Myers Cocktail IV Micronutrient Therapy in Maryland and DC

One of Nava’s unique offerings to aid in the health and well-being of our clients is Intravenous (IV) Micronutrient Therapy. In the 1960s, a John Hopkins physician named Dr. John Myers formulated a special “cocktail” of key vitamins and nutrients administered through a slow intravenous infusion to help address a number of ailments and conditions.

Based on the Myers Cocktail formulation, Nava’s Intravenous (IV) Micronutrient Therapy (sometimes referred to as IV Vitamin Therapy) is used to deliver vitamins and minerals directly into the blood stream, offering superior absorption over oral supplements. We have built on the original formula of Dr. Myers and now offer several customized solutions to address a variety of health issues. This menu of unique IV’s offers many health benefits and works synergistically with Nava’s other therapies.

Nava’s Micronutrient Therapy is available throughout Maryland and Virginia, including  Columbia, MD, North Bethesda, MD, Fairfax and Ashburn, VA.

Don’t Take Our Word For It

I came to Nava for the Micronutrient Therapy when I was recovering from Guillain-Barre syndrome and the fatigue was overwhelming. If, when I started treatment 6 months ago, I was a 1 from 1-10, now I am a 17! I feel 25 years younger. I have that much strength, energy, and endurance. I would absolutely recommend Nava! The absorption of micronutrients versus oral vitamins is phenomenal. No comparison.

Four Stars!

Under the care of our collaborative team of practitioners, you can safely enjoy Nava’s different IV nutrient therapy options, which include:

  • Folic Acid – This is a B vitamin that provides the building block for all of the cells in the body.
  • Lidocaine – A stabilizer of the nervous system as well as helping reduce pain and anti-inflammatory. Also helps with absorbance of micronutrients.

This high dose Vitamin C IV helps combat cold and flu-like symptoms, as well as symptoms associated with seasonal allergies. It fights against free radicals while giving your immune system a powerful boost.

IV Rapid Recovery

Did you know every cell in your body relies on water for optimal function? Nava’s IV Rapid Recovery therapy contains many of the same vitamins and minerals as the IV Myers Cocktail with added ingredients that work to increase blood sugar levels while re-hydrating with extra fluids. The IV Rapid Recovery contains double the fluid over our standard IV and helps restore hydration and rebalance the body with electrolytes. This combination of nutrients delivers an energy boost while relieving brain fog, body aches and nausea symptoms.Touted by some as an ‘IV hangover cure’,It can also be used as an IV therapy for hangover and headache relief.

IV Detox

Feeling run down, fatigued, or suffer from brain fog? This could mean your body is overrun with toxins which can make you sick, tired, and even prevent weight loss. Our IV Detox is formulated with a high dose of your body’s most powerful detoxifying antioxidant – glutathione. Glutathione IV benefits include helping to cleanse your liver, which is the one of the most important detoxification organs in the body. The IV Detox can help increase energy, reduce brain fog and assist with focus.

IV Revitalize

Our IV Revitalize replenishes your body with electrolytes and immune-boosting vitamins and antioxidants. It is double the fluid and Vitamin C found in our standard Myers Cocktail. It is useful for those with dehydration or immune system challenges, or for anyone wanting to give their system a powerful boost.

IV Immunity

If you are looking for an IV to boost your immune system, try our IV Immunity which combines immune system strengthening with detoxification support. This IV immune booster contains double the dose of Vitamin C, along with a high dose of your body’s most powerful antioxidant – glutathione. Treatment with IV Immunity provides your system with powerful support for combating acute or chronic infections, as well as facilitating the removal of toxins from the body.

IV Anti-Aging Therapy

Our anti-aging IV therapy combines the powerful detox support of glutathione with double the fluids of our classic Myers cocktail IV. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant which can help fight free radicals, thus protecting your cells from the effects of the aging process. Vitamin C is necessary for the growth, development, and repair of human body tissue, and helps with the formation of collagen. Other key ingredients in this vitamin infusion are magnesium, which helps with blood flow and assists in repairing cells, and B-complex, which stimulates the epidermis resulting in healthy skin.

IV Total-Rejuvenation

The IV Peak Performance is optimal for athletic performance and fitness. It has the perfect combination of amino acids to help your body recover from strenuous physical activities and physically demanding lifestyles. This infusion relieves pain, decreases inflammation, and extinguishes soreness. This combination of nutrients will help to hydrate and aid in muscle recovery, boost energy, and prevent muscle fatigue. It is beneficial before or after any physical activity.

Who can benefit from IV Micronutrient Therapy?

Many individuals seeking an advantage in their athletic performance and recovery or looking to gain relief from chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and migraines, have used Myers Cocktail infusions as part an integrated wellness plan. IV therapy has also been used to improve immunity and help with the common cold, especially in individuals with poor digestive function.

Are there any side effects from IV Micronutrient Therapy?

A warm flushing sensation is the most common Myers Cocktail side effect. This typically occurs when the cocktail is administered quickly or in large doses, allowing the magnesium to cause a rapid widening of the body’s blood vessels. In rare cases this can also lead to lightheadedness or fainting. These side effects are short lived and are easily managed by adjusting the dosage and speed of administration.
