Americans are more tired than ever before
If you’ve ever battled a bad cold or a case of the flu, you’ve probably experienced some level of fatigue, which is, by definition, a feeling of being overly tired and lacking energy. Fatigue is a common symptom of illnesses, like a cold or flu, and many other more serious medical conditions, too, like autoimmune disorders or diabetes.
However, if fatigue has been ongoing for long periods of time, and your doctor gives you a clean bill of health otherwise, then you may have chronic fatigue syndrome.
But, what is chronic fatigue syndrome, and what’s the treatment for it? While there are lots of treatment options, IV therapy is one of the more effective ones, and it can deliver a host of other great benefits to your body and your life at the same time!
What is chronic fatigue syndrome?
Chronic fatigue syndrome (sometimes abbreviated as CFS) is a disorder that causes extreme tiredness and fatigue for at least several months and can not be tied to any underlying medical issue. Oftentimes, the feeling of fatigue worsens with more physical or mental activity, and sleep does not usually help.
While anyone can feel fatigued in everyday life, especially when we’re sick or running on less sleep than we need, chronic fatigue syndrome is a long-term issue and can impact every aspect of day-to-day life, including further sleep issues, difficulty focusing, and even dizziness.
How does IV therapy help chronic fatigue syndrome?
IV therapy is the administration of fluids and nutrients intravenously, and it is the most efficient way to get precise doses of vitamins and minerals into the body. Without having to travel through the digestive tract, vitamins administered through an IV drip can be leveraged by your body immediately, providing immediate relief and benefits.
While IV therapy can be used in the treatment of a host of conditions, one of IV therapy’s biggest benefits is improving energy and boosting brain power, making it a very effective treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome and fatigue in general, no matter the underlying cause.
Outside of helping to boost energy, IV therapy can address underlying vitamin deficiencies that may be worsening chronic fatigue. Some common deficiencies that can lead to tiredness and fatigue include iron, Vitamin D, and Vitamin B12.
IV therapy can even help rehydrate your cells and muscles to fight any muscle aches and pains caused by chronic fatigue syndrome. It does this through the administration of a saline solution, which forces your tissues to intake more water from your bloodstream.
Other benefits of IV therapy
IV therapy is used in and out of hospitals to aid in the treatment of many disorders and illnesses and can be effective in preventative health care, too. Other than supporting energy levels, IV therapy has many benefits, including:
- Quicker rehydration
- Boosted immunity
- Slower aging
- Improved skin
- Faster muscle recovery
- Reduced inflammation

While there’s no single cause of chronic fatigue syndrome, the effects can make leading a healthy, normal life a challenge, so treating the disorder through IV therapy can help you overcome the fatigue and get back to normal life.
