IV Hydration is not a fad of our time but instead a health care push and supplement to our bodies, minds, and physical wellbeing.

History of IV Hydration

IV hydration for wellbeing is not a new phenomenon. It has actually been around since 1600 (Millam, 1996). At this time the typical use of IV hydration was in hospital and health care settings (as they were then) on patients sick and needing care. IV hydration was either their entire treatment or a supplement to another treatment. In current times, IV hydration is used in hospitalizations 25% of the time as a care source for the patient (Zimmerman, 1989). IV hydration is a source of care that is used to replenish, rehydrate, restore, and medicate patients around the world. The fact that our society has now marketed it as a popular activity to do in the comfort of our homes or a comfy lounge room for symptoms ranging from tiredness, lethargy, sickness, hangover, allergies, dehydration, and illness is a tremendous success to the health care world in general. Today, the use of IV hydration is a popular industry service readily available in cities across the US which helps to reduce the need for hospitalizations, emergency room visits, and care needs that can be treated effectively by this method of care.
