But feel free to drop in if you’re in the neighborhood, want to check out our services or chat about your health. We’d love to meet you!
ARE YOUR IN-HOUSE COACHES, DOCTORS, AND NURSES QUALIFIED?
Yes! Our in-house coaches have degrees in nutrition and/or health coaching qualifications. Our medical staff are all licensed in Hong Kong.
DO I NEED TO BRING ANYTHING OR PREPARE FOR MY APPOINTMENT?
Generally you just need to bring yourself. For IV drips it’s best not to have an IV on an empty stomach so we recommend eating first. For consultations, you may wish to bring along relevant test results from your doctor.

We understand sometimes you may need to cancel or reschedule. Please give us as much advanced notice as possible by calling +852 3622 3452 or Whatsapping us on +852 6115 2094.
IV DRIPS
ARE THE IV DRIPS SAFE?
IV drips are widely used throughout the medical, wellness & professional athlete communities around the world. By design, they are safe for almost everyone. If it’s your first LifeHub IV, you’ll need to check in with our doctor to make sure IV drips are suitable for you and don’t conflict with any medication or health condition.
All IV drips are administered by a Registered Nurse.
WHAT’S IN AN IV DRIP?
Each IV contains a saline and multinutrient base with additional nutrients specific to each drip. Come visit us to find out which drip is most suitable for you.
DO THEY HURT?
Our registered nurses are well-practiced in administering IV drips. You’ll only feel a slight pinch and it’ll be over so quickly you’ll be wondering why you were worrying about it in the first place!
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME REQUIRED?
Your arm may feel a little heavy and occasionally there may be a slight bruise at the site. We recommend eating beforehand so you don’t feel lightheaded at all and don’t lift anything too heavy on that arm for 1 or 2 hours after the drip.
IS IT SAFE FOR PREGNANCY OR BREAST-FEEDING?
Unfortunately, the IV drip is not suitable for those who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
WHO IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE IV?
Unfortunately, those who are under 18, G6PD deficient, pregnant or breast-feeding cannot have an IV drip.
