IVtherapy.
Custom IV vitamin, mineral, and hydration drips — designed to support recovery, hydration, and day-to-day wellness. Administered under medical supervision in a quiet treatment space.
Hydration and nutrients, direct to circulation.
IV drip therapy is the delivery of fluids, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream through a small intravenous catheter. Because the contents bypass digestion, they reach circulation immediately and at concentrations that are not possible by mouth.
At Reviv we use IV therapy as a wellness tool — to support hydration, replete vitamins and minerals, or help patients feel their best around travel, athletic events, or recovery from illness. It is not a substitute for medical care, and we do not make claims that IV vitamin therapy treats specific diseases. The effects we look for are practical: hydration, energy, recovery, comfort.
Sessions take 30 to 60 minutes. You sit in a quiet treatment space, the drip runs, and you go on with your day. Effects of a single session typically last 24 to 72 hours.
Quiet space, careful screening.
IV therapy at Reviv Med Spa in Millbrae is provided under the medical oversight of our Medical Director Dr. Gayle Misle, MD — an anesthesiologist with extensive experience in vascular access and infusion safety. Our wellness protocols are designed thoughtfully rather than reflexively, screened against your individual health picture before any drip is recommended.
Every consultation begins with a screening — current medications, supplements, kidney and heart history, allergies, recent illness, pregnancy status. From there, we recommend a protocol based on your goal and your physiology.
We use custom Reviv-formulated IV protocols with combinations of saline, B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium, glutathione, and other minerals tuned to specific outcomes. The catheter goes in (a brief pinch — most patients rate it 2–3 out of 10), the infusion runs for 30 to 60 minutes, and you relax. Reviv is intentionally a calm space — we do not run drip "bars" with crowded rooms. You are in a quiet treatment chair under direct supervision the whole time.
Nine protocols, tuned to your goal.
In your consultation we will identify which protocol fits — based on your goals, current medications, and recent labs. Most patients come in for a single drip; some build a protocol over time.
Hydration drip
Saline plus electrolytes. Designed for travel, hangover, post-event recovery.
Immunity drip
Vitamin C plus zinc and B-complex during cold/flu season or post-illness.
Recovery drip
Magnesium, amino acids, and B-complex around athletic events or training blocks.
Glutathione drip
Antioxidant infusion used as part of a broader wellness routine, under physician guidance.
NAD+ drip
Coenzyme infusion for patients pursuing wellness adjuncts. Discussed honestly at consultation.
Myers cocktail
Multivitamin combination — magnesium, calcium, B-complex, and vitamin C — a long-standing IV protocol.
Beauty drip
B-complex and antioxidant blend for patients pairing IV with broader skin and wellness routines.
B12 + amino acid
Quick injection adjunct used in some patients to support energy and protein synthesis.
Custom protocol
Combinations tuned to your goals after screening, current medications, and recent labs.

