Drip names and formulas vary. Ask our team about the current menu at iCRYO New Braunfels.
Step 1: Start With Your Goal
Ask yourself: How do I want to feel when I walk out?
"I feel dehydrated."
Choose: a hydration drip.
Fluids and electrolytes rehydrate you quickly. Ideal after travel, illness, a big night out or a long day in the Texas heat. Long, humid summers make this one a local favorite. Read IV Therapy for Heat Dehydration in Texas.
"I'm exhausted."
Choose: an energy drip.
B vitamins support how your body produces energy. Paired with hydration, it's a popular pick for busy professionals, parents and anyone running on empty.
"I don't want to get sick."
Choose: an immune drip.
Vitamin C and zinc support normal immune function. Great before travel, during cold and flu season or when everyone at work is sniffling. For a stronger dose of vitamin C, consider a High-C IV infusion.
"I trained hard."
Choose: a recovery drip.
Fluids, electrolytes and nutrients like magnesium help you bounce back after long runs, races, river days or tough workouts. Pair it with cryotherapy or compression therapy for a full recovery session.
"I want glowing skin."
Choose: a beauty drip.
Hydration plus skin-supporting nutrients. A nice complement to facial treatments like our Neogen Face Lift.
Step 2: Consider Specialty Infusions
If you want something beyond a standard vitamin drip, ask about:
- NAD+ IV therapy for cellular energy and healthy aging. Read What Is NAD+ IV Therapy?
- Niagen, an NAD+ precursor
- High-C IV for high-dose vitamin C
- IM shots for a quick vitamin boost in about 5 minutes
Step 3: Let Our Team Help
You don't have to figure it out alone. At your visit, our medical team will:
- Review your health history
- Ask about your goals and how you've been feeling
