Train hard. Refill at home.
Long run, heavy lift day or a race weekend? A registered nurse brings fluids, minerals and amino acids to you, so you can recover on your own couch.
$32945–60 minutes · travel includedThe Athletic Recovery IV is a liter of fluids with B-complex, vitamin C, magnesium, taurine and amino acids. It costs $329 with travel included inside our Los Angeles service area. A registered nurse comes to your home, gym or hotel, and the drip takes about 45 to 60 minutes. Many clients book it after races, tournaments and hard training blocks to rehydrate and top up nutrients.
What’s in the Athletic Recovery drip
Your provider sets the final formula for you. A typical Athletic Recovery bag includes:
IV fluids
A liter of fluid can help replace the water and salt you lose through heavy sweat.
Amino acids
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, which your muscles use for repair after training.
Taurine
Taurine is an amino-acid-like nutrient found in muscle tissue and in many sports drinks.
Magnesium
Magnesium is a mineral that supports normal muscle and nerve function, and you lose some in sweat.
B-complex
B vitamins help your body turn carbs, fat and protein into usable energy.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is an antioxidant that supports collagen, and the provider sets the final formula.

What goes into the recovery bag and why
Hard training costs you three things: water, minerals and fuel. This drip is built around those. The liter of fluid goes to work on the water you sweated out. Magnesium is one of the minerals lost in sweat. B vitamins are part of how your body turns food into energy.
Amino acids and taurine round it out. Aminos are what protein is made of, and your muscles draw on them after a tough session. Taurine is found naturally in muscle. Vitamin C supports collagen, a key part of tendons and skin. None of this replaces food, sleep and rest days. It is an extra, and results are different for everyone.
Timing your drip around training and race day
Most clients book within a day or so after the big effort, once they are home, showered and fed. Eat something first. A drip on an empty stomach can leave you lightheaded. If your event is out of town and you are flying back to Los Angeles, the evening you land or the next morning both work well.
Some athletes like a drip a day or two before an event. If that is you, try it during a normal training week first, never for the first time on race week. One more thing for tested athletes: many anti-doping rules limit IV infusions, even of plain fluids and vitamins. Check with your sport’s governing body before you book.
Who it suits, and who should talk to a doctor first
This drip is made for healthy, active adults: runners, lifters, cyclists, fighters, dancers, weekend hikers and anyone whose job is physical. You do not need to be a pro. If you trained hard and feel flat and dry, you are who we built it for. Teams and run clubs can book together and get group pricing.
Some problems after exercise are not for a wellness drip. Dark, cola-colored urine, severe muscle pain or swelling, chest pain, fainting or confusion after a workout need emergency care, so call 911. Tell the provider about heart failure, kidney disease or very high blood pressure. Pregnant athletes need an OK from their OB. The provider can change the formula or turn the order down.
Should I get an IV before or after a race?
Most people book after, to rehydrate once the effort is done. A drip a day or two before is also common. Avoid trying your first IV right before a big event, since you do not yet know how you will feel. Ask the provider what fits your plan.
What are the amino acids in the recovery drip?
Amino acids are the small units that make up protein. The provider chooses the exact blend and dose for your bag, and the pharmacy lists everything on the label. If you want to know the specific aminos before your visit, ask on your video call and the provider will go over it.
Are IV drips allowed for drug-tested athletes?
Often not without approval. Many anti-doping programs restrict IV infusions above a small volume, no matter what is in the bag. If you compete in a tested sport, check your governing body’s rules or ask about an exemption before booking. We can’t advise on your sport’s rules.
Can you come to a gym or a race hotel?
Yes. We go to homes, hotels, gyms, studios and offices in our Los Angeles service area, and travel is included. The nurse needs a clean place for you to sit and the OK from the site. For a team or club, ask about group pricing, which starts at 10% off for 2 to 4 people.
Is the recovery IV good for muscle cramps?
Many clients book it after cramping in a long event, because it contains fluids and magnesium. We can’t promise it will stop or prevent cramps. Cramps have many causes. If yours are frequent, severe or come with swelling or dark urine, see a doctor.
