Common Questions About Our
Pickering Clinic

IV vitamin therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive tract and achieving near 100% bioavailability compared to roughly 20 to 50% for most oral supplements. That makes it effective for correcting documented deficiencies, supporting recovery from dehydration or fatigue, and topping up nutrients in patients with absorption issues. It is not a substitute for a balanced diet or medical treatment of an underlying condition. Victoria Rose Cyr, RN BScN, reviews your health history, current medications, and goals at every consultation before recommending a protocol. At Victoria Rose Aesthetics in Pickering, every IV bag is administered by Victoria under RN-clinical protocols using sterile, single-use lines.

Effects from a single IV vitamin session typically last 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the formula, your baseline nutrient status, hydration, sleep, and activity level. Patients addressing acute fatigue, jet lag, or post-illness recovery often feel improvement within 12 to 24 hours that holds steady for the first week. Patients on a maintenance plan for chronic depletion usually space sessions every 2 to 4 weeks for cumulative benefit. The infusion itself takes 30 to 60 minutes in a private treatment room. A VRA injector administers every IV at Victoria Rose Aesthetics in Pickering and will set a cadence at your consultation that reflects your bloodwork, symptoms, and recovery goals.

IV vitamin therapy at Victoria Rose Aesthetics in Pickering is priced per formula, with most single sessions falling in the $175 to $325 CAD range depending on the blend. Standard hydration and Myers' cocktail style infusions sit at the lower end. Higher-dose immune, recovery, NAD+, and glutathione-enriched formulas sit at the upper end because of ingredient cost and longer infusion time. Vitamin IM shots are a lower-cost alternative for single-nutrient top-ups. Package pricing is available for patients on a maintenance plan, and current promotions are listed on our Promotions page. Victoria Rose Cyr, RN BScN, will confirm the exact CAD price for your recommended protocol at consultation before any infusion is scheduled.

Most patients can safely receive IV vitamin therapy every 2 to 4 weeks, though the right cadence depends on the formula, your goals, and your current nutrient status. Standard hydration and Myers' cocktail infusions can be done weekly during acute recovery without concern. Higher-dose protocols like NAD+ or glutathione are typically spaced every 2 to 6 weeks to allow the body to integrate the nutrients. Patients addressing chronic deficiencies often start with a loading phase of 4 to 6 weekly sessions, then move to monthly maintenance. Victoria Rose Cyr, RN BScN, reviews your bloodwork, symptoms, and any medications at consultation and sets a frequency that is clinically appropriate rather than maximum.
