If you’ve only ever thought about IV drips as a recovery tool after a big night out, you’re not alone, but there’s so much more to them.

I regularly recommend IV therapy to clients who want to feel more energised, boost their immune system, or give their skin a radiant glow.

IVs aren’t just for emergencies or exhaustion but an incredibly efficient way to deliver key nutrients your body may be craving, especially when lifestyle, stress, or the seasons start to take their toll.

Let’s take a look at what IV therapy is, how vitamin IV therapy works, and how it can support your wellbeing across every season.

What Is IV Therapy and How Does It Work?

“IV” stands for intravenous, meaning nutrients are delivered directly into your bloodstream through a small, comfortable drip. This method bypasses the digestive system, allowing your body to absorb high doses of vitamins, minerals, and fluids far more efficiently than with oral supplements.

Appointments are usually relaxing and take around 30–45 minutes. You’ll be able to sit back while your drip does its job, and most clients leave feeling refreshed and recharged. Because everyone’s needs are different, I tailor each IV formula to your specific goals, whether you’re looking to support your energy levels, improve your skin’s appearance, or boost your immune system.

We also offer IM boosters, which are single vitamin shots administered into the muscle. These are ideal when you need quick, targeted support with minimal downtime.

Spring – Reset & Recharge After Winter

It’s common to feel a little sluggish in early spring.

The colder months may have left your energy depleted, your immune system under strain, and your skin feeling dull or congested. That’s why I often recommend using IV treatment for low energy in spring as a body-wide reset.

Vitamin C, B-complex vitamins, and magnesium are advantageous at this time of year. They can help replenish what has been lost during the winter months, support cellular function, and boost low energy levels.

For many of my clients, spring is also when they begin aesthetic treatments like skin peels or microneedling, and IVs can support recovery and enhance results by providing the body with what it needs to heal and glow from within.

It’s also a great time to focus on hydration. The transition into spring often brings allergies, fluctuating weather, and fatigue. A well-formulated drip can help balance you back out and give you the momentum to feel your best.

Summer – Hydration & Skin Radiance

Between holidays, heatwaves, and long days outdoors, summer can be demanding on your skin and body. IV therapy provides a great way to stay hydrated from within, while also giving your skin a luminous boost through summer skin hydration support.

During the warmer months, I often include electrolytes, antioxidants such as glutathione, and high-dose Vitamin C to support hydration and skin health. These nutrients help combat oxidative stress from sun exposure, replenish fluid loss, and restore radiance to the skin. If you’re prepping for a special event or jetting off somewhere warm, an IV can help you look and feel your best.

It’s also worth noting that IV drips can be really helpful after summer travel. Flying can be dehydrating and fatiguing, and IV therapy can quickly replenish what’s been lost in transit. Many clients also use this time to top up their nutrients after busy holiday schedules or sleepless nights.

Autumn – Immunity & Energy as the Seasons Shift

As the weather cools and the days shorten, it’s not unusual to feel more tired, sluggish, or run down. This is when I start to see more clients wanting to support their immune system and energy levels as we move into colder months.

IV therapy for immune support during autumn often includes essential nutrients like Vitamin C, Zinc, and B12. These help strengthen the body’s defences and fight off the fatigue that can creep in when routines change and daylight disappears.

Many people underestimate just how much seasonal shifts can affect the body, from mood dips to skin changes to general lethargy. That’s why I think of IV therapy as a great way to reset in the autumn. It helps to stabilise your internal systems, giving you a strong foundation heading into winter.

Winter – Combat Fatigue, Low Mood & Dry Skin

Winter can be one of the most challenging seasons for your wellbeing. Shorter days, darker mornings, central heating, and cold weather all take a toll on both your energy and your skin.

If you tend to feel more tired or low in mood during winter, you’re not alone. Many clients come to me for IV therapy around this time to support Vitamin D levels, replenish B vitamins, and hydrate from the inside out. These nutrients play a significant role in helping your nervous system, energy production, and mood regulation.

Skin can also become dry, flaky, or dull thanks to indoor heating and cold winds. IVs that include antioxidants and hydrating minerals can help your skin stay plump and protected, even when the weather says otherwise. Whether you’re managing end-of-year stress or prepping for a festive event, IV therapy offers a gentle but powerful form of internal support.

Which IV Drip Is Right for You?

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to IV therapy.

The best drip for you will depend on your lifestyle, health needs, and seasonal concerns. There are many types of IV therapy we can choose from. I’ll always take the time to discuss what you’re hoping to achieve from your treatment and develop a formula that suits you.

Some of the most popular options I offer include:

Energy support: with B-complex vitamins and magnesium

Immune defence: with Vitamin C, Zinc, and Glutathione

Skin glow: with high-dose antioxidants and hydration

Hydration recovery: with electrolytes and fluid replenishment

And for those short on time, IM booster shots offer a quick and effective way to get key nutrients into your system without the need for a full IV drip.

How Often Should I Have an IV Drip Treatment?

How frequently you have an IV drip really depends on your goals, lifestyle, and how your body responds. Whether you’re looking to follow a regular IV therapy schedule or simply want a one-off boost, we’ll find what works best for you.

For some, a monthly top-up is the perfect way to stay balanced and energised. Others might benefit from more regular support during busy or high-stress periods, or in the lead-up to events, travel, or seasonal changes.

If you’re working on something specific, such as boosting immunity during winter or preparing your skin for a major event, we can tailor the timing to suit. I’ll always guide you based on your needs and help you build a plan that feels supportive without being overwhelming.
