Does Any of This Sound Like You?

  • You have tried oral supplements and your labs still come back showing low nutrient markers. Your gut, your stress load, or a chronic condition is keeping you from absorbing what you take by mouth, and you need a delivery method that bypasses the digestive system entirely.
  • You are investing in PRP or stem cell therapy and you want every advantage. The healing process depends on having adequate building blocks at the tissue level, and most patients are depleted before they walk through the door.
  • Chronic fatigue has become your baseline. You have adjusted your life around low energy instead of addressing the root cause. Nutrient deficiencies at the cellular level can drive persistent exhaustion that no amount of coffee or willpower will fix.
  • You catch every illness that goes around or you are recovering from one that lingered. Your immune system needs concentrated antioxidant and vitamin support that oral dosing cannot match.

If any of these sound familiar, IV nutrient therapy may be a fit for your treatment plan. A 2-hour evaluation is the fastest way to find out.

Not All IV Therapy Is the Same

Why Most IV Therapy Falls Short

IV therapy works when it is done right. When it does not produce results, it is almost always because of one of these three factors.

Factor 1

No Diagnosis, No Direction

Walk-in IV bars offer pre-made drips off a menu with no medical evaluation, no lab work, and no understanding of what your body actually needs. Without knowing your baseline nutrient levels and health history, an IV infusion is an expensive guess.

TypicalPick a drip off a menu, no medical evaluation.
Regenerative PerformanceFormulations guided by labs, clinical assessment, and your treatment plan.

Factor 2

No Connection to Your Treatment Plan

If you are undergoing PRP or stem cell therapy, generic IV drips are not designed to support your specific healing response. Growth factors need cofactors, collagen synthesis requires vitamin C, and cellular repair depends on adequate magnesium, B vitamins, and antioxidant capacity. Going into a procedure depleted is like planting seeds in dry soil.

Factor 3

No Physician Oversight

Most IV bars run on technician-only staffing with no physician on site. Dosing decisions, formulation safety review, and response monitoring all require medical training. RP physicians review every IV order, and Dr. Myers or Dr. Timmermans is on-site during infusions.

IV therapy does not have the same registry-based outcome tracking as our orthobiologic procedures. What the published research does show is that IV delivery achieves nutrient concentrations oral supplementation cannot reach, and that those concentrations matter for the biological processes your body relies on to support recovery.

Every IV at Regenerative Performance is physician-ordered. Every formulation is matched to your procedure, your labs, or your clinical picture. The combination of physician oversight and lab-guided formulation is the difference between IV therapy as medicine and IV therapy as a wellness drip.

Your recovery response is only as strong as the fuel you give it. When your body has adequate reserves of key vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, every system involved in recovery runs more efficiently. This is especially important for patients undergoing PRP or stem cell therapy, where the healing response depends on cellular machinery that requires specific cofactors to function. IV therapy ensures those cofactors are available at the concentrations your tissues need, exactly when they need them.

Find Out What Your Body Actually Needs to Support Recovery

Every IV at Regenerative Performance starts with a clinical evaluation. We review your labs, your treatment goals, and the procedures you are working through, then design a formulation matched to that picture, not a menu pick.

Physician-ordered and lab-guided. Custom RP formulations, not cookie-cutter drips. No drop-ins. All patients start with a 2-hour evaluation.

What Is IV Nutrient Therapy and How Does It Work?

IV nutrient therapy is a medical treatment that delivers vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other therapeutic compounds directly into your bloodstream through a small intravenous catheter. Because the nutrients bypass the digestive system entirely, your cells receive 100% of the dose at concentrations that oral supplements cannot achieve.

When you take a vitamin orally, it must survive stomach acid, compete for absorption in the small intestine, and pass through the liver before reaching your bloodstream. Each step reduces the amount that actually gets to your cells. IV therapy eliminates all of those bottlenecks. Nutrients reach therapeutic blood levels within minutes, allowing your body to use them immediately for energy production, immune function, tissue support, and recovery.

