How often should you do IV therapy?
There is no single answer to 'how often.' Each of our protocols has a different optimal cadence, driven by the half-life of the active components and the biological cycle being supported.
Under-dosing wastes the protocol; over-dosing strains the body without adding benefit. The cadence is part of the protocol.
Routine protocols
Foundation — once a week is the standard cadence for the hydration plus baseline-micronutrient profile. Some clients run twice weekly across travel weeks or recovery from illness.
Beauty Elite — weekly across the 4-week introductory protocol, then monthly maintenance. The cadence matches the ~28-day epidermal turnover cycle.
Performance — within the 12-hour window after a heavy session, and across 3–5 sessions in a recovery block. Not a weekly long-term protocol unless the training load justifies it.
Maintenance protocols
Detox — quarterly. Targets background oxidative load over the seasonal cycle. Some clients add one off-cycle session during heavy oxidative-stress weeks.
Anti-aging 35+ — monthly. The cellular cofactor effect builds across at least three consecutive monthly sessions.
Anti-aging 55+ — quarterly, after a documented Anti-aging 35+ baseline. Not a higher-frequency replacement for Anti-aging 35+.
On-demand protocols
Recovery — single session, no maintenance protocol. Taken when needed: morning after a long event, jet lag, the first day of a heavy travel week.
Common questions
- Can I do more than the recommended cadence?
- For most formulas, more frequent doesn't add benefit and adds vein and metabolic load. We don't run weekly NAD⁺ or weekly high-dose Detox protocols outside specific indications.
- Can I combine formulas in the same session?
- Some combinations work, others compete. Foundation and Beauty Elite run on alternating weeks. Detox and Anti-aging 35+ run a week apart in the same maintenance month. We don't run Anti-aging 35+ and Anti-aging 55+ in the same month.
- How long should I commit before judging effect?
- Three consecutive sessions for Anti-aging 35+. The 4-week protocol for Beauty Elite. A quarter for Detox. Foundation and Recovery are felt same-day. Performance across a single training block.
