If you need help getting through this winter, check out Vivolo’s memberships

It’s no question we don’t get enough nutrients during New England winters – between the lack of sun, wanting to eat less-nutritious comfort food, and being cooped up. Plus, this cold and flu season has been especially brutal. In fact, I am on day 10 of Flu A, writing this from my bed as I have “rebounded” after starting to feel better. If you’re someone like me who is too busy to wait out weeks of recovery, or just needs extra energy during these colder months, you may benefit from continued IV therapy.

Vivolo, Charlestown’s wellness club, offers monthly memberships, check them out!

Tier 1: 1 IV per month plus 10% off all other services and supplements (in-store and online). This is perfect for maintenance and monthly support.

Tier 2: 2 IVs per month plus 10% off all other services and supplements (in-store and online). This is designed for consistency and performance.

Tier 3: 4 IVs per month plus 10% off all other services and supplements (in-store and online). This will maximize your wellness support, and offers the best value.
