Naturopathic Clinic in Calgary
At Dr. Schlee’s Naturopathic Clinic, our team is certified to administer IV therapy for energy and metabolic support.
Why IV Therapy?
When we’re feeling fatigued, we often reach for items that give us a little ‘boost’ – caffeine, energy drinks, or other items. These are usually transient, and can include certain items that aren’t usually the best for our health – things like sugars, artificial coloring, or stimulant compounds. While not always a ‘quick fix’, getting your body to make its own powerful, long- lasting energy may be the best long-term strategy. A significant part of that strategy is sufficient nutrients for your cells to function optimally.
Getting the proper nutrients in your body is not just about the type and quantity of the nutrients you take in, but how much of these items are actually absorbed. While still effective, oral supplements only allow for smaller amounts of nutrients relative to the amounts possible for delivery by IV therapy. Delivering high doses of nutrients directly to your bloodstream can achieve powerful results, and typically provide more rapid changes than one may achieve using oral supplements.
Dr. Schlee offers various Naturopathic remedies, including vitamin and mineral therapy, regenerative injection therapy, ozone therapy, and more.
How IV Therapy Boosts Energy
By infusing the body with a specially formulated blend of fluids, vitamins and minerals, IV therapy naturally boosts your energy on a cellular level. It supplies key nutrients that our cells need to function properly, producing energy while remedying any underlying deficiencies that can result in lower energy levels. IV therapy might be a healthier, more long-term strategy than consumables such as coffee, energy drinks, and other caffeinated beverages (which can temporarily improve your energy but often leads to sugar imbalances and possibly the dreaded ‘caffeine crash’).
How IV Therapy Helps With Metabolic Support
While our metabolism naturally slows down with age, a deficiency in vitamins and minerals can amplify feelings of fatigue. Enzymes that are key players in our metabolic function need these nutrients, and lower availability minimizes their activity. While there are supplements available to help support and provide these items, their absorption is limited by the digestive system. In contrast, IV therapy efficiently and effectively bypasses the digestive tract, maximizing cellular delivery via infusion into the bloodstream.
How Can IV Therapy Work for Me?
IV therapy is a foundational approach in Naturopathic medicine to helping patients achieve better health and overall well-being. This method of natural therapy encourages and supports the body’s innate mechanisms – including healing and energy production – by maximizing available vitamin and mineral levels necessary for optimal health. IV Therapy can work in ways that traditional oral medications and supplements cannot. At Dr. Schlee’s clinic in Calgary, we provide our patients with IV therapy formulations based on their goals, current health conditions, health history, and lifestyle. We will determine what types of nutrients and minerals your body may be lacking and provide a treatment plan based on your personal needs
