Headaches & Hydration:

At Vivere Drip Therapy, many clients come to us seeking fast, effective relief from chronic or acute headaches. Whether it’s migraines, tension headaches, or dehydration-induced pain, IV therapy can offer rapid improvement — backed by clinical evidence.

Why Headaches Happen

Headaches can be caused by a variety of triggers:

Dehydration
Electrolyte imbalance
Stress and tension
Vitamin deficiencies (especially B-complex, magnesium)
Hormonal changes
Inflammation or oxidative stress

Often, people reach for over-the-counter meds — but those don’t address the underlying imbalances that may be driving your symptoms.

IV Therapy for Headache Relief — What the Research Shows

IV therapy delivers hydration, electrolytes, and essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream — bypassing the GI system and working quickly.

Clinical Evidence:

B-complex vitamins (especially B2, B6, and B12) have been linked to neurological health and reduction in migraine frequency.
