Type
IV Vitamin Therapy
Duration
45 min
A 45-minute high-dose intravenous vitamin C infusion delivering ascorbic acid directly into the bloodstream for immune support, antioxidant protection, and collagen synthesis.
High-dose intravenous vitamin C bypasses the absorption limitations of oral supplementation — the gut can only absorb around 200mg at a time before reaching saturation, whereas IV delivery achieves plasma concentrations 50 to 100 times higher. At these elevated levels, vitamin C transitions from a simple antioxidant to a pro-oxidant in diseased tissue while remaining protective of healthy cells, a mechanism that has driven significant research interest in high-dose IV vitamin C for immune modulation. The infusion at heal. delivers a clinically meaningful dose of ascorbic acid over 45 minutes, allowing time for the body to process and distribute the nutrient without the gastrointestinal side effects (bloating, diarrhoea) that accompany high oral doses. The treatment is administered by trained practitioners who monitor the infusion rate and adjust according to individual tolerance. Vitamin C plays essential roles beyond immune defence: it is a required cofactor for collagen synthesis (skin, joint, and vascular health), carnitine production (fat metabolism and energy), and neurotransmitter synthesis (dopamine, norepinephrine). Chronic stress, pollution exposure, intense exercise, and illness all increase vitamin C turnover, making periodic high-dose replenishment particularly relevant for urban professionals and frequent travellers. At €79 per session, the Vitamin C infusion is the entry point to heal.'s IV therapy programme and is often recommended as a standalone immune boost or as the foundation for more comprehensive infusion protocols.
