Revive Hydration Clinic opened its doors earlier this month in the city's River North neighborhood and is being heralded as the city's first hangover clinic, per Crain's Chicago Business.
For a price of $99, staff at the clinic, located at 222 W. Ontario St., Suite 450, will treat patients' hangover symptoms -- such as nausea or headaches -- with intravenous fluids or other medications, Crain's reports. The session takes about an hour and the impact is reportedly nearly immediate.
The clinic is the brainchild of Dr. Jack Dybis, a surgeon, who explained to Fox Chicago that the medical world is "very aware" of patients' struggle to rehydrate after a night of heavy drinking.
Of course, hungover types aren't the only people who could benefit from treatment at the clinic: as Racked Chicago reported, treatment also would help those battling a cold or flu, the jetlagged or those looking to boost their athletic performance.
While Revive is the first clinic of its kind in Chicago, Las Vegas' Hangover Heaven offers a similar treatment -- on wheels. Its business, which is based out of a bus that drives up and down the Sin City's main strip, is fully mobile.
