Some deficiencies can't be fixed with a pill.
When absorption is compromised or repletion needs to be fast, intravenous delivery bypasses the gut entirely. At Meliora, every flow is mixed fresh the same day and tailored to your labs — not a pre-bagged generic drip.
The Framework
Twelve years of practice, distilled into The Meliora Method.™
Why intravenous delivery matters for some patients.
Oral supplements have to survive your digestive system before they can reach your cells. If your gut is inflamed, if you have low stomach acid, if absorption is compromised by medications or chronic illness — you may be taking supplements that aren't actually working. IV delivery bypasses this entirely: nutrients go directly into the bloodstream at 100% bioavailability.
For some patients, IV therapy is the most efficient path to repletion — particularly those with significant B12 deficiency, very low vitamin D, compromised gut function, or high demand states like illness recovery or intensive training.
At Meliora, IV therapy is a clinical tool — not a wellness amenity. We use it when labs indicate it's the most effective delivery method for your specific deficiencies. Every protocol is reviewed against your current lab values and clinical picture.
Choose Your Flow
Targeted IV flows.
Each flow is a targeted blend for a specific goal — custom-made and prepared fresh the same day, never pre-bagged. Every flow hydrates the body and replenishes vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants, and can be tailored to your labs.
Slim Flow
Weight loss support, increased metabolism
Energy Flow
Fatigue and exhaustion, before and after travel, stress support, overall health and wellness
Revive Flow
Hangover, post-alcohol recovery, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, food poisoning
Glow Flow
Hair, skin and nails support, collagen boost, anti-aging, wound healing
Feel Better Flow
Cold, flu, viral illness, sick contacts
Neuro Flow
Mental fatigue, brain fog, increased focus, headaches and migraines
Iron Flow
Anemia, low ferritin, extreme fatigue
Meliora patients only
Custom Flow
Made for your specific micronutrient deficiencies
Specialty infusions & add-ons.
Beyond the flows, these targeted infusions can be given on their own or added to a flow based on your labs and clinical picture.
High-Dose Vitamin C
Immune support, collagen synthesis, adrenal support, and antioxidant function. Used in illness recovery, chronic fatigue, and as adjunctive support for patients undergoing significant metabolic intervention.
NAD+ Infusion
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide — a coenzyme critical to cellular energy production, DNA repair, and mitochondrial function. Levels decline with age. IV delivery achieves cellular concentrations that oral supplements cannot.
Glutathione Push
The body's primary antioxidant and detoxification cofactor. Supports liver function, cellular protection, and immune response. Often added as a finishing push to other infusion protocols.
Custom Repletion Protocols
Individualized formulations based on your specific deficiencies — high-dose B12, magnesium, amino acids, or combinations — built from your labs and clinical presentation.
The Meliora Difference
Your protocol, built from your labs.
Most IV bars hand you a pre-bagged generic drip. We don't. Every flow at Meliora is mixed fresh the same day and can be refined with Dr. Chua against your current lab values and clinical picture — so what goes into the bag is what your body actually needs.
- Mixed fresh the same day — never pre-bagged or sitting ready-made
- Reviewed against your hormones, nutrient panel, and inflammation markers
- Adjusted between sessions as your levels rebuild
- Delivered in a calm, private setting — not an open lounge
IV therapy is most valuable for:
Patients with compromised absorption
GI conditions, low stomach acid, post-surgical changes, or medication interactions that impair nutrient absorption from oral supplementation.
Patients with significant deficiencies
When labs show severe depletion — B12 below 200, vitamin D below 20 — IV delivery gets levels up faster than oral supplementation alone.
Patients in high-demand states
Illness recovery, post-surgical healing, intensive athletic training, or periods of high physiological stress that accelerate nutrient depletion.
Patients who need faster results
Some clinical situations benefit from the speed of IV delivery — particularly when hormonal treatment is underway and nutrient cofactors need to be in place quickly to support it.
What to Expect
What to expect.
01
Lab review
We review your current nutrient labs before recommending IV therapy. If you don't have recent labs, we'll draw them as part of your initial assessment.
02
In-office infusion
Our IV suite is comfortable and private. Infusions typically take 30–90 minutes depending on the protocol. You can read, work, or rest during the infusion.
03
Monitoring and repeat
We track your lab response over time and adjust frequency and formulation based on how your levels respond. IV therapy is not indefinite — the goal is to achieve stable levels that oral supplementation can maintain.
Common questions.
Is IV therapy safe?
IV nutrient therapy is well-tolerated by most patients. All protocols are reviewed against your labs and health history before administration. Minor side effects (cool sensation, mild fatigue) are possible. Serious adverse events are rare with appropriate clinical oversight.
How often would I need IV therapy?
This depends on your labs and clinical picture. Some patients benefit from an initial intensive series of weekly infusions, then transition to monthly maintenance. Others need a short course only. We'll build a plan based on your specific situation.
Do I need to be an established Meliora patient?
No. IV therapy is open to everyone — you don't need to be an established Meliora patient or complete a comprehensive assessment first. We review a brief health screening before any infusion. The one exception is the Iron Flow, which is available to established Meliora patients only.
How is this different from wellness IV bars?
Commercial IV bars hand out pre-bagged drips that sit ready-made on a shelf. At Meliora, every flow is mixed fresh the same day — and can be individualized to your specific deficiencies and clinical picture.
