Iron infusion therapy is a medical procedure used to treat iron deficiency anemia. During the procedure, iron is delivered directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous line. This method ensures rapid absorption and can swiftly replenish iron levels in the body. Patients typically experience improved energy levels and overall well-being following treatment.
Why Get An Iron Infusion?
Iron is an easily blocked mineral and you have to have the right internal environment for it to be absorbed. For the average individual the infusion will last someone for 1-2 years.
Who Can Get An Infusion?
Here at Hydra Med, we offer iron infusion for anyone 16+ years old, and those who are pregnant.

How It Works
Don’t have benefits?
No benefits? No problem. If your labs have confirmed that your iron level is lower than usual follow these steps. Ask your family doctor to write a prescription for you, and have them call it into Pure Pharmacy in Fort Langley and ask for the prescription to be mailed to Hydra Med Spa. Once we receive your iron prescription in the mail, we will contact you to schedule an in-person iron infusion session.
Commonly Asked Questions
“What should I except during this appointment?” The iron solution is then slowly infused into your bloodstream over 3 – 4 hours. We encourage you to bring a book, headphones, etc to help you pass the time.
“Can you direct bill?” We offer direct billing with your insurance company if you book you initial consult with our Naturopath. If you got the prescription from another Naturopath, you will need to pay and submit.
