IV Drip — START

START is Health Service's entry-level IV drip — a light hydration and micronutrient infusion designed as a first introduction to intravenous therapy or a quick top-up on a busy day. Delivered straight into the bloodstream over around half an hour in the studio's drip lounge, it is the most affordable option on the menu and a popular pairing with a hyperbaric session, which unlocks a 20% discount. A therapist reviews your goals before the drip is prepared.

The START infusion is the simplest drip in the Health Service range, intended for people trying intravenous therapy for the first time or wanting a light, fast pick-me-up rather than a comprehensive blend. Fluids and a base of micronutrients are delivered directly into a vein, which means the contents bypass the digestive system; this route is sometimes associated with more complete uptake than swallowing supplements, though individual responses vary and a drip is not a substitute for a balanced diet or medical treatment. A typical visit takes around thirty minutes. After a short chat about how you are feeling and any relevant history, a therapist places a fine cannula, usually in the forearm or back of the hand, and the solution runs in slowly while you sit in the studio's lounge. There is no recovery time afterwards and most people return to their day immediately. START is the lightest formulation offered, so it is often chosen as a regular maintenance drip or as a gentle starting point before moving up to the more loaded DETOX, POWER or FULL HEALTHSERVICE blends. Booking the drip on the same day as a hyperbaric chamber session reduces the price by 20%. Health Service prepares each infusion on site and asks about allergies and current medications beforehand; anyone with a chronic condition or who is pregnant should raise it at the consultation so suitability can be considered.
