IV therapy has become one of the most popular wellness treatments for people looking to improve energy, hydration, immune support, and recovery.
Unlike oral supplements, IV therapy delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream, allowing the body to absorb nutrients more efficiently.
At Organic Well in Coconut Grove, Miami, IV therapy is provided as part of a personalized, physician-guided approach to health and wellness.
How IV therapy works
IV therapy bypasses the digestive system and delivers nutrients directly into circulation. This allows for faster availability and more efficient absorption compared to oral supplements.
IV infusions may include combinations of:
- hydration fluids
- B vitamins
- vitamin C
- magnesium
- amino acids
- antioxidants
Each infusion can be tailored to individual needs and wellness goals.
Common reasons people choose IV therapy
Many patients seek IV therapy for support with:
- low energy levels
- dehydration
- immune support
- recovery after travel
- exercise recovery
- stress-related fatigue
- wellness optimization
IV therapy can be used occasionally or as part of a broader wellness plan.
Hydration and energy support
Dehydration and nutrient depletion can affect energy, concentration, and physical performance.
IV hydration therapy helps restore fluid balance while delivering nutrients that support cellular energy production.
Many patients report feeling more refreshed and energized after hydration-focused infusions.
Immune support and recovery
Vitamin C, zinc, and antioxidant nutrients are often included in immune-support IV formulations.
These nutrients play a role in supporting immune function, reducing oxidative stress, and helping the body recover during periods of physical or mental strain.
IV therapy is often used during travel, seasonal illness, or periods of increased stress.
Personalized IV therapy at Organic Well
At Organic Well in Coconut Grove, Miami, IV therapy is guided by Dr. Elizabeth Isalguez, an internal medicine physician specializing in functional and integrative medicine.
Before treatment, patients receive a brief evaluation to determine the most appropriate infusion based on their health goals and history.
IV therapy is used as part of a comprehensive wellness strategy rather than a one-size-fits-all treatment.
Who IV therapy may benefit
IV therapy may be helpful for:
- busy professionals
- athletes
- frequent travelers
- individuals experiencing fatigue
- people recovering from illness
- patients focused on preventive wellness
A personalized consultation helps determine the most appropriate approach.

Evidence
What the research says
We cite the studies directly, including where the evidence is thin. Every link goes to the primary source.
A recent pharmacokinetic study of oral vitamin C showed that plasma vitamin C concentrations are little affected by oral administration, because of poor bioavailability.
Suh S-Y et al. Intravenous vitamin C administration reduces fatigue in office workers: a double-blind randomized controlled trial. Nutrition Journal, 2012.
141 healthy adults randomized to 10 g intravenous vitamin C or saline. The physiological argument for the intravenous route (bypassing an absorption ceiling) is real, but the clinical claims built on top of it often run well ahead of it.
Given the low certainty of evidence, this potentially life-saving therapy warrants further studies to identify the optimal timing, dosage, treatment duration.

Even in the setting with the most intensive research behind it, the honest summary is uncertainty about dose and timing rather than a settled protocol.
These claims, although widely publicized by celebrities and influencers, lack support from large-scale, randomized controlled trials.

The benefits worth claiming are the specific ones: correcting a measured deficiency, restoring hydration, and delivering nutrients when absorption is genuinely impaired.
