Pharmaceutical-grade infusions
Bypass the gut, feel it faster
Many adults in Auburndale and across Polk County feel persistently drained, run down after travel or workouts, or stuck in a cycle of supplements that never quite move the needle. Oral vitamins lose potency in the digestive tract, and chronic stress, GI issues, and dehydration all reduce how much actually reaches your cells. The result is brain fog, sluggish recovery, weaker immunity, and skin that looks tired no matter how disciplined your routine is.
IV therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream at 100 percent bioavailability. At Evolving Mind and Body, Erin Garza pairs targeted lab insight with pharmaceutical-grade compounds to address what your body is actually missing. From a quick Hydration drip after a Florida heatwave to high-dose NAD plus for cognitive performance, every infusion is built around your goals. Pair IV therapy with our peptide therapy or hormone replacement therapy for a complete wellness plan.
The science of direct delivery
IV (intravenous) therapy is the controlled infusion of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, and fluids directly into a vein. Because the formulation bypasses the digestive system, every dose reaches your bloodstream at 100 percent bioavailability, compared to 20 to 50 percent for most oral supplements. According to the National Institutes of Health, intravenous administration is the most reliable route when rapid restoration of nutrient status is the goal.
Each infusion is custom-compounded by a licensed pharmacy and administered by Erin Garza, APRN, FNP-C in a relaxing private suite. Drips on our menu include the classic Myers Cocktail, Hydration and Recovery, Immune Boost with high-dose Vitamin C, Energy and B-Complex, NAD plus for anti-aging and cognitive performance, Glutathione (the master antioxidant), Beauty (biotin and glutathione), Athletic Performance and Recovery, and Hangover Recovery. Per Cleveland Clinic, NAD plus is a critical coenzyme for cellular energy production and DNA repair, and clinical research supports IV delivery for measurable mood, focus, and metabolic benefits.

Personalized to your health
IV therapy is best for adults who feel depleted despite a healthy routine, athletes seeking faster recovery, and patients pursuing healthy aging or cognitive performance. Per the National Institutes of Health, IV nutrient therapy is generally well tolerated when ordered and supervised by a licensed clinician after appropriate medical screening.

IV therapy administered by a licensed nurse practitioner is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are mild and short-lived: bruising or tenderness at the IV site, a temporary cooling sensation as fluids enter the vein, and a vitamin or mineral taste in the mouth (especially with B vitamins or magnesium). Some patients feel light-headed if they arrive dehydrated, which resolves once the infusion is underway.
Less common reactions include flushing during high-dose Vitamin C or glutathione, mild nausea with NAD plus that improves when the rate is slowed, and rare allergic responses. Per FDA guidance and NIH reviews, serious complications such as infection, vein irritation, electrolyte imbalance, or fluid overload are uncommon when therapy is delivered by trained clinicians using sterile pharmaceutical-grade compounds, which is exactly the standard at Evolving Mind and Body.
Erin Garza screens every patient for kidney function, cardiac history, allergies, and pregnancy status before any infusion. Tell her about all prescriptions, supplements, and recent illnesses. Stop your drip and contact us right away if you experience chest tightness, shortness of breath, severe rash, or persistent vomiting.
IV therapy at Evolving Mind and Body is priced per drip with no hidden fees. Standard Florida pricing ranges from $125 to $300 per session, with NAD plus protocols ranging from $400 to $800 depending on dose. Membership packages and bundled series lower the per-drip cost for patients who infuse monthly.

Your questions, answered
Our menu includes Myers Cocktail, Hydration and Recovery, Immune Boost (high-dose Vitamin C), Energy and B-Complex, NAD plus, Glutathione, Beauty (biotin and glutathione), Athletic Performance and Recovery, and Hangover Recovery. Erin Garza customizes any drip to your needs.
Most drips run 30 to 60 minutes start to finish. Higher-dose NAD plus infusions take 60 to 120 minutes because the rate is slowed for comfort. You will be in our private suite, in a heated recliner, the entire time.
Most wellness patients infuse every 2 to 4 weeks. Athletes and patients on NAD plus protocols often start weekly for the first month, then taper to monthly maintenance. Erin builds your cadence around your goals and labs.
Patients report higher energy, faster recovery, improved hydration, stronger immunity, better skin and hair, sharper focus, and reduced hangover symptoms. NAD plus offers added cellular and cognitive benefits that build over weeks.
Adults with persistent fatigue, athletes, frequent travelers, busy professionals, and patients pursuing healthy aging are excellent candidates. Erin screens kidney, heart, and allergy status during your consultation to confirm safety.
Most side effects are mild: bruising at the IV site, a cool sensation as fluids enter, or a vitamin taste in your mouth. Serious reactions are rare when infusions are administered by a licensed nurse practitioner like Erin Garza.
