Hydration plays a critical role in how the body functions each day. When electrolyte levels fall out of balance due to illness, physical activity, heat exposure, or everyday stress, the body may struggle to maintain energy, focus, and proper muscle function. At Prestige 2.0, located in Crown Point and Hammond, Indiana, Jay Joshi, MD, and the team offer intravenous electrolyte infusions to help restore hydration and support overall wellness.

Intravenous electrolyte infusions deliver essential minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium directly into the bloodstream. These minerals help regulate fluid balance, nerve signals, muscle movement, and heart function.
Unlike oral hydration alone, IV electrolyte therapy allows the body to receive fluids and nutrients more efficiently. This method can be especially helpful when dehydration or a nutrient imbalance makes it difficult for the body to absorb electrolytes through food or drinks. It also allows for more precise hydration support and faster replenishment when the body needs immediate hydration.
Electrolyte infusions are commonly used to support hydration during periods of physical strain, illness, travel, or intense activity. They may also be helpful for individuals experiencing symptoms related to dehydration, such as headaches, muscle cramps, fatigue, or dizziness.
Some patients use electrolyte therapy as part of a wellness routine to maintain balance and prevent performance decline. Others seek treatment to recover more quickly after exercise or long days of physical or mental exertion.
Electrolyte infusions are administered through a small IV placed in the arm by a trained medical professional. The infusion process allows fluids and electrolytes to enter the bloodstream gradually and comfortably.
Treatment sessions typically last 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the individual's plan. Patients can relax during the infusion while their bodies absorb hydration and nutrients in real time.
By restoring proper hydration and mineral balance, electrolyte infusions may help improve energy levels, support muscle recovery, reduce headaches, and promote better physical performance. Many patients also report feeling more alert, refreshed, and balanced following treatment.
Over time, consistent hydration support can help the body function more efficiently, improve endurance, and support overall wellness. Results vary by individual, but many patients notice benefits shortly after treatment and experience smoother recovery after physical exertion.
Intravenous electrolyte infusions provide fast, targeted hydration support—helping patients feel restored, recharged, and ready to take on daily demands.
