What Is NAD IV Therapy and How Does It Work?

In the world of advanced wellness and aesthetic treatments, NAD IV therapy has gained attention for its potential benefits in energy, mental clarity, and healthy ageing. If you’re considering this treatment, understanding how it works is the first step to making an informed decision.

At Iluminara Aesthetics, we offer professionally administered sessions as part of our holistic approach to wellbeing and longevity. This guide explains how the treatment works in the body and what you can expect.

What Is NAD?

NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. It is a naturally occurring coenzyme found in every cell, playing a critical role in energy production, DNA repair, and overall cellular function.

Levels of NAD naturally decline with age, and lifestyle factors such as stress, poor sleep, alcohol consumption, and chronic fatigue can also reduce its availability. Low NAD levels may be associated with fatigue, brain fog, slower recovery, and signs of ageing.

This is where IV administration comes into play.

How It Works

The treatment delivers NAD directly into the bloodstream via an intravenous drip, bypassing the digestive system for higher absorption. By increasing NAD levels in the body, cells can access and use it more efficiently, which may support energy, cognitive function, and overall vitality.

At Iluminara Aesthetics, treatments are administered in a calm, clinical environment by trained professionals to ensure comfort and safety.

Cellular Benefits

Once in the bloodstream, NAD supports several key processes, including:

  • Energy production in the mitochondria
  • Brain and nervous system function
  • Cellular repair and regeneration
  • Healthy metabolic activity

By supporting these processes, the treatment helps the body perform more efficiently.

Potential Benefits

While individual results vary, clients often choose this therapy for:

  • Increased energy and reduced fatigue
  • Enhanced mental clarity
  • Support for healthy ageing
  • Faster recovery from stress
  • Improved overall wellbeing

Each client is assessed individually to determine suitability.

What to Expect During a Session

A typical session begins with a consultation. If approved, an IV line is placed and the infusion is administered slowly over several hours, depending on dosage and plan.

Sessions are slower than standard vitamin drips to improve comfort and minimise side effects. Most clients relax, read, or listen to music during the treatment.

Safety

When administered by professionals, the therapy is generally considered safe. Mild side effects such as nausea, flushing, or chest pressure may occur but typically resolve quickly. Monitoring is maintained throughout every session.

Cost in Australia

Pricing varies based on dosage, session length, and whether the treatment is part of a broader wellness plan. While considered a premium treatment, many clients choose it for superior absorption and targeted delivery compared to oral supplements.

Who May Benefit

This therapy may be suitable for those who:

  • Experience ongoing fatigue
  • Feel mentally foggy
  • Lead high-stress lifestyles
  • Wish to support healthy ageing
  • Seek advanced wellness treatments

A consultation ensures it aligns with individual health needs.
