✨ Why I Do Functional IV Therapy ✨
In 2021, our family’s world was shaken when my husband, at just 39, began experiencing a relentless tremor in his leg. After being dismissed in the ER, we finally found a provider who recognized it as young-onset Parkinson’s. While we were relieved to have an answer, her words gave us very little hope. She basically forecasted a future where my husband would barely be able to move and advised him to “take it easy” and accept his decendence Into neurodegenerative decline.
That didn’t sit right with us. My husband had been competing in Ironman triathlons—movement was his life—and we refused to accept a path defined by fear and limitation.
Thankfully, we later found a better doctor who not only gave us hope but also introduced the idea of nutrient replacement. From there, we started digging deeper on our own and discovered a more effective way to restore hydration, minerals, and vitamins: functional IV therapy.
Since then, nutrient IV therapy has been a game changer. People with Parkinson’s often struggle with hydration and fatigue, and symptoms worsen when the body is depleted. Supporting him through targeted IV wellness has made a real difference in his energy, recovery, and daily function.
I’ve also experienced my own transformation through functional wellness—losing 45 lbs, sleeping through the night, and feeling like myself again.
🌿 That’s why I’m so passionate about functional IV therapy today. It’s not just about managing symptoms—it’s about finding hope, filling in the gaps, and helping people live stronger, fuller lives no matter their challenges.
4 years later he’s still working full time, successfully raising 3 boys instilling grit, determination and resilience in them. He’s an attentive, devoted and supportive husband. He’s volunteering with CHS band boosters, exercising/ training and helping support others through The Parkinson’s Fight Club Community he created .