At Regenerative Performance, IV therapy is a clinical tool, not a wellness trend. We match formulations to your labs, your diagnosis, and the goal of the IV: whether that is supporting recovery from a regenerative procedure, addressing nutrient deficiencies, treating a chronic infection, replenishing a specific deficiency, or supporting recovery after a high-stress period or illness. The same nutrient can serve different goals depending on the case, so we tailor components, doses, and frequency to what your clinical picture calls for. Dr. Myers and Dr. Timmermans review every IV order.

Who Is IV Therapy at Regenerative Performance For?

IV therapy at Regenerative Performance is for patients in three distinct groups: those using IV adjunctively to a regenerative procedure (PRP, stem cell), those addressing a chronic condition or nutrient deficiency where IV delivery is medically indicated, and those replenishing reserves after a high-stress period or lingering illness. Provider lead and protocol depend on which group you are in.

Procedure Adjunct

Procedure-Matched IV Therapy Around PRP Injections and Stem Cell Therapy

If you are preparing for or recovering from a regenerative procedure, IV therapy provides cofactors your body uses during healing. Dr. Timmermans matches your protocol to your case rather than pulling from a fixed template, and coordinates the IV with your procedure schedule so nutrient support arrives during active tissue healing.

Best for: Pre/post PRP, post stem cell therapy. Lead provider: Dr. Drew Timmermans, ND, RMSK.

Chronic Illness Care

Custom IV Formulations for Nutrient Deficiencies and Post-Illness Recovery

For patients with chronic illness, lab-confirmed nutrient deficiencies, chronic fatigue that has not responded to oral supplementation, or lingering symptoms after an illness, Dr. Myers builds your IV protocol around your labs and your clinical picture, adjusting components and dosing to match your clinical situation.

Best for: Chronic illness, lab-confirmed nutrient deficiencies. Lead provider: Dr. Kaitlyn Myers, ND.

Performance and Recovery

Targeted IV Support for Athletes and High-Stress Professionals

When you have been through a hard training block, a competition cycle, or a high-stress quarter that drained your reserves, IV therapy replenishes the antioxidant and micronutrient capacity you spent. We design these protocols around your performance goals and adjust based on how you respond, not a "wellness drip" template.

Best for: Post-event recovery, training blocks, high-stress periods. Lead provider: Dr. Myers or Dr. Timmermans.

Conditions and Goals We Address with IV Therapy

IV therapy at Regenerative Performance supports conditions across three broad clinical groups. Provider lead and formulation are matched to which group your case falls into.

Procedure Recovery

Procedure-matched IV protocols supporting the healing response after PRP, stem cell therapy, and other regenerative procedures. Dr. Timmermans designs these around your specific procedure and recovery timeline.

  • Pre-procedure optimization (PRP, stem cell)
  • Post-procedure recovery support
  • Post-surgical recovery
  • Post-injury inflammation management
  • Athletic recovery and performance
  • Procedure-related oxidative stress

Nutrient Deficiencies and Fatigue

Lab-guided IV care for chronic illness and nutrient deficiencies where oral supplementation has not been enough. Dr. Myers leads these cases and builds the protocol around your labs and clinical picture.

  • Chronic fatigue and low energy
  • Heavy metal exposure (lab-confirmed)
  • Chronic inflammation
  • Oxidative stress and detoxification support
  • Nutrient malabsorption (gut-driven)
  • Adrenal fatigue and stress response
  • Brain fog and cognitive support
  • Migraine and tension headaches

Immune and Acute

Targeted antioxidant and immune support for acute illness, post-illness recovery, and immune-strained periods.

  • Frequent illness or recurrent infections
  • Chronic viral infections
  • Mold toxicity
  • Post-illness lingering fatigue
  • Seasonal immune support
  • Travel-related immune optimization
  • Recovery from acute infection

Honest Expectations

IV Therapy Is Probably Not Right If:

If any of these describe you, IV therapy may not be the right starting point:

  • You are looking for IV therapy as a wellness treatment without a medical reason
  • You want IV drips without physician oversight
  • You expect IV therapy alone to fix a structural problem
  • You want to skip the evaluation

Medical contraindications we screen for during evaluation:

  • Uncontrolled kidney disease (some formulations contraindicated)
  • Pregnancy without OB clearance
  • Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, which is a contraindication for high-dose vitamin C
  • Certain medications that interact with high-dose vitamin or mineral protocols (lasix, certain chemotherapy regimens, others; disclosed in pre-IV review)

We would rather be direct about what IV therapy can and cannot do than let you spend money on something that will not move the needle.

