Many people in Staten Island come to us feeling tired, foggy, and slow to recover, even when they’re doing everything right. Sleep, diet, and exercise matter, but sometimes your body needs more targeted support. NAD+ therapy is one option we offer at M.F. Family Health NP P.C. that addresses energy and recovery at the cellular level.
Dr. Marina Fest, DNP, has built a practice around finding real answers for patients who feel stuck. Whether you’re dealing with low energy, poor focus, or slow physical recovery, understanding what NAD+ therapy is and how it works is a great first step before booking your session with us.
NAD+ Therapy: What It Is, Who It Helps, and What to Expect
NAD+ is a coenzyme that every cell in your body depends on to produce energy and repair itself. As we age, NAD+ levels naturally decline, and that decline often shows up as fatigue, mental fog, and slower recovery. The drop is gradual, which is why many people don’t connect the symptoms to a single cause.
When NAD+ is delivered through an IV drip, it enters your bloodstream directly without passing through digestion first. That direct delivery is what makes the IV route different from taking an oral supplement. Your cells get access to it faster, which is why patients tend to notice a difference more clearly with infusion therapy.
What NAD+ Therapy Supports
Patients who ask about NAD+ at our clinic are usually dealing with persistent fatigue that hasn’t improved with lifestyle changes alone. Others come in focused on mental clarity, that sharp, focused feeling that tends to fade under chronic stress or disrupted sleep. Both are common reasons people explore this therapy.
Physical recovery is another area where NAD+ therapy fits in well. People who train hard or push themselves regularly often find that their bodies take longer to recover than they used to. NAD+ therapy supports cellular recovery, which can help your body feel more resilient over time, without pushing past what your health picture actually supports.
How the Session Works at Our Clinic
At M.F. Family Health NP P.C., all IV therapy is medically supervised. Dr. Marina Fest, DNP, a graduate of NYU and Pace University with clinical experience in cardiology, nephrology, dialysis, and rehabilitation, oversees your care. Our clinic is IV drip ready, so you receive your infusion in a proper clinical setting with full attention to your comfort and safety.
NAD+ is one of several drips available alongside the Myers’ Cocktail, Immunity, Inner Beauty, and Reboot drips. Before your session, we talk through your health goals and current concerns so the right option is chosen for you. Nothing is one size fits all here, and that approach is central to how Dr. Fest runs this practice.
Other IV and IM Options We Offer
If you’re exploring IV therapy for the first time and aren’t sure NAD+ is the right starting point, we have other options on our menu. Our IM shots include B12, Vitamin D, Glutathione, MICC, and Tri Immune Boost. Each one targets something specific, so the choice depends on what your body needs most right now.
The Myers’ Cocktail is one of our most requested drips, delivering vitamins and minerals directly into the bloodstream for immune and energy support. Glutathione is often chosen for its antioxidant and skin health benefits. B12 shots are popular for metabolism and energy. We’ll walk you through the differences at your consultation so you leave with a clear plan.
How NAD+ Fits Into Your Overall Care
NAD+ therapy works best when it’s part of a bigger picture. Dr. Fest practices functional medicine, which means she looks at hormones, gut health, thyroid function, adrenal health, nutrition, and lifestyle together rather than treating each symptom separately. If something deeper is driving your fatigue or brain fog, we want to find it.
If you’re also managing weight concerns, hormonal imbalances, or other chronic symptoms, those conversations can happen at the same visit. We offer medical weight loss programs, testosterone therapy, allergy testing, and primary care alongside our IV therapy services. You don’t need to book five separate appointments to get a complete picture of your health.
