About Us
Our Story:
As a business owner with a passion for discovering innovative trends, I’m always on the lookout for new opportunities. One day, while enjoying a rare moment of downtime and watching “Desperate Housewives,” I was intrigued by the characters receiving Vitamin IV therapies. It hit me – this kind of service was missing in Ireland, especially in Cork.
Driven by curiosity, I reached out to a close friend who was knowledgeable in the medical and wellness communities. Over several weeks, we explored the idea in depth, discussing the potential and the challenges. Although we highlighted the complexities involved, our excitement grew with each conversation. We realised this was an opportunity worth pursuing, and that’s how The IV Lounge was born – from a spark of inspiration to a dedicated wellness hub.
On a personal note, as someone who loves tea and doesn’t drink much water, I often found myself struggling with dehydration. Discovering the benefits of IV hydration therapy was transformative – it truly changed how I felt today. This personal experience ignited my passion to share the benefits of IV therapy, alongside our other treatments, with others.
