IV & IM Vitamin Therapy Training
Two routes. One seriously comprehensive training course. 💧💉
Our combined IV & IM Vitamin Therapy Training brings together intravenous infusion therapy and intramuscular vitamin injections, giving you the knowledge, practical skills and safety awareness to build a broader vitamin and wellness treatment offering.
And this is an area we know VERY well. 🙌
Learners have travelled from across the UK and internationally, including Kentucky, Zambia, Nigeria, Rotterdam and Spain, to complete specialist IV and IM training with Michelle at The Studio in Manchester.
What Will You Actually Learn?
This isn’t just about learning where to put the needle. 😅
You’ll develop an understanding of the treatments, nutrients, client assessment and clinical considerations behind both IV and IM therapy.
You’ll cover:
- 💧 IV Vitamin Therapy: Understanding intravenous nutrient therapy and the principles behind IV infusion
- 💉 IM Vitamin & Wellness Injections: Understanding intramuscular administration and treatment protocols
- 🩸 Cannulation & IV Access: Identifying suitable veins, equipment selection, cannulation technique and securing IV access

Why Combine IV & IM Training?
Because not every client or treatment plan needs to look the same. 🙌
Understanding both routes gives you a broader knowledge of IV infusion therapy and IM vitamin and wellness injections, while helping you understand the important differences between the two.
You’ll learn the principles behind each route and how client suitability, administration, protocols and safety considerations differ.
