Hangover Heaven operates as a mobile clinic specializing in hangover treatment, headquartered in Paradise, Nevada. The company delivers hangover relief through intravenous (IV) therapy.[1][2][3][4][5][6] It holds the distinction of being the pioneering clinic to conduct research on hangover therapies via its Hangover Research Institute.[6] Established by Dr. Jason Burke, an anesthesiologist trained at Duke University,[1][2] the clinic commenced operations in April 2012.[7][8]

History

Dr. Burke initiated Hangover Heaven after identifying that certain intravenous treatments commonly used in hospital recovery rooms could effectively mitigate hangover symptoms. Through testing, he formulated a saline solution enriched with vitamins, antioxidants, and medications designed to alleviate symptoms within approximately one hour. To reduce initial investment expenses, Burke acquired a 45-foot Eagle M-15 bus that functions both as transportation and the primary treatment facility, launching this mobile clinic in April 2012.

The vehicle is equipped with comfortable lounge spaces and sleeping areas, navigating the Las Vegas Strip to collect patients and provide at-home services. Hangover Heaven offers three distinct treatment protocols that integrate multivitamins, antioxidants, and drugs targeting nausea and inflammation. Additionally, the company provides educational resources on hangover prevention, preventive IV therapies such as the Myers’ cocktail, and vitamin supplements through its Vita Heaven product line.

Initially available only on weekends, the service expanded to daily operations supported by a second clinic located in a traditional office setting. This combination of a mobile clinic approach alongside a broad range of services has driven Hangover Heaven’s growth and established its competitive position within the wellness sector.

Reception

The medical community has expressed reservations regarding Hangover Heaven's treatment methods. Dr. Drew Pinsky engaged in a debate with founder Burke concerning the clinic’s approach and its association with alcoholism, while Dr. Arthur Caplan cautioned about potential dangers when treating individuals with pre-existing health conditions. In response, Burke highlighted that his business model incorporates comprehensive medical assessments and employs emergency medical technicians along with registered nurses to maintain patient safety standards.
