4 Benefits of IV Therapy For Anxiety and Depression

Anxiety and depression are widespread across the U.S. and throughout the world. Although prescription drugs are available for these prevalent conditions, many patients prefer natural, drug-free solutions. IV therapy is one option to address your symptoms with vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes. 

The four key benefits of IV therapy for anxiety and depression include:

Mood Support

Many different nutrients that can be included in your IV drip have mood-boosting properties, namely B vitamins, vitamin D, and NAD+. 

  • B vitamins contribute to the production of brain chemicals that impact your mood. 
  • Vitamin D, the vitamin that you receive from sunshine, is thought to boost the availability of serotonin in the brain, leading to improved mood
  • NAD+ stimulates the production of “feel-good” brain chemicals, like serotonin. 

Combat Fatigue

IV therapy can benefit fatigue, one of the most common symptoms of anxiety and depression. It does so with the use of energy-boosting nutrients, such as NAD+, B vitamins, and magnesium. Additionally, IV therapy rapidly rehydrates the body, which helps combat fatigue and makes you feel refreshed. 

Mitochondrial Function

Damaged mitochondria in the cells are thought to play a role in cognitive shifts that can worsen anxiety and depression. NAD+ has been found to restore mitochondrial function to alleviate the complications of these cognitive shifts. 

Relaxation

Many IV drips for anxiety and depression contain magnesium. This mineral is known to work as a natural muscle relaxant and reduce blood pressure, both of which can help ease anxiety. Magnesium has also been found to help regulate hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis (HPAA) activity, which largely contributes to the body’s stress response. In helping to lower your stress levels, magnesium may provide relief from symptoms of anxiety and depression.
