Our story

Restoring health.
Transforming lives.

We exist to restore health and transform lives through Functional Medicine, advanced regenerative therapies, and genuinely personalized care. Driip IV is led by Drs. Chris and Shamanie Frykman, D.C., and medically directed by Dr. Josiah Nelson, MD.

Why we started

Have you ever had an illness interrupt your life?

We have.

Twelve years ago, Driip co-founder Dr. Shamanie, D.C. was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer.

In an instant, life changed.

Suddenly, health wasn’t something to take for granted. It became the priority.

We learned firsthand how overwhelming it can feel when illness interrupts your plans, your family, your work — and the life you thought you were going to be living.

But we also discovered something powerful:

Hope changes everything.

Hope gives you the courage to keep looking for answers.

Hope reminds you that your diagnosis does not have to become your identity.

And hope helps you believe that feeling better — and getting back to your life — is possible.

That experience became the heart behind Driip IV.

What we believe

We believe the body is designed to heal.

Our mission is to create an environment where people feel supported, empowered, and hopeful about their health.

We combine innovative wellness therapies with a functional, whole-person approach designed to support the body’s natural healing and recovery processes.

Because sometimes your body needs support.

Sometimes you need a different approach.

And sometimes you simply need someone in your corner who believes there is more you can do.

At Driip, we continue to explore advanced therapies, emerging wellness technologies, and personalized strategies that help our patients pursue greater energy, resilience, recovery, and vitality.

Our promise

This is personal to us.

We don’t want Driip to feel like another clinic.

We want it to feel like a place where you walk in feeling overwhelmed, and walk out feeling like you finally have a plan.

A place where you’re heard.

A place where you’re cared for.

A place where hope lives.

Because life is too short to spend it feeling sick, exhausted, or like you’re missing out on the people and experiences you love.

Your health affects everything. And when you feel better, you can get back to doing what you were put here to do.

We’re here to help you find your way back.

“Driip is always professional and compassionate.”

Our services are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

After your visit

How will I feel after my IV drip?

Most people leave feeling refreshed, hydrated, and energized. Because IV nutrients bypass the digestive system and go directly into the bloodstream, many patients notice benefits the same day.

Your experience will depend on your health status, hydration level, sleep, nutrition, and the type of therapy you receive. Some patients feel an immediate boost in energy, mental clarity, and overall well-being, while others notice gradual improvements.

After advanced therapies such as EBO2, ozone, NAD+, or functional medicine treatments, it’s also normal to feel tired or need extra rest as your body responds and recovers. Drinking plenty of water, eating nourishing foods, and getting adequate sleep will help.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions.

Every drip is Functional Medicine led and administered by a licensed clinician, using strict aseptic technique. We review your health history first and tailor care to you.

We always start with a complimentary consult so we understand your goals and confirm a therapy is a good fit. For advanced therapies, a more in-depth medical consult is part of the process.

Most healthy adults are good candidates, but it isn’t right for everyone — which is exactly why we review your history first. Our team will let you know honestly if something isn’t a fit.

Experiences vary from person to person. Many people come in to support hydration, energy, or recovery and say they feel refreshed. Your clinician will set realistic expectations during your consult.

It depends on the therapy and your goals. We’ll suggest a sensible cadence and adjust based on how you feel — never more than you need.

IV nutrient therapy is generally not covered by insurance and is paid out of pocket. We’re happy to walk you through pricing and any package or membership savings before you decide.

Yes — we bring Functional Medicine IV therapy to your home, office, or event across the Twin Cities. A $75 concierge fee applies and is waived for groups of three or more. See mobile service →
