Athletic Recovery IV

A recovery-focused IV drip combining the Myers' Cocktail nutrient base with essential amino acids for muscle repair and protein synthesis support. Designed for athletes and active individuals recovering from intensive training, competition, or physical events. Administered over approximately 60 minutes with physician supervision.

The Athletic Recovery IV at Infinite Health Zone combines the clinic's comprehensive Myers' Cocktail base — magnesium, B12, B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, glutathione, and zinc — with essential amino acids that support muscle protein synthesis and tissue repair. Intense physical training creates microtrauma in muscle fibres, depletes glycogen stores, and can transiently suppress immune function. While nutrition and rest are the foundations of recovery, intravenous nutrient delivery may support the recovery process by rapidly replenishing nutrients that are consumed at higher rates during intense exercise. Magnesium plays a key role in muscle relaxation and is lost through sweat during exercise. B vitamins are cofactors in energy metabolism pathways. Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis — relevant for connective tissue repair — and glutathione helps manage the oxidative stress generated by high-intensity activity. The addition of essential amino acids provides the building blocks for muscle repair and adaptation. The infusion takes approximately 60 minutes and is administered in the clinic's Union Square location. All sessions are physician-supervised with vital sign monitoring, consistent with Dr. Ahluwalia's clinical standards. Athletes commonly schedule sessions within 24-48 hours after intensive training blocks, competitions, or multi-day events. Add-on options including extra vitamin C, vitamin D, or B12 shots are available for patients who want to customise their recovery protocol.
