White Pearl Medical Spa supports the health of our friends and neighbors from Des Plaines, Illinois, and across the northwest suburbs with IV therapy. This is not a single solution but a category of beneficial and personalized therapeutic formulations that may be introduced intravenously. They can be delivered directly to your bloodstream for maximum potency and a fast-acting answer to many health concerns that leave you feeling less than your best. The Myers Cocktail Infusion is a particularly versatile and popular IV therapy.Â
First developed by Dr. John Myers in the 1970s, this infusion is packed with high concentrations of vitamin C, B vitamins, magnesium, and calcium combined with normal saline (sterile salt solution). The cocktail may be modified to your individual needs. That way, we can deliver exactly what your body craves.
The non-modified cocktail generally includes B-complex vitamins, vitamin B12, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and glutathione. These vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants serve vital functions for our bodies—from strengthening bones to supporting natural defenses against sickness. We can introduce vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), vitamin B5 (dexpanthenol), and other powerhouse substances for a custom cocktail that meets your body’s unique needs.
One of the many benefits of this infusion is its ability to help so many different types of people. When introduced slowly through a needle inserted into a vein (typically in your arm), this cocktail has helped our patients feel better by boosting their energy levels and moods. Athletes appreciate the performance boost that the Myers infusion gives them. We’ve also seen how it helps with hangover symptoms and how our patients see a surge in their immune function. So they can better fend off frequent and severe colds, flu, and other sicknesses.Â
If you have been taking supplements and don’t feel any different, it could be due to the low bioavailability associated with oral products. These products have to go through your gut. The effectiveness of the ingredients within them is naturally eroded and can be further degraded when taken with food. By delivering the nutrients your body needs through an IV, we support high bioavailability – the maximum effectiveness of this restorative infusion. Since the digestive system is bypassed and your nutrient needs enter the bloodstream immediately, they are absorbed quickly, and you start to experience improvements rapidly. Unlike supplements, you don’t have to wait months for the effects to “kick in.”Â
Every aspect of IV therapy is customized. You may receive your infusion once a week to start with treatments tapering off after you reach the maintenance stage. Of course, that depends on how your body responds to treatment. Request a consultation to learn more about what the Myers Cocktail and our menu of other IV therapies can do for you.
