At Inside Health Clinic in Oakville, our IV therapy services provide an effective way to deliver nutrients, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream under the supervision of a licensed naturopathic doctor.
IV therapy can be a supportive option for individuals looking to enhance overall wellness, maintain energy, and encourage optimal nutrient balance — particularly when digestion or absorption may be less efficient.
Possible Benefits of IV Therapy
Patients often choose IV therapy to support:
IV (intravenous) therapy involves delivering nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a small vein, allowing for efficient absorption. Each infusion is customized to your health goals and guided by your naturopathic doctor’s assessment.
At Inside Health, IV therapy may also be used as part of an integrative care plan for individuals seeking additional support alongside other therapies.
For example, IV vitamin C (IVAA) is sometimes used under professional supervision as a supportive therapy for individuals managing chronic illness or undergoing other treatments.
This means taking a look at our extensive list of infusions available that best suits your needs. If you’re struggling to choose, a naturopath is on hand to give you some guidance.
A naturopathic doctor will review your health history and ensure that IV therapy is appropriate for you.

Alpha-lipoic acid, or ALA, is a naturally occurring fat- and water-soluble antioxidant. It is found naturally in many places, including red meat, spinach, broccoli, carrots, beets, and yeast. ALA can be taken orally or administered intravenously.
ALA is often used to relieve complications and symptoms of nerve damage caused by diabetes. It also naturally slows the aging process, helping to reduce the risk of many diseases caused by aging, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and dementia.
Vitamin B12 is essential to many functions, including the formation of red blood cells, replication of DNA, reduction of Homocysteine levels (which reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke), and the formation of myelin, which safeguards the body’s nerve cells. Your body needs B12 for energy production and a deficiency can cause fatigue and sluggishness.
B12 injections can facilitate weight loss, improve energy levels, support detoxification, improve the stress response, improve mood, and may treat a number of neurological conditions too.
A potent antioxidant, glutathione is one of the most important molecules in the body and can help to prevent disease and support overall health.
The benefits of glutathione therapy include preventing inflammation in the body, and anti-aging effects, and can benefit people who are receiving chemotherapy or who suffer from autoimmune conditions.
The Myers’ cocktail is an IV vitamin drip that contains magnesium, B vitamins, calcium, and vitamin C. It provides a boost to help you manage stress properly and may be helpful in the treatment of high blood pressure.
Those who suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia usually improve with weekly or fortnightly injections of the Myers cocktail.
MIC, or Methionine, Inositol, and Choline is an IV infusion that contains ‘fat attracting’ (lipotropic) amino acids. These amino acids support fat metabolism and toxin removal from the liver.
Combined with a B-complex and other nutrients, these MIC injections promote increased energy and may rid the body of fatty deposits more effecitvely. MIC is a natural weight loss solution and, when combined with vitamin B12, it is proven to help you lose weight and gain energy.
