The fall and winter seasons are peak cold and flu seasons. Due to cooler weather with minimal humidity, it can be one of the worst times of year to come down with an illness! Additionally, the common cold and the flu can cause debilitating symptoms, ranging from fever and chills to body aches and diarrhea. These symptoms can disrupt the enjoyment of long-planned events or holidays, and even increase the difficulty of everyday responsibilities, like work, childcare, and fitness goals.

To help you stay prepared, learn how to use IV therapy to fortify your immune system to combat symptoms and the onset of flu and cold symptoms. Our treatment can provide assistance with draining symptoms and get you back to feeling like the best version of yourself.

Can IV Therapy Prevent the Common Cold or Flu?

The short answer is no, only human isolation can prevent the common cold and flu, however, with a potent blend of electrolytes, IV fluids, vitamins, and antioxidants, IV therapy is an effective way to fortify your immune system. How does it work? In the presence of illness, the immune system is the body's best preventative weapon.

To help maintain and bolster it, IV therapy ensures full absorption of the nutrients by bypassing your digestive system. One of the best treatments is Vitamin B Complex. It is effective at assisting with white blood cell production, which is needed to kickstart the immune response required for fighting infections. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has stated that the average adult can expect to contract between two to three colds each year. We believe that proper hydration and nutrient replenishment are essential in maintaining a healthy immune response. Our Monthly Memberships are a great way to keep your body's immune system in tip-top shape.

Recovering from the Cold and Flu

Let's say you travel a lot or were exposed to sick individuals, which unfortunately resulted in a nasty bout of the common cold or flu. IV therapy is still an effective tool in symptom recovery! At Vida-Flo we have a variety of treatments to ensure the most common symptoms, such as fever and body aches can be treated quickly. Zofran is an anti-emetic useful for combatting nausea and vomiting. Meanwhile, adequate Vitamin C levels have been clinically shown to decrease the duration of colds - on average, 8% in adults. During your visit, our highly-trained team will work with you to find the perfect treatment to get you back on your feet.

IV therapy works by using an intravenous (IV) fluid drip to deliver saline solution through a small catheter and tubing directly into the bloodstream. This saline solution may also include medications and vitamin supplements tailored to the individual patient.

During your therapy session, a medical professional will insert an IV line attached to a bag of saline solution. This bag is hung above the patient's head, using gravity to regulate the flow of fluids into the bloodstream. Compared to a syringe or other forced technique, gravity allows for a gradual introduction of fluids.

While the time frame of a single treatment varies from person to person, a session typically lasts 30 – 45 minutes. There are exceptions to this timeframe, such as with our NAD IV treatments, which generally take 1 to 2 hours per session.

IV drip therapy is highly effective in delivering nutrients, vitamins, and fluids directly to your bloodstream. Unlike oral supplements, this method bypasses the digestive system, allowing your body to absorb the maximum amount of nutrients without any loss during digestion. As a result, vitamins and nutrients are made immediately available to your cells, accelerating the benefits.

At Vida-Flo, we offer a variety of specialized IV blends designed to meet specific health goals. We also provide the option of custom-blended IV treatments to target your individual needs.

The duration of hydration therapy's benefits can vary depending on individual health factors and lifestyle choices. Some of our treatments, such as medications, provide immediate (but shorter-term) results. Our vitamin solutions are processed over a longer period, offering longer-lasting benefits.

Maintaining a regular schedule of treatments can help extend these benefits, supporting sustained hydration and improved health over time.