What to Expect

What to Expect During and After Your IV Therapy Session

Most sessions take 30 to 90 minutes. NAD+ infusions may take longer due to the slower drip rate required for comfort.

  1. 1

    Before Your Session

    We recommend staying well-hydrated before your appointment. If lab work has been ordered, results will guide your formulation. Eat a light meal beforehand to ensure comfort during the infusion.

  2. 2

    Your Session (30 to 90 Minutes)

    You relax in our IV lounge while nutrients are delivered through a small IV catheter. Most patients read, work on their phone, or simply rest. Session length depends on the formulation and volume. Dr. Myers, Dr. Timmermans, or trained clinical staff monitor you throughout.

  3. 3

    Same Day

    Most patients feel a noticeable increase in energy, mental clarity, or general well-being within hours. Some formulations, particularly NAD+, may cause mild warmth or flushing during the session, which resolves quickly.

  4. 4

    First Week

    The benefits of a single IV session can last several days to a week or more depending on your baseline nutrient status and the formulation used. Patients with nutrient deficiencies often notice cumulative improvement with a series of sessions.

  5. 5

    Long-Term Plan

    Dr. Myers or Dr. Timmermans works with each patient to determine the right frequency based on their goals. Some patients come in weekly during an intensive recovery phase. Others schedule monthly sessions. Patients undergoing PRP or stem cell procedures may receive IV therapy before and after their procedure as part of their treatment plan.

IV Therapy Formulations at Regenerative Performance

RP formulations are physician-ordered and tailored to your labs and clinical context when indicated. Many IVs share similar component sets when the goal is the same across patients (for example, immune support during illness). The protocol categories below describe the formulation families we use; specific dosing, additions, or substitutions are made when the clinical picture calls for it. Many of the protocols below are used off-label as part of a naturopathic clinical plan under physician supervision; see the page-end note for details.

Targeted Clinical

Chelation IV

Chelation uses agents that bind specific metals so they can be cleared from circulation. RP uses chelation only when clinical history and lab work indicate a specific clinical reason, not as a generic detox protocol.

Best for: Lab-confirmed heavy-metal exposure or toxicity with clinical symptoms

Antioxidant + Recovery

Glutathione IV

Glutathione is the body's master antioxidant, central to detoxification and oxidative-stress management. Oral glutathione is poorly bioavailable; IV delivery reaches therapeutic plasma concentrations directly.

Best for: Post-procedure recovery, oxidative stress, neurological symptom support

PRP + Recovery Support

High-Dose Vitamin C IV

At high IV doses, vitamin C reaches plasma concentrations 50 to 100 times higher than oral. We use HDIVC most often for chronic viral infection support. G6PD deficiency must be ruled out before high-dose dosing.

Best for: Chronic viral infections, immune optimization, post-illness recovery

Repletion

Iron IV

For patients with documented iron-deficiency anemia who do not tolerate or absorb oral iron, IV iron repletes faster and avoids the gastrointestinal side effects oral iron causes. Lab-confirmed deficiency required.

Best for: Lab-confirmed iron-deficiency anemia, oral-iron intolerance, malabsorption

Comprehensive Repletion

Micronutrient IV

Our micronutrient IV is an improved version of the classic Myers' cocktail. We start from the same base (B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium, calcium) and add additional vitamins and minerals to match what your labs and clinical picture call for.

Best for: General nutrient repletion, fatigue, migraines, post-illness recovery

Cellular Energy

NAD+ IV

NAD+ is a coenzyme central to cellular energy production and DNA repair. We use it adjunctively with stem cell therapy and for chronic-fatigue cases where cellular-energy support is the goal. Infusions typically run 2 to 4 hours.

Best for: Chronic fatigue, addiction recovery support, stem cell adjunct

Volume + Electrolytes

Rehydration IV

Fluid and electrolyte IV for clinical or subclinical dehydration: heat exposure, GI illness, prolonged exertion, or recovery from a depleting illness. We use balanced standardized formulations that work for most cases and adjust the components when the clinical picture calls for it.

