Whether you’re still recovering from the holidays or you’re a jet-setter with jet lag, you may need a rejuvenating pick-me-up. City Editor Brook here, and the personalized IV Hydration Drip at Hydrate Medical left me feeling revitalized and ready to take on the world. Read along to find out how you can Try This.

What we tried:

I arrived at Hydration Medical Asheville (190 Hendersonville Rd.) on a Saturday morning in February. I was already fighting a cold, and — after bidding adieu to Dry January the night before — I wasn’t feeling great. Their staff helped me choose the Myer’s Cocktail ($119) with antioxidant glutathione added. The cocktail’s magnesium, zinc, B vitamins, and Vitamin C boosted my immune system, and the added glutathione supported my liver.

I was set up in a cozy, private room for one. After having my blood pressure checked, my IV drip began. Pro tip: There are multiple rooms + some can accommodate up to seven people. The dim lights and soft music made the experience super relaxing, and I left feeling significantly better than I did when I arrived.

The consultation with staff. Hydrate Medical is staffed by medical professionals and licensed nurses, so they know their stuff. While I was preparing to leave, I overheard a bit of the consultations and was impressed by how well the staff were able to make personalized recommendations for each client.

What we’re still talking about:

How quickly it works and how long-lasting the effects are. I noticed I started feeling noticeably better ~10 minutes after my drip began. I felt more energetic and less mentally + physically fatigued. And that feeling of wellness lasted for days. Since none of us have time to feel bad, I was super impressed. Also super cool? New customers can enjoy their very first drip for $89.

How you can experience this:

Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are recommended. Call (828) 365-6044 to book an appointment. You can also book online.
