What is IV therapy and how does it work?
▼
IV therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and fluids directly into your bloodstream through an intravenous line, bypassing digestion for 100% absorption. This allows for rapid hydration, nutrient replenishment, and therapeutic effects that oral supplements can't match.
Is SootheIV medically supervised?
▼
Yes, all services are physician-supervised. Our nurses are hospital-trained and work under the direct medical direction of Dr. Ian Tseng, M.D. We comply with all California medical practice standards and maintain SOC 2 compliance for patient privacy and data security.
What conditions can IV therapy help with?
▼
IV therapy can help with dehydration, hangover recovery, immune system support, fatigue, migraines, athletic recovery, jet lag, and general wellness. Our treatments are customized based on your specific needs and health goals.
How long does an IV treatment take?
▼
Most IV treatments take 30-45 minutes to complete. This includes initial assessment, IV placement, infusion time, and post-treatment monitoring. We recommend planning for about 1 hour total for your appointment.
Is IV therapy safe?

When administered by trained medical professionals, IV therapy is very safe. Our nurses use sterile techniques, medical-grade equipment, and follow strict protocols. We conduct thorough health assessments before every treatment to ensure safety.
