    Understanding the Treatment

    What Are
    Vitamin Drip Infusions?

    Vitamin drip infusions (IV nutrient therapy) deliver vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients directly into your bloodstream via intravenous infusion. This bypasses the digestive system, allowing for 100% absorption of nutrients — far superior to oral supplements which are only 20–50% absorbed.

    Why IV Nutrient Therapy?

    Immediate Availability: Nutrients reach bloodstream instantly.
    Complete Absorption: 100% bioavailability vs. 20–50% oral.
    Higher Therapeutic Doses: Can achieve blood levels impossible orally.
    Faster Results: Feel benefits within hours, not days.
    Targeted Support: Customised formulations for specific needs.

    Why Oral Supplements Fall Short

    • Breakdown by stomach acid reduces potency
    • Poor gut absorption limits nutrient delivery
    • Processing by liver before reaching bloodstream
    • Elimination before full benefit is achieved
    • Only 20–50% of nutrients actually absorbed

    Our Drip Menu

    Choose from our four signature IV formulations — from anti-ageing wellness blends to athletic performance support — each delivered in just 30–60 minutes for maximum, immediate impact.

    Fast, Effective Vitamin Delivery in Minutes

    Vitamin Injections: Quick Boost Alternative

    Prefer a quicker option than IV drips? Vitamin injections deliver targeted nutrients via intramuscular injection, taking just 5–10 minutes compared to 30–60 minutes for IV drips. While IV drips deliver higher doses and broader vitamin combinations, vitamin injections are perfect for maintenance, quick energy boosts, or targeting specific deficiencies.

    Vitamin B7 (Biotin) Injection

    from £305–10 minutes

    Benefits

    • Hair growth and strength
    • Nail health and thickness
    • Skin quality improvement
    • Metabolism of fats and carbohydrates
    • Energy production support

    Best For

    Hair/nail health, metabolism support, skin quality

    Recommended Frequency

    Weekly or bi-weekly for active treatment, monthly for maintenance

    Vitamin B12 Injection

    from £305–10 minutes

    Benefits

    • Energy boost and fatigue reduction
    • Red blood cell production
    • Nervous system health
    • Mood enhancement
    • Brain function support
    • Muscle recovery

    Best For

    Energy levels, fatigue, athletic performance, mood support

    Recommended Frequency

    Weekly for deficiency correction, bi-weekly or monthly for maintenance

    Which is Right for You?

    Vitamin Injections vs IV Drips

    Choose Vitamin Injections if:

    • You want a quick 5–10 minute appointment
    • You need targeted B7 or B12 supplementation
    • You're maintaining levels rather than correcting severe deficiency
    • You prefer a more affordable option for regular use
    • You want convenience (faster than IV drips)

    Choose IV Drips if:

    • You want comprehensive vitamin/mineral delivery
    • You need rapid hydration alongside nutrients
    • You're correcting deficiencies or seeking maximum absorption
    • You prefer a relaxing 30–60 minute treatment experience
    • You want broader nutritional support (multiple vitamins combined)

    Get the Best of Both

    Combining Injections with IV Drips

    Many clients use both delivery methods together for a comprehensive wellness protocol:

    • IV drips — monthly for comprehensive nutritional support
    • B12 injections — weekly or bi-weekly for sustained energy
    • B7 injections — weekly for hair/nail growth phases

    Your practitioner can create a personalised protocol combining both delivery methods.

    What to Expect

    During Injection

    • • Quick intramuscular injection (usually upper arm or gluteal)
    • • Brief pinch sensation
    • • Takes less than 1 minute
    • • Total appointment time: 5–10 minutes

    After Injection

    • • Possible minor soreness at injection site (resolves within hours)
    • • No downtime — return to all activities immediately
    • • Energy effects often felt within hours (B12)
    • • Hair/nail benefits develop over weeks/months (B7)

    • Directly introduces essential supplements into your blood stream, bypassing the digestive system for maximum absorption.
    • An IV drip is ideal if you have vitamin deficiencies, gut issues, chronic conditions, exercise intensely or are always on the go — vitamins, minerals and amino acids reach your cells exactly when you need them most.
