What to Expect During Your First IV Therapy Appointment

Trying IV therapy for the first time? You are not alone. Many people are curious but do not know what to expect. At Drip Trussville, we make it simple, safe, and comfortable.

Whether you are coming in for energy, hydration, recovery, or immune support, here is what your first visit will look like.

When You Arrive

You will be greeted by a member of our team and asked to fill out a short health form. This helps us understand your goals, your medical history, and what your body may need.

A licensed nurse will review the form with you and answer any questions you have. We want to make sure your drip is safe and right for your body.

Choosing the Right Drip

Next, we will talk about your symptoms or goals. Are you tired? Feeling run down? Fighting off a cold?

Based on your needs, we will recommend the best IV drip for you. You can also choose add-ons or boosters, like B12, glutathione, or magnesium. You can learn more about those on our injectants page.

Getting Set Up

Once you decide on your drip, you will get settled in a comfortable chair. We will insert a small IV into your arm or hand. Most people say it feels like a quick pinch.

From there, the fluids and vitamins begin to flow. You can sit back and relax. Some people read, listen to music, or scroll on their phone. Others just enjoy the quiet time.

Most drips take about 30 to 45 minutes. Some take longer if you are getting something like NAD+.

During Your Infusion

You will be checked on throughout your drip. Our nurses make sure you are comfortable and feeling okay. If you ever feel cold, tired, or just need anything, we are here to help.

This is your time to relax, rehydrate, and recover.

After Your Drip

When your drip is done, we will remove the IV and make sure you feel good before you leave. Some people notice the effects right away. Others feel the benefits later that day or the next.

You might feel:

  • More energy

  • Less brain fog

  • Improved mood

  • Faster recovery

  • Better hydration

You can expect the effects to last a few days, depending on your body and what you got.

What to Wear and Bring

Wear something with sleeves that roll up easily. Bring water if you like, though we have drinks available too. Some people eat a light snack before their drip, especially if they are sensitive to vitamins on an empty stomach.

Can I Get IV Therapy at Home?

Yes. We offer mobile IV therapy in Trussville if you want to stay home. Our nurses bring everything you need and give you the same care you would get in the studio.

Want to Come More Often?
