IV therapy is a medical-grade treatment that has become part of many wellness routines. But how serious is an IV drip really? At Elevate Wellness in Wichita, we prioritize safety and clarity, helping clients understand both the benefits and precautions involved.
The Medical Foundation of IV Drips
IV therapy has long been used in hospitals for hydration, nutrient replenishment, and recovery. The same technology forms the foundation of wellness-based IV drips, just with gentler formulations and slower infusion rates for safety.
Safety and Supervision
When administered by trained professionals, IV therapy is considered very safe. The fluids used are sterile, carefully measured, and medically approved. Clinics like Elevate Wellness monitor your comfort level throughout the session to ensure you feel relaxed and secure.
Potential Risks
Though uncommon, mild side effects may include slight bruising, temporary discomfort at the insertion site, or a cool sensation as the fluids enter. These reactions are typically short-lived and minor. More serious issues are rare when performed by qualified providers.

When IV Therapy Should Be Avoided
Individuals with certain heart, kidney, or electrolyte conditions should consult their physician before receiving IV therapy. Pregnant clients should seek approval from their OB/GYN. Transparency and caution are essential for keeping treatments safe and effective.
