Intravenous Drip Therapy, a New Way for Central Ohio Residents to Improve Health in 2023
Bryan Ferriman has become such a fan that he is now assistant manager at Restore Hyper Wellness Easton, which is based in Dublin and soon Upper Arlington.
COLUMBUS, Ohio — People looking to improve their health in the New Year are rolling up their sleeves to intravenous drip therapy, a fast-growing trend promising many health benefits.
“I felt more focused,” said Brian Ferriman, who first tried drip therapy two years ago.
Ferriman has become such a fan that he is now assistant manager at Restore Hyper Wellness Easton, which is based in Dublin and soon Upper Arlington.
Restore is one of dozens of similar intravenous therapy chain stores popping up in central Ohio.
“My energy during the day, my immune system in general, I also feel a lot less sick, so that helped me a lot,” Ferriman said.
Fashion therapy involves a liter of fluid (saline) mixed with essential vitamins, amino acids and energy boosters. It is administered by a registered nurse in most clinics. But why not just drink eight glasses of water and call it good?
“It happens faster and stays with you longer instead of drinking it and rushing to the bathroom,” said Restore Regional Manager Robert Sorey.
“We have a blood test to see what vitamins and minerals you are missing, and then we can develop a plan to help you get back to feeling better much faster,” Sori added. “We are not here to replace your doctor, we will always turn to you if this is outside the scope of our practice.”
Most clinics post a disclaimer on their website stating that certain services have not been evaluated and/or approved by the FDA.
Antonio Watson, a former Ohio State basketball star in the 90s, said he was willing to try drip therapy at least once.
“I just turned 50, so there’s definitely a lot to change in my diet, physical health, just trying to stay in shape,” he said.
Watson and his wife say they will first see how cryotherapy helps the former athlete’s knee pain. They walked into Restore’s Easton for the first time to start their health improvement plan.
“Definitely getting healthier, changing my diet a lot, so this will probably be in my regiment,” Watson added.
“If you have more pain and inflammation, I recommend cryotherapy and compression,” Ferriman said.
“If it’s more energy and immunity, drips are great. Detoxing if you want a sauna or even red light therapy is great for boosting collagen levels, helps your skin, helps your joints,” he added.
Each intravenous drip session takes from one hour to 90 minutes.
A registered nurse will first take your vital signs, such as your blood pressure.
Most places also do a health assessment with a registered nurse to administer an intravenous infusion. But be aware of your risks – you may have pain or bruising where the needle was inserted. Always check with your family doctor beforehand.
