Whether you’re gearing up for the Detroit Free Press Marathon or training for your own athletic goals, your body needs more than workouts alone — it needs the right fuel, recovery support, and hydration. That’s where our Performance Infusion comes in.


🧪 What’s Inside & How It Helps:

  • Vitamin C – Antioxidant support to reduce inflammation and strengthen immunity.

  • B12, B Complex, B5, B6, B7 – Energy production, nerve support, and reduced fatigue.

  • Amino Blend – Builds and repairs muscle, aids endurance recovery.

  • Arginine – Improves blood flow for stamina and performance.

  • Carnitine – Boosts fat metabolism and cellular energy.

  • Glutamine – Supports muscle recovery and immune defense.

  • Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) – Reduces oxidative stress and enhances cellular energy.

  • Glutathione – Master antioxidant to detoxify and speed recovery.

  • Extra IV Fluids – Restore hydration faster than water alone, improve endurance, and help muscles recover post-training.


⚡ When to Infuse:

  • Leading Up to an Event: Build stronger reserves, improve circulation, and top off hydration.

  • Right Before Competition: Optimize fluid balance, stamina, and nutrient status.

  • After the Event: Rehydrate deeply, accelerate muscle recovery, reduce soreness, and restore depleted nutrients.


✨ Why It Matters

Performance isn’t just about training harder — it’s about recovering smarter. IV therapy combines hydration, antioxidants, and targeted nutrients to help athletes at every level perform their best and bounce back stronger.


🏃‍♀️ Why IV Infusions for Athletes?

Running long distances pushes your body to its limits. Hydration, nutrient depletion, and oxidative stress can all affect how you perform — and how you recover. IV therapy delivers nutrients directly into your bloodstream for immediate absorption, giving your body exactly what it needs when it needs it most.
