IV THERAPY IN CALGARY, BUILT AROUND YOUR
BLOODWORK
WHAT IS INTRAVENOUS THERAPY?
IV therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other therapeutic nutrients directly into your bloodstream, bypassing your digestive system for efficient, direct delivery. At Paradigm Health Group, your formulation is selected and adjusted based on your health concerns, treatment goals,
medical history, lab findings and response to treatment, whether as a standalone service or as part of your broader naturopathic care plan.
There is no single IV treatment that works for everyone. Depending on the treatment, your formulation may combine different combinations and concentrations of vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, amino acids, antioxidants, glutathione and phospholipids, adjusted to reflect your individual clinical needs. Most vitamins and minerals are normally btained through food and oral supplements, but oral nutrients must first pass through your digestive system, where absorption varies from person to person. IV delivery bypasses that step, which can be useful when digestive function or nutrient absorption is a concern, when oral supplements haven’t agreed with you, or when your practitioner determines IV delivery better suits your treatment goals.

COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT IV THERAPY
IS IV THERAPY RIGHT FOR EVERYONE?
Not necessarily. Certain health conditions, medications, lab findings or other factors can affect whether IV treatment is appropriate for you. Your practitioner determines eligibility through assessment, and lab testing is required before certain therapies.
WHY CHOOSE IV THERAPY OVER ORAL SUPPLEMENTS?
Oral nutrients have to pass through your digestive system first, and absorption varies from person to person. IV administration bypasses that step and delivers nutrients directly into your circulation, which can help when digestion or absorption is a concern, or when your practitioner determines IV delivery better suits a particular treatment goal.
HOW ARE IV FORMULATIONS SELECTED FOR ME?
Your practitioner selects and adjusts your formulation based on your health concerns, treatment goals, medical history, lab findings and response to treatment. Formulations may combine different concentrations of vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, amino acids, antioxidants, glutathione and phospholipids depending on your needs.
