Vitamin & Antioxidant Infusions

Targeted vitamin and antioxidant formulations built for absorption the gut can’t match, used where oral intake or uptake is the limiting factor.

Comprehensive Medical Intake

Every therapy on this page starts with a full medical intake, or a referral from your physician — history, medications, and labs reviewed before anything is prescribed.

Bendavid leaf Our Approach

IV Therapy & Acupuncture, Directed by Your Physician

Naturopathic doctor administering an IV nutrient infusion at Bendavid Clinic, Burlington VT

Integrative wellness at Bendavid Clinic is prescribed, not sold. Nothing on this page is booked off a menu: each therapy is recommended by your physician after a comprehensive medical intake, or by referral, once your history, medications, and labs have been reviewed. Because we also provide primary care, the doctor ordering your infusion is the one reading your bloodwork. That also means we will tell you when a therapy isn’t the right answer — an IV, an acupuncture course, or neither.

Prescribed After a Medical Intake

No walk-up drips. Every infusion and treatment follows a comprehensive intake or a physician referral, with contraindications reviewed before anything is administered.

Naturopathic Doctors, Not Technicians

Your care is directed by licensed naturopathic doctors who look at labs, nutrition, sleep, and hormones alongside the therapy itself — not just what’s in the bag.

Vermont Rooted

Deeply connected to our local community, serving adults across the Burlington region.

Bendavid leaf What Our Patients Say

Dr. Jackie’s greatest strengths as a primary care provider lie in her natural abilities to listen, to empathize without judgement or condescension, and to enthusiastically and collaboratively design an action plan with her patients. While none of these qualities should make Dr. Jackie so unique as a care provider, it’s the unfortunate reality that many of us, especially female-identifying folks, live in. In just two visits, she was able to diagnose and create an accessible, approachable treatment plan for a number of deficiencies that other providers failed to notice. The experience has been not only validating, but healing both literally and figuratively. Burlington is BEYOND lucky to call her one of our own.

— P.T.

At the first appointment I instantly felt the warmth her office and whole self brings, it’s the most comfortable space and she offers the most inviting presence to be able to open up to and receive the kind of advice that is not only extremely helpful, but shows that she truly cares about her patients. I am so grateful I have found Dr. Jackie. Thank you so much for your inviting presence and everything you have taught me thus far!

— G.T.

I’ve had chronic health issues for years and Dr. Jackie is everything. Never felt so heard and seen and cared for by a primary care physician as much as I do with her! Thank you for truly caring about what you do and making the world a better place.

— H.P.

Call Us: 802-881-0424
What is integrative wellness care?
Integrative wellness care combines conventional medical assessment with therapies drawn from naturopathic and traditional practice, chosen for the individual patient rather than applied as a standard protocol. At Bendavid Clinic in Burlington, Vermont, that means intravenous nutrient therapy, medical iron infusions, craniosacral therapy, and acupuncture — each prescribed by a physician after a comprehensive medical intake, or by referral, rather than selected off a menu.
What is IV nutrient therapy?
IV nutrient therapy delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream through a small catheter placed in a vein, bypassing the digestive tract. It may support nutritional repletion, hydration, energy, and overall wellness depending on individual needs. It’s often used where absorption is the limiting factor, including alongside care for chronic fatigue, Lyme, and long COVID.
What is a Venofer iron infusion used for?
Venofer is a brand of iron sucrose given intravenously to treat iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia. It’s used when oral iron isn’t working or isn’t tolerated — common with heavy menstrual bleeding, GI absorption problems, and inflammatory conditions — and it restores iron stores faster than tablets. At Bendavid Clinic in Burlington, Vermont, iron infusions are given for lab-confirmed deficiency, with dosing based on your bloodwork.
What does craniosacral therapy do?
Craniosacral therapy is gentle, hands-on bodywork that uses light touch along the head, spine, and pelvis to encourage somatic release — the easing of physical tension held in the body. Practitioners work with the connection between the nervous system and musculoskeletal tension. It’s non-invasive and typically used for stress, tension, and body-mind balance rather than as a treatment for a specific diagnosis.
What does acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture uses very fine needles placed at specific points along the body’s energy pathways, a practice drawn from traditional Chinese medicine. It’s most commonly sought for pain, stress, sleep difficulty, headaches, and digestive complaints. At Bendavid Clinic in Burlington, Vermont, acupuncture is offered as part of a broader treatment plan rather than in isolation, and is recommended after your intake when it fits your goals.
Do I need a referral or an appointment before IV therapy?
Yes — these therapies are prescribed by your physician after a comprehensive medical intake, or by referral from your physician. Bendavid Clinic is not a walk-in drip bar: your history, medications, and relevant labs are reviewed before any infusion or treatment is recommended. If you’re a new patient, your first visit is that intake. Call our Burlington, Vermont office at 802-881-0424 to schedule it.
Does insurance cover IV therapy, iron infusions, or acupuncture?
It depends on the therapy. Wellness and hydration infusions are generally treated as elective and are typically self-pay. Medically indicated treatment, such as an iron infusion for a lab-confirmed deficiency, is more often billable, though coverage varies by plan and requires a documented diagnosis. Acupuncture coverage varies widely. Call our Burlington office at 802-881-0424 to confirm pricing and what your plan covers.
Are you accepting new patients?
Yes. Bendavid Clinic is currently accepting new patients and welcomes physician referrals. You can schedule online or call our Burlington, Vermont office at 802-881-0424 to get started. Your first visit is a comprehensive medical intake, which is what determines whether IV therapy, iron infusions, craniosacral therapy, or acupuncture is appropriate for you.