- 01
IV therapy is a wellness adjunct, not a treatment for specific medical conditions. We do not make claims to treat or cure disease.
- 02
A licensed clinician places every catheter and monitors throughout the infusion. We are intentionally not a crowded drip "bar."
- 03
Effects of a single session typically last 24 to 72 hours. Pair with consistent sleep, nutrition, and hydration for the best follow-through.
- 04
We screen carefully for kidney, heart, thyroid, pregnancy, and electrolyte considerations — and decline or adjust the protocol when indicated.
From your first session, to ongoing wellness.
Brief health check, catheter placement by a licensed clinician (a 2 to 3 out of 10 pinch). You settle in to the treatment chair.
The drip runs while you read, work on a laptop, or simply rest. A clinician monitors throughout. The infusion itself is painless.
Hydration improvements are typically immediate. Subjective shifts in energy or mood vary by protocol, individual, and starting state.
Vitamin and mineral effects build over 24 to 72 hours. Patients pursuing wellness goals build cumulative effect through regular sessions.
Before your visit, and the days after.
- Hydrate Well
- Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment. Being well-hydrated can make it easier to insert the IV and help you get the most benefit from the treatment.
- Eat a Light Meal
- Have a light meal or snack about 1-2 hours before your appointment. This can help maintain your blood sugar levels and prevent any lightheadedness during the treatment.
- Avoid Alcohol and Caffeine
- Refrain from consuming alcohol and excessive caffeine for at least 24 hours before your appointment, as these can dehydrate your body and affect the effectiveness of the IV drip.
- Inform About Medications
- Provide a comprehensive list of any medications, supplements, or vitamins you are currently taking to your medical provider to avoid any potential interactions.
- Wear Comfortable Clothing
- Choose loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to your arms for the IV insertion. This will help ensure your comfort during the procedure.
- Relax and Stay Calm
- Try to relax and stay calm before your appointment. Stress and anxiety can make the IV insertion process more difficult.
- Medical History Disclosure
- Inform your medical provider of any relevant medical conditions, allergies, or past reactions to IV treatments to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.
- Stay Hydrated
- Continue to drink plenty of water after your treatment to help your body flush out toxins and absorb the nutrients from the IV drip.
- Eat a Balanced Meal
- Consume a nutritious meal post-treatment to support the replenishment of your body's nutrients and maintain your energy levels.
- Avoid Strenuous Activities
- Refrain from intense physical activities or heavy lifting for at least 24 hours after your treatment to allow your body to rest and recover.
- Monitor for Side Effects
- Some mild bruising, soreness, or swelling at the IV site is normal. However, if you experience severe pain, significant swelling, or signs of infection, contact your medical provider immediately.
- Avoid Alcohol
- Refrain from consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours post-treatment, as it can dehydrate your body and counteract the benefits of the IV drip.
- Keep the IV Site Clean
- Keep the IV insertion site clean and dry to prevent any potential infection. Follow any specific instructions provided by your medical provider for site care.
- Listen to Your Body
- Pay attention to how you feel after the treatment. If you experience unusual symptoms or feel unwell, contact your medical provider for advice.
You'll receive these IV drip instructions in writing before your visit and we review them with you in person. Questions during recovery? Call (650) 697-3339 — we answer same-day. See the aftercare hub for the universal recovery principles and when to call us.

What people say about Reviv.
…Most recently, they have a Vitamin IV drip at a promotional price of $150 which is a small price to pay to fight off illness (I want to stay as healthy as possible during this corona virus crisis). Highly recommend!!!
Always good results on botox and fillers. They listen to me and don't push anything, I also like that they suggest ways for me to save with coupons and memberships. Highly recommended.
I have been coming to Revivmed spa for 3 years now and every appointment is always treated in the most professional but nurturing way. I am always heard in my concerns and this spa always delivers! I couldn't be more happy with my results every time I leave there. thank you!

How long does an IV drip session take at Reviv?
Most drips take 30 to 60 minutes once the IV is placed. The actual placement is brief — a small pinch — and then you relax in a treatment chair while the infusion runs. We recommend setting aside about an hour total.
Will I feel a difference right away?
Many patients report feeling more hydrated and clear-headed within hours. Effects on energy, recovery, or wellness markers vary by individual and by protocol. IV therapy is best understood as a way to support hydration and nutrient repletion, not as a treatment for any specific medical condition.
How much does IV therapy cost?
Pricing starts at $150 per session and depends on the protocol. We will quote your specific drip at consultation. Reviv membership members receive 10% off IV therapy.
Does the IV hurt?
Most patients describe the catheter placement as a brief 2–3 out of 10 pinch. After placement, the infusion itself is painless — most people read, work on a laptop, or rest.
Is there downtime?
No. You can drive home and return to your day immediately. We recommend hydrating well for the rest of the day.
How often can I get IV therapy?
Frequency depends on the protocol and your individual health picture. Some patients come monthly for general wellness; others use single drips around travel, athletic events, or recovery from illness. We will recommend a cadence based on your goals at consultation.

IV therapy at Reviv is provided under the medical oversight of our Medical Director, Dr. Gayle Misle, MD — an anesthesiologist with extensive experience in vascular access and infusion safety. A licensed clinician places the catheter and monitors you throughout.
