NAD therapy boosts energy, brain function, and cellular health by restoring mitochondrial efficiency. Now available at Premier Functional Medicine in Chandler.
If you’re struggling with low energy, brain fog, or signs of aging that seem to arrive too early, your cells may be missing a key molecule: NAD. Short for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NAD is essential for mitochondrial function, DNA repair, and healthy aging. NAD therapy is quickly gaining attention as a cutting-edge treatment that supports energy, cognitive clarity, and overall cellular health from the inside out.
NAD is a coenzyme found in every cell of your body. It helps convert nutrients into energy and is crucial for cellular repair and longevity. As we age, NAD levels naturally decline. This decline is linked to reduced mitochondrial function, fatigue, cognitive decline, and slower metabolism.
Stress, poor sleep, toxin exposure, and chronic illness can further deplete NAD reserves. Without sufficient NAD, your body’s ability to produce energy, repair DNA, and regulate inflammation becomes compromised. That’s why NAD therapy is being used to restore function at the most fundamental level—your cells.
NAD therapy typically involves intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) delivery of NAD+ to bypass the digestive system and deliver it directly into the bloodstream. This allows for faster absorption and more noticeable effects. Some clinics also use NAD precursors like nicotinamide riboside (NR) or nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) in supplement form, but IV therapy delivers higher concentrations more efficiently.
At Premier Functional Medicine in Chandler, Arizona, NAD therapy is personalized based on your health goals.

Since NAD levels affect so many systems in the body, improving them can result in widespread improvements in how you feel, think, and function day to day.
NAD IV therapy sessions typically last 60 to 90 minutes. Some people feel an immediate boost in clarity and vitality, while others notice gradual improvements over several sessions. Any mild side effects—such as warmth or lightheadedness during the drip—are temporary and easily managed by adjusting the infusion rate.
At Premier Functional Medicine in Chandler, Arizona, NAD therapy is delivered in a relaxed, supportive environment, often as part of a larger functional wellness plan. It’s frequently combined with other treatments like micronutrient infusions, hormone optimization, or detox support for enhanced results.
When energy drops, focus fades, or aging accelerates, the problem often begins at the cellular level. NAD therapy offers a direct way to restore your body’s core energy systems and support long-term resilience. It’s not just about feeling better today—it’s about protecting your brain, metabolism, and vitality for the future.
