Vitamin & Infusion Therapy
IV Therapy in Albuquerque, NM
IV Therapy is a wellness treatment that delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream for efficient absorption. By bypassing the digestive system, intravenous infusion therapy allows nutrients to be fully available to the body without the variability that can occur with oral supplements. This approach is commonly used to support hydration, immune health, energy production, and recovery.
At Pink Mountain Wellness in Albuquerque, NM, our IV Therapy services are designed with personalization and clinical oversight in mind. Each infusion is selected or customized based on your wellness goals, lifestyle demands, and overall health profile. From immune support IV blends to recovery focused formulations and oxygen therapy add ons, our goal is to provide balanced, medically guided care that supports long term wellness in a natural and sustainable way.
How IV Therapy Works
IV Therapy involves placing a small catheter into a vein, usually in the arm, to administer a controlled infusion of fluids and nutrients. Formulations may include vitamin C, B complex vitamins, amino acids, minerals, antioxidants such as glutathione, and NAD+ precursors depending on the selected blend. Because these nutrients enter directly into circulation, they are available for immediate use by the body.
Treatments are administered in a comfortable clinical setting under medical supervision. Infusions can be selected from targeted options such as Recovery and Longevity, Immunity, or Forever Young, or fully customized to meet your specific health objectives. Oxygen therapy may also be added to support overall wellness and recovery.
What IV Therapy Treats
Hydration status and nutrient levels influence many aspects of how you feel day to day. IV vitamin therapy is commonly used to support both preventive wellness and recovery needs.

What to Expect During Treatment
Appointments typically last between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the selected infusion. After a brief medical review, a small IV line is placed in the arm and your customized blend is administered while you relax comfortably. Many patients read, listen to music, or simply rest during the infusion.
There is little to no downtime following treatment, and most individuals return to normal activities immediately. Mild bruising, tenderness, or a cool sensation at the IV site may occur but generally resolves quickly.
When You Will See Results
Some patients notice a sense of improved hydration or energy within several hours of treatment. For others, changes develop gradually over the next 24 to 48 hours as the body utilizes the delivered nutrients.
The duration of results varies based on the formulation used, individual metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Many patients schedule periodic maintenance sessions to support consistent energy, immune resilience, and recovery throughout the year.
