New to IV Infusions? RVA RevIVe Has the Answers
It’s common to have questions about a treatment if you’ve never experienced it before. When it comes to IV wellness infusions, RVA RevIVe is the leading provider in Virginia and we have the answers to all your burning questions. We’re here to help and want you to feel secure in your decision to improve your wellness with wellness infusions from RVA RevIVe.
Infusions are perfect if you aren’t feeling your best or if you simply want to improve your overall wellness. The benefits are numerous and can help with dehydration, myalgia, fatigue, exercise performance and recovery, weight loss, skin health, immune enhancement, and so much more.
The goal of IV infusions is to deliver a controlled amount of vitamins and minerals straight into the bloodstream over time. When you visit RVA RevIVe, you’ll fill out a consent and medical history form and one of our professionals will take your vital signs. Once all the forms are filled out, you’ll choose an infusion from our extensive menu and we’ll mix your personalized IV. An IV drip will then be administered into your vein—most commonly in the wrist, elbow, or back of the hand—leading to rapid absorption and more immediate effects.
Because these infusions are bypassing the gastrointestinal tract, your body can absorb 100% of the vitamins infused. The saline used as the base is formulated for optimal hydration and is absorbed faster and better than drinking water.
Since IV infusions contain natural vitamins and supplements, there are little to no side effects. You may experience slight bruising and soreness in the injected area, but this will fade as the day progresses. Additionally you may feel a cooling or warming sensation in your arm as the vitamins are administered.
The number of times you receive treatment will depend on your specific needs. For optimal results, we recommend making an appointment bi-weekly until you are able to see a noticeable difference in your symptoms.
Some treatments are quick fixes and won’t be required more than bi-monthly, but for those designed to treat pain management and recovery, you may need to visit as often as once a week. Our certified professionals will discuss a treatment plan with you to determine a corrective course of action based on your needs.
We cannot serve patients with the following: pediatrics, pregnant women, renal disease, and congestive heart failure. Those clients may still be appropriate for injections, but possibly not the volume based infusions.
The vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants within the IV immediately enter into your bloodstream where your body absorbs the nutrients quickly. Typically you can feel the effects within an hour or so of treatment completion.
Depending on the wellness infusion you receive, it may take longer to feel effects as they’re designed for long-term benefits.
Yes! IV wellness infusions are 100% safe. At RVA RevIVe, all of our nutrients and medications are pharmaceutical grade or compounded in facilities that adhere to the highest standards. You can rest assured that your customized bag is mixed under a USP 797 compliant laminar flow hood, reducing the risk of contamination during mixing.
The entire process can take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes depending on the infusion combination you’ve requested. We can administer whole IV bags or just half—based upon your specific needs.
We use a variety of vitamins, medications, and antioxidants in our infusions. You have the ability to choose the combination you’d like based on your specific goals. Magnesium, Calcium, Vitamin C, Vitamin B complex, Zinc, Biotin, Glutathione, Ketorolac, Ondansetron, and Dexamethasone are some of the most common ingredients you’ll find within our varying wellness infusions.
