We're you able to get answers to your questions. I am in a similar situation and was looking for answers also!

In order to offer these things you’ll need someone licensed/certified to place IV’s and to administer IV fluids/medications. In Michigan, the person performing these medical procedures (generally RN, paramedic, etc) also needs to be overseen by a medical director (in Michigan I think that needs to be a physician, unless they have expanded that to NP’s). You could also look to partner with someone to offer these services at your business, though it may not be as profitable. I signed on to start my own mobile IV therapy business, and I think partnering with a salon to offer these services would be a definite possibility!

I think it will be known  very quickly by the public that this is a scam, so don't quit your day job.
