported with IV vitamin infusions, but please reach out to us directly with any concerns or questions after your treatment.