Best for: Clinical or subclinical dehydration, GI illness recovery, heat or exertion-related fluid loss

Procedure Adjunct

Tissue Regeneration Support IV

A blend of cofactors that support collagen synthesis, soft-tissue healing, and the cellular machinery PRP and stem cell procedures rely on. Used around a defined recovery timeline for patients in active procedure care.

Best for: Pre/post PRP, post stem cell therapy, post-injury soft-tissue recovery

Immune Support

Immune IV

A higher-dose vitamin C and zinc formulation for acute immune support during illness. We use a balanced standardized dose and adjust components when the clinical picture calls for it. Not a generic 'immune drip.'

Best for: Acute illness, recurrent infections, travel or high-stress periods

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How is IV therapy at Regenerative Performance different from a typical IV bar?

At Regenerative Performance, IV therapy is physician-ordered and integrated into your medical care. Dr. Myers or Dr. Timmermans reviews your labs, selects the formulation, and matches the protocol to your treatment goals. Walk-in IV bars typically use pre-made menus with no medical evaluation, diagnosis, or physician oversight; Regenerative Performance does not offer walk-in or drop-in IV service.

Who designs and oversees IV protocols at Regenerative Performance?

Dr. Kaitlyn Myers, ND leads chronic-illness IV care: nutrient deficiencies, fatigue, immune support, chronic infection support. Dr. Drew Timmermans, ND, RMSK leads IV adjunctive to his orthobiologic procedures (PRP, stem cell therapy). Both physicians are on-site during their patients' infusions.

How is IV therapy at Regenerative Performance priced?

IV therapy at Regenerative Performance is cash-pay. Pricing varies by formulation and clinical needs and is shared during your consultation, so you know the full cost before committing. Financing is available through Advance Care Card.

Is NAD+ IV therapy FDA-approved?

NAD+ IV therapy is not FDA-approved as a drug for energy support, mitochondrial support, or longevity. Regenerative Performance uses NAD+ IV as part of a naturopathic clinical plan under physician supervision. Some other IV protocols offered at RP, such as high-dose vitamin C, are used off-label, a legal and common practice in medicine when clinical evidence and physician judgment support the use.

Do you offer Myers' cocktail at Regenerative Performance?

Yes, at Regenerative Performance the Myers' cocktail is offered as our Micronutrient IV, an improved version of the classic 1962 formulation. The base components (B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium, calcium) are the same; we add additional vitamins and minerals when the clinical picture calls for them. Patients searching for "Myers' cocktail" are looking for what we call Micronutrient IV.

How long does an IV therapy session at Regenerative Performance take?

Most IV sessions take 30 to 90 minutes. NAD+ IV runs longer, typically 2 to 4 hours, because the slower drip rate is required for comfort and tolerability.

Can I get IV therapy at Regenerative Performance without becoming a patient first?

All IV patients at Regenerative Performance begin with a 2-hour comprehensive evaluation. We do not offer walk-in or drop-in IV service. The evaluation is what makes a lab-guided protocol possible, and it is what distinguishes RP from a drip bar.

Can IV therapy support recovery from PRP or stem cell procedures?

Yes, IV therapy is one of the primary support tools used around PRP and stem cell procedures at Regenerative Performance. We use standardized formulations as the baseline and adjust components when your labs, the procedure, or the recovery timeline call for it. Dr. Timmermans coordinates the IV protocol with your procedure plan.

What are the side effects or risks of IV therapy?

IV therapy side effects at Regenerative Performance are uncommon and typically mild, such as temporary warmth or flushing during NAD+ infusions. All infusions are physician-supervised; dosing is screened for contraindications including G6PD deficiency, active infection, uncontrolled kidney disease, or pregnancy without OB clearance.

When should I notice results from IV therapy at Regenerative Performance?

Results from IV therapy at Regenerative Performance vary by formulation and condition. Hydration and electrolyte support are felt the same day. Nutrient repletion (iron, micronutrient, vitamin C) typically improves energy and lab markers over two to six weeks of sequential infusions. NAD+ and chronic-illness protocols are delivered as a course of three to six sessions, with cumulative improvement reviewed at follow-up. Individual results may vary based on baseline nutrient status, the condition, and adherence to the broader treatment plan.
