IV therapy can mean anything from straightforward hydration to a prescription infusion that requires laboratory review. For patients coming from Oshkosh, Eden begins by clarifying the purpose of treatment and the information needed to assess safety.
Infusions are administered at our Green Bay clinic. Before you arrive, we explain the ingredients under consideration, expected chair time, possible risks, and whether recent blood work or medical clearance is required.
Intravenous delivery sends fluid and selected nutrients directly into circulation. That route can be useful in the right setting, but it also carries risks and does not mean an infusion is automatically beneficial for every symptom.
Recommendations vary by formulation. Some options are hydration-focused, while others are prescription therapies that require testing, dosing decisions, and closer monitoring.
We administer IV therapy through a faith-based, integrative lens, trusting that when we nourish the body with what it was designed to need, God’s restorative work can flourish from the inside out.
IV THERAPY
This isn’t just another “Pop-Up Shop”. Nutritional IV services are everywhere, many relying on fancy massage chairs and nutrients mixed into Normal Saline. You’ll feel good, but rehydration isn’t the same as real therapy, and feeling well for a day isn’t the same as actually moving the needle in your care.
Don’t get us wrong, we like a “feel-good” IV every now and then, and we certainly offer those same IVs in various packages to give you a boost of energy, support for the immune system, or enhancing your natural beauty…but we can do so much more.
Our therapeutic IVs are offered by prescription only, and require blood work be done to make sure we are offering you IVs that are safe and effective. We offer oxidative IVs such as High Dose Vitamin C that can be used in certain circumstances, as well as curcumin, green tea extract, resveratrol, and others that can be very therapeutic for folks struggling in the oncology space. It is important to be strategic how we apply these IVs for the best benefit. Contact us for a strategy session on how to make the most of our infusion offerings.
We connect each recommendation to a defined goal and relevant health information. Medications, kidney and heart function, allergies, laboratory findings, and current treatment can all influence whether an IV is appropriate.
Patients traveling from Oshkosh receive clear preparation and timing instructions before coming to Green Bay. The infusion environment is calm, and the team remains attentive throughout the visit.
Requirements depend on the formulation and intended use. Some therapeutic infusions require a prescription, recent laboratory results, and additional medical review before they can be scheduled.
Hydration-focused visits may take about 30 to 45 minutes, while some therapeutic infusions require 90 minutes or several hours. Timing is confirmed before your appointment.
Instructions vary, but arriving reasonably hydrated and having a light meal may be advised unless your clinician says otherwise. Follow the preparation guidance provided for your specific infusion.
Risks can include bruising, vein irritation, infection, fluid or electrolyte imbalance, medication interactions, and reactions to ingredients. Screening and qualified administration help manage these concerns.
Much of the initial discussion can begin by phone. Eden will explain any records, laboratory work, consultation, or clearance needed before an in-person Green Bay appointment.
Please give our office a call to see if this is the right fit for you.
We can’t wait to hear from you.
