At Knox Wellness Experience in Knoxville, TN, our infusion services are our top treatments for restoring, reclaiming, and improving your overall health and wellness. If you’re looking to start your journey back to feeling at your best, our IV therapies may be an excellent solution for you. Our offerings include IV PTC (Phosphatidylcholine infusions), and ozone therapy. Read on to discover which of our IV treatments may be right for you.
What Are Infusion Services (IV Therapies)?
IV therapies are an excellent way to receive nutrients directly and quickly. Our infusion services are administered with the goal of improving your overall health and well-being. Infusions are a great way to absorb the healing properties of a variety of nutrients; these treatments work quickly and more efficiently than taking nutrients orally.
Because infusions are able to bypass the digestive tract, the critical vitamins, minerals, and nutrients are sent directly into the bloodstream, resulting in increased absorption and accelerated healing. The process is safe, effective, and convenient. A typical infusions session will take between 20 to 30 minutes to complete and offers a variety of health benefits depending on the type of IV therapy received.
Why Choose IV Therapies?
There are many reasons why your body may be lacking foundational biochemical support. Age, dietary restrictions, environmental toxins, stress, chronic health conditions, digestive issues, and inadequate nutrition from poor food choices can all impede the body’s ability to create long-lasting health. Our infusion services are the best way to replenish a chronically depleted reserve of nutrients.
Below are just some of the benefits you may see from infusion treatments:
- Balanced hormones
- Better visual health
- Decreased inflammation
- Detoxification
- Greater energy levels
- Greater levels of relaxation
- Improved immunity and resistance to infection
- Improved circulation
- Resilience to stress
- Smoother skin
IV PTC
Phosphatidylcholine (PTC) is a phospholipid (a substance containing phosphorus and essential fatty acids) that is found naturally in the body. It is a source of choline that plays an important metabolic and structural role in the function of all living cells. Though our bodies naturally contain PTC, it must be consumed through incorporating choline-rich foods such as egg yolks, mustard, and soybeans in our diets in order to sustain sufficient levels. However, absorbing PTC through IV may be preferable as the phospholipid will be more readily absorbed through the bloodstream than it would be orally.
There are many health-related concerns that can be alleviated through PTC infusions. Some conditions that respond well to IV PTC include:
- Aging
- ALS
- Alzheimer’s
- Autism spectrum disorders
- Cancer
- Cardiovascular disease
- Chemical poisoning
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Environmental illness
- Epilepsy
- Fertility
- Hepatitis C
- Huntington’s disease
- Hyperlipidemia
- Lyme disease
- Metabolic disorders
- Mold toxicity
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Neurotoxicity
- PANDAS
- Parkinson’s
- Pregnancy
- Stroke
Ozone Therapy
Ozone therapy is a medical treatment for energizing the bloodstream. While your body naturally receives oxygen through the lungs, a dose of ozone can breathe new life into oxygen-starved blood. Each ozone molecule contains three oxygen atoms, which can help oxygenate the blood and improve your overall health.
Ozone infusions are known to improve various skin conditions, including eczema and acne. They are also useful for treating inflammation in the joints and muscles and can improve mobility and lessen any pain or soreness. Studies have shown that ozone therapy can be effective for treating various immune disorders, breathing conditions, and diabetes. Some other potential benefits of receiving ozone treatments include:
- Stimulation of white blood cells
- Strengthening of the immune system
- Increased circulation
- Increased resistance against infections, bacteria, and fungi
- Improvement of varicose veins
- Purification of the bloodstream
- Prevention of shock
- Protection against cell mutation
- Protection from the formation of cancers
Combined Treatment with UBI
At Knox Wellness Experience, we also offer UBI (ultraviolet blood irradiation) treatments, which use ultraviolet light to weaken bacteria and viruses in the bloodstream. While you can choose to receive IV ozone treatments on their own, we recommend combining this therapy with UBI treatment to optimize your overall health. To learn more, ask us about pairing ozone and UBI treatments during your consultation.
Vitamin Infusions
Vitamin IV infusions are an excellent way for patients lacking specific vitamins and minerals to receive them directly and quickly. We administer these infusions with the goal of improving the overall health and well-being of our patients.
What are Vitamin Infusions?
Vitamin infusions are high-dose cocktails of different vitamins and minerals that are delivered to the body intravenously. While vitamins can be orally ingested, many individuals are not able to absorb them orally because of food sensitivities, indigestion or other digestive difficulties. Vitamin infusions are a great way to quickly absorb a variety of healing nutrients.
Typically, these infusions take about 20-30 minutes to complete and offer patients a variety of health benefits depending on the type and concentration of each vitamin used.
Vitamin C
Unfortunately, humans cannot create this Vitamin C on their own, so it needs to be ingested through the foods and beverages we consume. This infusion can help increase a patient’s resistance to infections and diseases, helping improve their overall wellness and quality of life. It has also been used to treat:
- Asthma
- Diabetes
- Hypertension
- Gout
- Glaucoma
- Seasonal allergies
Glutathione
Another powerful antioxidant, Glutathione infusions are another effective way to improve a patient’s overall health and resistance to diseases and infections. It can be used to boost the immune system, reduce inflammation and fight free radicals. This infusion also brings a beautiful glow to the skin, making it look more luminous, healthy, and youthful.
Myer’s Cocktail
The Myer’s Cocktail infusion increases the concentration of a variety of essential vitamins and minerals within the blood. It has been known to improve a wide variety of medical conditions and help patients both look and feel healthier. The Myer’s Cocktail has been used to treat:
- Acute asthma attacks
- Cardiovascular disease
- Chronic sinusitis
- Fatigue
- Fibromyalgia
- Migraines
- Seasonal allergies
- Upper respiratory tract infections
We also offer many other infusions.
