IV Therapy for Energy in Edmonton

Our Naturopaths are awesome at treating fatigue in our Edmonton patients.


We can compliment our oral fatigue treatments with IV therapy.


Typically our Naturopathic doctors use IV therapy to enhance energy after hormone balancing.  


Our clinic uses vitamins, and minerals intravenously to enhance energy production pathways.


Most of the B vitamins and Magnesium play a role in energy production, and fatigue can result from a deficiency of individual B vitamins or Magnesium so we jack you up with B's and Mag as part of this IV 

The energy IV gives additional B1, B12 and Magnesium in comparison to the Myers Cocktail IV.

 

Our Naturopathic Doctors typically do a robust workup for fatigue. We always check Cortisol and DHEA levels as a reflection of Adrenal function as well as Testosterone levels (which can affect energy is both men and women). In women in particular, low DHEA and low testosterone are commonly co-occurring and have accessory symptoms like low mood and low libido. Our Naturopaths also assess Thyroid function in our fatigued patients. We do a much deeper dive into Thyroid testing than most medical doctors do and we also assess Thyroid related nutrients and arguably the most important Thyroid nutrient - Iodine! Which we see frequent low levels of in our Edmonton patients. 

 




Energy boosting IVs in Edmonton

Key Facts



1 B/S

1 small volume IV bag or large (60cc) syringe


S/P

Short length for administration: 10-15 minutes or as a push 7-10 minutes. 


Key Ingredients


B12 

High dose B12 is key to energy enhancement from this IV.

Magnesium

IV Magnesium is crucial for ATP function.

B1

Needed for crucial first step of energy production from Pyruvate.

B2

Needed for production of FAD a key Krebs intermediate 



Our Energy IVs are given with high dose B1, B2 & B12. Our Energy IV is based on the original intravenous Vitamin treatment - The Myers Cocktail. Our Naturopaths have essentially taken the Myers and have maximized the main energy producing nutrients while maintaining the rapidly infused, highly concentrated style of the Myers Cocktail.

 

High dose B12 is an essential part of this treatment. We've increased the B12 dosage by 10 fold and have changed the form from Hydroxocobalamin to Methylcobalamin - we find that the mood and cognitive benefits are enhanced with Methyl-B12. We also add in separate Riboflavin - Vitamin B2 which was part of the original IV in an extremely minimal fashion but is an important player with regards to Krebs cycle activity (as FAD) and additional B1 (Thiamine) is added which is above and beyond the Thiamine found in a standard IV B-Complex. 


Intravenous treatments are typically given 1x weekly by our Naturopaths for 3-4 weeks to enhance energy. 


This IV therapy only take 15 minutes to administer! Our Naturopaths try and give this IV in less than minutes - we find the faster it's given, the better the effect!! 


Patients often get a "booster" once every 4-8 weeks. This usually works really well for our patients outside of Edmonton - only having to drop in once every 1-2 months. 


We can compliment the IV with oral or intramuscular adjuncts (eg. AMP IM or PolyMVA IM). Your Naturopath might give you an oral B Complex and Magnesium to prolong the effects of these treatments.
