The new clinic is marketing itself to busy financiers and overworked tech entrepreneurs, saying that an intravenous drip could cure their hangovers, shake off jet lag and even stave off the signs of aging. Although it offers medical services, the clinic is outfitted more like a spa than a hospital.

Reviv isn’t the first company to offer so-called “vitamin drips,” but said what sets them apart is they deliver active medicinal ingredients such as anti-nausea and anti-inflammatory drugs straight into the bloodstream to combat the symptoms of flu, hay fever, sunburns and more. Treatments take about 30 minutes and cost from $100 to $275 a pop.
The company hopes to expand to various locations across Canada in the coming years.
