IV Therapy in Saint Barthélemy
IV therapy in St Barth is increasingly the first call after a long-haul flight, a heavy night out, or a busy day under the Caribbean sun. A certified nurse comes to your villa, hotel room or yacht, sets up a comfortable drip, and you feel the effects within 30 to 60 minutes. No clinic visit, no waiting room, no medical fluorescent lights.
The service is built around wellness, performance, and recovery. After NYE, after Christmas Eve, after a 6am arrival from the East Coast, or simply on a Tuesday before a big charter day: IV therapy is one of the most-requested in-villa health services on the island.
Most-Requested Formulas
- Hydration : saline solution with electrolytes and B-complex. The classic after a long flight, a sunny beach day, or two glasses too many the night before.
- Hangover recovery : high-dose B-complex, anti-nausea, magnesium, hydration. Most-requested formula after big nights in Gustavia.
- Jet-lag & energy : B12, amino acids, taurine, magnesium. Common request for guests arriving from Europe or the West Coast.
- Immune boost : high-dose vitamin C, zinc, glutathione. Booked during peak season when guests want to stay healthy for a full holiday week.
- Beauty & glow : glutathione, biotin, vitamin C, B-complex. The "looking great in the photos" combo, often booked the morning of a special evening or photo shoot.
- Performance recovery : amino acids, magnesium, B12, electrolytes. For guests who train, run, or push hard on the water and want to bounce back faster.
- Custom : formulas adjusted by the medical staff based on your needs, supplements list, and goals for the stay.
What a Session Looks Like
A certified nurse arrives at your villa, your hotel suite, or your yacht at the agreed time, with all sealed pharmacy-grade supplies. After a short medical screening (or skipping straight to setup if you are a returning client), the IV line is placed and you relax on your terrace, by the pool, or in your stateroom while the bag drips over 30 to 60 minutes. The nurse stays the full session. Once it is done, equipment is packed out cleanly, no clean-up on your side.
Most guests pair an IV with a spa treatment or a yoga session the same morning, or follow it with a quiet lunch from the private chef. The full recovery and reset takes about half a morning.
