Your questions

The IV therapy questions people actually ask

Grouped by where you are in the process rather than by topic, because that is how people arrive at them. Booking first, then what a visit involves, then safety, then cost, then what happens afterwards. If yours is not here, calling costs nothing.

Booking

Booking a visit

Availability, notice, windows and what to send.

Often, particularly on a weekday and closer to our base. Weekend mornings fill first across every area. If you know the day before, booking then gets you a better choice of window than calling on the day.
A day for a weekday slot and longer for a weekend. Longer infusions such as NAD+ need several hours of a nurse's afternoon, so those are worth booking further ahead.
An arrival window rather than a fixed minute, plus a message when your nurse is genuinely on the way. Windows are tighter closer to base and wider further out, because a long drive is not something to promise to the minute.
What is going on, anything you already take including supplements, roughly where you are and when suits. That is enough for a nurse to say whether a drip is the right answer.
You can arrange it. The person receiving the drip still does their own intake and gives their own history, because a nurse will not proceed on someone else's account of it.
Rescheduling with reasonable notice is straightforward. Very short notice can attract a fee, because a nurse has held a window and prepared for your visit.

The visit

What a visit involves

Timing, the needle, where you sit and what you need.

Budget about ninety minutes for a standard drip: the infusion is 45 to 60 minutes and the rest is intake, setup and packing out. A vitamin shot on its own is usually under fifteen minutes door to door.
The cannula going in is a brief pinch lasting a few seconds. The needle is withdrawn immediately, leaving a soft flexible tube taped in place, and most people stop noticing it once it is running.
Somewhere comfortable to sit for an hour and a sleeve that rolls up. Eat something beforehand. Everything else arrives with your nurse and leaves with them, including sharps.
Plenty of people do. Say which arm you want free before the line goes in rather than after, and your nurse will use the other one.
Yes, for the whole appointment. Nobody sets up a bag and leaves. They watch how you respond, adjust the rate, and can slow or stop the infusion in seconds.
Yes, and for a first visit many people prefer it. Mention pets or small children in the room at booking so it can be planned around.

Safety

Safety and oversight

Who administers, who should not receive one, and what can go wrong.

Registered nurses and nurse practitioners registered with the provincial nursing college, naturopathic doctors holding the separate intravenous infusion authorisation, and physicians. Administering a substance by injection is a controlled act.
Anyone with kidney failure or significant kidney impairment, heart failure, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or a known allergy to a component. Pregnancy, breastfeeding and children need a physician rather than a wellness booking.
Most commonly a cool feeling along the arm, a brief taste in the mouth, mild flushing and bruising at the site. Most people get none. Rarely an allergic reaction, which is why a clinician stays with you.
Chest tightness, difficulty breathing, itching or a rash, swelling, or feeling faint. Say so at once rather than waiting. Your nurse carries a reaction kit on every visit.
No. It is a wellness service and it does not diagnose, treat or replace care from your own physician. Severe or worsening symptoms are a reason to seek medical care rather than book a drip.
Regularly, and there is no charge when we do. Most cases are caught by screening questions on the phone. Some emerge at intake, and the visit ends there.

Cost

Cost and payment

What things cost, what gets added, and what insurance does.

Published menus in this market run from roughly $99 for a basic hydration bag to $400 and above for higher-dose NAD+, with most vitamin blends between $150 and $275. Mobile visits add a travel fee. Ranges, not a quote.
Collected in this market at roughly $50 to $100 for a mobile visit, scaling with the drive. It is charged once per visit rather than per person, which is why booking together costs less each.
An antioxidant push around $50 to $100, anti-nausea or anti-inflammatory roughly $20 to $40 each, an extra B12 about $15 to $25. Each is quoted before it goes into the line.
Public health insurance does not cover wellness infusions. Some extended health plans reimburse infusions administered by a licensed naturopathic doctor under naturopathic benefits. Ask your insurer before the visit.
The price is confirmed before a nurse sets out, so there are no surprises at the end. Anything agreed during the visit is quoted before it goes into the line.
Only if you already book regularly. It lowers the per-visit price, so it pays above a certain frequency and costs you money below it. Paying per visit until the pattern is clear is safer.

Afterwards

After your visit

What to expect, what to watch for and how often people return.

Most people notice the fluid part first, often before the bag finishes. Feeling flatter for the rest of the day is unremarkable, particularly after a longer infusion, and is not the same as feeling unwell.
Bruising and mild tenderness are ordinary and fade. Increasing redness, warmth or pain over the following days, or streaking along the vein, are reasons to seek medical care rather than wait.
It is rare and possible. A rash, swelling or breathing difficulty in the hours afterwards is a reason to seek emergency care rather than call us first.
Roughly monthly is the common rhythm among regular clients. There is no medical schedule, because this is not treatment for a condition, and your nurse will help you settle on timing rather than selling you a frequency.
Yes, and you can during it too. Eating beforehand matters more than anything afterwards, because an empty stomach is the usual cause of feeling light-headed.
Yes, in a compliant system. Your intake, the clinical approval and what was administered are recorded. That is a requirement rather than a courtesy and it matters if anything needs reviewing later.
