NAD Therapy
NAD Therapy in Chicago, IL
At the cellular level, energy is everything, and NAD Therapy is one of the most essential molecules your body relies on to produce it. At Therahaus Wellness Medspa in South Loop, Chicago, NAD therapy gives your body direct access to this vital coenzyme, supporting cellular energy production, recovery, and overall vitality in a way that few other wellness treatments can match.
NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body, playing a central role in energy metabolism, DNA repair, and overall cellular function. As we age or experience high levels of stress, illness, or exertion, natural NAD levels can decline, which may contribute to fatigue, brain fog, and slower recovery. At Therahaus, we offer NAD Therapy through both intramuscular or subcutaneous injections and longer IV infusions, allowing your provider to recommend the delivery method and dose that best fits your wellness goals and schedule.

How NAD Therapy Works
NAD Therapy delivered through injection or IV infusion bypasses the digestive system entirely, allowing the coenzyme to become available to your cells more directly and efficiently than oral supplementation can achieve. Once in the bloodstream, NAD supports the mitochondria, the energy-producing structures within your cells, helping to fuel the metabolic processes responsible for everyday energy, focus, and cellular repair. Because NAD infusions deliver a more sustained and substantial dose over time, they are typically administered over a longer session, while injections offer a quicker option for patients seeking more frequent, smaller doses.
Your provider reviews your health history, current symptoms, and wellness goals to determine whether NAD injections, IV infusion, or a combination approach best fits your needs.
For injections, the injection site is cleansed and prepared. For IV infusions, a small intravenous catheter is placed, typically in the arm, in a quick and comfortable process.
NAD injections are administered quickly, in under five minutes. NAD IV infusions are administered at a controlled rate and typically last between 2 to 4 hours, during which you can relax, rest, or work.
Many patients report improved mental clarity, energy, and overall well-being in the hours and days following treatment, with benefits that can continue to build with regular sessions

NAD Aftercare: What to Know
NAD therapy requires minimal aftercare. Some patients experience mild flushing, warmth, or a brief sensation of pressure during IV infusions, which typically resolves as the infusion rate is adjusted. Most patients return to their normal activities immediately following either an injection or an infusion.
Any Questions?
An injection is typically faster and may cause localized soreness or bruising. An IV infusion delivers NAD Therapy through the bloodstream over a longer period and may be adjusted for comfort.
Some patients experience nausea, flushing, abdominal tightness, chest tightness, headache, or lightheadedness when infused quickly, so the infusion rate may be slowed.
Therahaus offers 2-hour and 4-hour NAD infusion options. Your provider will recommend the option that best fits your plan and tolerance.
Some patients report feeling changes the same day or within a few days, while others may not notice a significant change. Results vary and cannot be guaranteed.
