ONTARIO Jenny Swisher opened The CRU Clinic at the beginning of April. It is a business not so common in the area.

She said the diversity of CRUs services differentiate it from others. The clinic offers aesthetics services, IV hydration, testosterone replacement and weight loss programs.

CRU stands for contemporary, refined and unique. Swisher said the business goal is to provide contemporary care for refined wellness that is unique to each individual.

Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for CRU on Thursday afternoon.

Swisher, a certified nurse practitioner, said the IV hydration service is nutrient infusion therapy. Depending on the need, customers can get anything from calcium to vitamin B complex through the infusion.

When you take oral vitamins, you only get about 50 percent (of what you eat) if you have a good GI (gastrointestinal tract)absorption system. But sometimes, less than 50 percent is actually absorbed, Swisher said.

And with the IVs, you get 90 to 100 percent of what you get infused.

She said the service is rare in the area and some people have been driving to Columbus or Cleveland for it.

Those who are nutritionally deficient would benefit from the infusion, Swisher said. It can help rehydrate a hangover as well. For those who do weight-lifting or activities consuming a lot of energy within a short time, the infusion will help them replenish essential nutrients quickly.

Swisher said the aesthetics services have been popular since the clinic was open. It offers Botox injection, lip fillers and dermal fillers. The owner filled her own lips about a week ago to get rid of some wrinkles around.

She said she wanted to be able to experience what her patients go through during the process.

CRU also targets male customers with hormone replacement therapy. Swisher said men go through andropause just like women go through menopause. They might feel fatigued, be unable to gain muscle or have a decline in sex drive. The clinic can tailor the therapy and meet an individuals needs.

The CRU Clinic is located at 2293 Village Park Court. It opens from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays. Swisher said most services are provided through appointments, but walk-in IV infusions are available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Those interested can check The CRU Clinics website or call 419-775-5457 for more information.
