What is IV therapy?

What happens during IV therapy?

Each IV therapy treatment takes anywhere from 20-180 minutes, depending on your symptoms and what is being treated. After preparing your nutrient bag and inserting the IV into your arm, Dr. Safayan or his staff monitor you while you relax in a comfortable setting.

You can rest your eyes, listen to music, read, or even sleep while the IV treatment nourishes your body.
