    The hospital I'm having my surgery at does not charge for them (or just a copay for a typical dr appt). It's an hour away so if I go to my local hospital it's like a regular ER visit price wise.

Are you talking about hydration therapy for your skin at a spa, or the hydration station that helps you get over a hangover (there's a popular business in Atlanta)? Or are you talking about something else (a definite possibility)?

I am thinking about it! A few days after my surgery, when I was struggling to get fluids in, I found one locally.
I'm 3 weeks out now, and was thinning it might make me feel better. You can get them loaded with vitamins too.


I looked them up and I do have one close to me. I am 3 weeks post op and feel icky today. I have not had enough liquids. Do you have any ideas what they cost? Mama V?

Where are you located? I am in California and found one in Laguna Beach.

No. What is it?


I got great hydration therapy in the hospital as I was hospitalized for 3 days with an IV, but then it was harder to get fluids in when I first returned home. Four weeks post surgery I went to a naturopathic doctor and got IV hydration therapy and I've been back on track with my fluids ever since. I'm glad I did it but it cost me $145.

If you start to become dehydrated you can go to a hospital with a "hydration station" and get an IV of fluids.
