    Boost your recovery with our Cold & Flu IV Drip! When given in high concentrations, antioxidants (like vitamin C and zinc) act as pro-oxidants. This powerful treatment combines antioxidants and immune-boosting nutrients to fight off infections, reduce inflammation, and support rapid healing. Packed with Vitamin C, Zinc, and other key nutrients, it helps you recover faster, reduce symptoms, and feel revitalized.

    • Supports Immune Function: Pro-oxidants can help activate the immune system, promoting the body’s natural defense mechanisms to fight off infections like cold and flu.

    • Enhances Detoxification: Pro-oxidants can stimulate the body’s detoxifying processes, helping to clear out harmful substances and improve overall health.

    • Reduces Inflammation: When used in controlled amounts, pro-oxidants can help reduce inflammation, which is often a symptom of illness or infection.

    • Fights Pathogens: In certain conditions, pro-oxidants may help create a more hostile environment for harmful microorganisms, aiding in the body’s defense against bacteria and viruses.

    • Promotes Healing: By stimulating oxidative stress in a controlled manner, pro-oxidants can support tissue repair and recovery, helping the body heal faster from infections or injuries.

    • Restores Hydration: Replenishes fluids lost due to fever, sweating, and dehydration, helping you feel better faster.

    • Supports Recovery: Speeds up recovery by delivering key nutrients directly into your bloodstream for quicker absorption.

      *While antioxidants are known to reduce oxidative stress, pro-oxidants can be beneficial in managing it, especially when the body needs an extra boost during illness or recovery.

    • Infuse day 1, 2 and 4 of illness

    • Complimentary with antibiotics.

    • Avoid antioxidants – pro-oxidants are needed to kill bugs!

    • Added hydration is helpful: upgrade to the full bag of fluids for maximum hydration.

    • Full resolution of symptoms is not the objective.

    • The goal is to support the immune system so it can finish the job.

  • IV therapy involves the administration of fluids, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous (IV) line. This method allows for rapid absorption of nutrients, bypassing the digestive system, which can take longer to process supplements.

    Skilled Registered Nurses (RNs) carefully insert the IV catheter, monitor the infusion process, and ensure the patient’s comfort and safety. This professional oversight is crucial for achieving optimal results and addressing any potential concerns during the treatment.

    This treatment approximately takes 25-45 minutes allowing for relaxation and rejuvenation in the comfort of our serene lounge in downtown Ripon, CA.

  • Most clients experience minimal to no side effects, especially when administered by trained professionals in a controlled environment like Waves. The most common mild side effects may include slight discomfort at the injection site, or a brief sensation of warmth or flushing as the vitamins enter your system. However, these effects are typically short-lived and well tolerated.

    Choose wellness with confidence; the risks are low, and the rewards are high.

Fluids

  • Normal Saline is a sterile solution of 0.9% blend of sodium chloride used to rehydrate and replace fluids. It matches the body's fluid levels and is often used in IV hydration therapies to help with hydration.
