Our IV Infusion Therapies
Cancer and its hospital therapies can take a significant toll on your body. Our IV infusion therapies are designed to support you through that — helping manage side effects, supporting your immune system and improving how you feel during and after your hospital care.
Every therapy plan is designed by Dr Saskia based on your diagnosis, your hospital pathway and how you’re responding. We work alongside your oncologist to make sure everything we recommend complements your NHS care.
IV delivery is used because it allows therapeutic compounds to reach your bloodstream at concentrations that oral supplements cannot achieve. This makes a meaningful difference for cancer patients whose bodies are already under strain

Our clinic on Tower Bridge Road is easily accessible by public transport and within walking distance of London Bridge station. We’ve designed the space to feel calm and private.
From the moment you arrive, our team is here to look after you. The clinic is a quiet, comfortable space where you can relax during your infusion.
We offer flexible scheduling around your hospital appointments. Booking is straightforward and our team will help you find times that work.
We begin with a free consultation to understand your diagnosis and hospital pathway. Dr Saskia and the medical team will then recommend the right therapies for your situation and provide clear pricing. There is no obligation to proceed.
What Is IV Infusion Therapy?
IV infusion therapy delivers vitamins, minerals and plant-derived compounds directly into your bloodstream through a drip. A thin, flexible tube (cannula) is inserted into a vein in your hand or arm, and the solution is fed through at a controlled rate.
Different compounds support your body in different ways — from boosting immune function and reducing inflammation to helping manage the side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Dr Saskia selects the right combination based on your individual needs.
All our IV infusions are administered by our specialist cancer care nursing team under full medical supervision. Sessions are comfortable, typically lasting one to two hours depending on the therapy.
“IV therapy allows us to deliver therapeutic compounds directly into the bloodstream at concentrations that oral supplements simply cannot achieve. For cancer patients whose bodies are under enormous strain, this can make a real difference to how they feel and how well they cope with their hospital care.”

Our IV Infusion Therapies
We offer a range of IV therapies tailored to your diagnosis and hospital pathway. Explore each therapy below:
Vitamin C IV therapy supports immune function and may help reduce the side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Research includes phase 2 clinical trials showing encouraging results in several cancer types.
Mistletoe is one of the most widely studied complementary therapies in cancer care. We use Helixor, a well-established European preparation, to support immune function and improve quality of life during your hospital care.
Helleborus niger is an emerging complementary therapy with preclinical research suggesting anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting properties. Dr Saskia recommends it where the evidence and your individual case support its use.
Sweet wormwood has an established safety profile from decades of antimalarial use. Its iron-dependent mechanism makes it of particular interest in cancer research, with early clinical trials showing promise.
Curcumin — the active compound in turmeric — has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. IV delivery achieves concentrations far beyond oral supplements, and early clinical research in breast cancer has shown encouraging results.
If you’re facing cancer surgery, our pre and post-operative IV programmes help prepare your body beforehand and support your recovery afterwards — strengthening immune function and providing essential nutrients.

IV Infusion Therapy — Common Questions
Every IV therapy plan at Wellbeing Medical Group is designed by Dr Saskia, a consultant in integrative oncology and one of three consultants at the Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine. She reviews your hospital reports, understands your diagnosis and recommends the therapies that are right for your specific situation.
You don’t need to decide on your own. Your free consultation with Dr Saskia is specifically designed to work this out. She reviews your diagnosis, your hospital pathway and how you’re responding, then recommends the therapies that are most appropriate. You’ll understand exactly why each therapy is being recommended before you agree to anything.
Yes. There are no fasting requirements. We actually advise you to eat a good meal before your session and stay well hydrated throughout the day. Most infusions take one to two hours, and you’re welcome to bring something to eat or drink with you.
Not usually. Dr Saskia will let you know if any testing is needed based on your individual case. If blood tests are required, we arrange everything in-house — you won’t need to visit another clinic.
Our Patients — Real Stories
Fiona
Diagnosis: Adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer
After one cycle of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, Fiona decided the side effects were too much. She came to us looking for a different way to support her body alongside her hospital care.
Dr Saskia reviewed her biopsy results, designed an integrative plan around her needs, and worked with her throughout. Her oncologist monitored her progress closely — and Fiona was able to maintain her quality of life and disease stability.
Graeme
Diagnosis: Adenocarcinoma Oesophagus
Graeme contacted us before he’d even had his final diagnosis confirmed.
He wanted to be prepared — to have a plan that worked alongside whatever his NHS team recommended.
Dr Saskia built an integrative care plan around his surgery and hospital pathway, focused on strengthening his body and managing side effects.
Isis
Diagnosis: Hodgkin Lymphoma
Isis was facing six months of chemotherapy for an aggressive diagnosis.
She came to us wanting to reduce side effects and give the chemotherapy the best chance of working. Dr Saskia designed an intensive protocol alongside her hospital care, and Isis committed fully.

Our IV therapies are designed to address these, supporting your body so you’re better placed to cope with and recover from your hospital care.
If you’re not sure where to start, book a free consultation with Dr Saskia. She’ll review your situation and recommend the right approach.

Every therapy is backed by published research, and Dr Saskia only recommends therapies where the evidence supports their use for your specific case.

Benefits Of Intravenous Infusion Therapy For Cancer Care
Intravenous infusion therapies can have many possible benefits for cancer patients, which our team will happily discuss with you before you decide. Depending on the intravenous infusion therapies you choose, you may receive health benefits such as:
Immune System Support
Elevating your immunity with an IV infusion may help you fight off other illnesses and reduce their impact on your overall health.
Apoptosis
Some therapies may encourage apoptosis (the death) of cancer cells, lowering the risk of tumours growing and cancer spreading.
Reduced treatment side effects
Cancer treatments can have many unpleasant side effects. With the help of IV infusion therapies, you may see symptoms like nausea, fatigue and poor appetite reduced.
Improved wellbeing and quality of life
By minimising cancer treatment’s side effects and boosting your immunity, you could see an overall improved quality of life, fostering better general wellbeing.
Enhanced nutrient levels
When you have cancer treatment, a common side effect is loss of appetite. As a result, you may have lower levels of nutrients like vitamin C. However, replenishing your levels with IV infusion therapies may boost your immune system and wellbeing.

Intravenous infusion therapies can have many possible benefits for cancer patients, which our team will happily discuss with you before you decide. Depending on the intravenous infusion therapies you choose, you may receive health benefits such as:
Immune System Support
IV therapies may help support your immune system during cancer care, when your body’s natural defences are under strain from chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Reduced Side Effects
Many patients find that IV therapies help manage symptoms like fatigue, nausea and loss of appetite that come with hospital cancer care.
Anti-cancer Properties
Some IV therapies have shown the ability to support the body’s natural processes for managing cancer cells, including encouraging apoptosis (programmed cell death) in preclinical and early clinical research.
Improved Quality of Life
By supporting your body through hospital care, IV therapies may help you feel stronger, more resilient and better able to cope with the demands of your cancer journey.
Essential Nutrient Support
Cancer and its hospital therapies can deplete essential nutrients. IV delivery ensures your body receives what it needs at therapeutic levels, bypassing any absorption limitations.
You can discover more about the benefits of intravenous infusion therapy in our patient stories.
Our IV therapies sit within a wider programme of supportive cancer care that includes personalised nutrition guidance, supplement safety reviews and emotional wellbeing support — all tailored to your individual treatment plan.
