Contrary to popular opinion, you need more than a daily multivitamin to support and improve your health. While an oral vitamin supports your health to a degree, it can’t deliver 100% of those vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to your system the way an IV therapy treatment plan can. At The Repaire Room in Charleston, SC, we offer customized IV treatments that hydrate the body, boost immunity, deliver anti-aging benefits, and improve your health in a way your daily vitamin can’t.
What Is IV Therapy?
IV therapy is a professional health and wellness treatment that uses customized liquid IV formulas delivered directly to the bloodstream to improve hydration, health, and wellness. Each customized treatment contains a combination of vitamins, minerals, and anti-aging ingredients that promote wellness and deliver real and long-lasting results. Our treatments are safe, simple, and effective and can improve your health after just one quick, minimally invasive treatment.

How Does IV Therapy Work?
IV therapy is a simple and efficient process. When you arrive, we’ll administer the IV, typically to a vein in your arm. Then, your chosen IV treatment will slowly drip into your bloodstream, allowing 100 percent absorption of vitamins, minerals, and hydrating fluids. All you have to do during the process is sit back and relax. The entire treatment is painless, quick, and comfortable.
We will create a customized treatment plan for you before administering the IV and determine which treatments will meet your needs. Then, we can begin the process so you can experience all the benefits of balanced vitamin and mineral levels and adequate hydration.
What Can IV Therapy Treat?
Dehydration and Nutrient Deficiencies
Dehydration can occur due to various factors such as illness, exercise, or inadequate water intake. When you’re dehydrated, your body struggles to perform its normal functions, leading to fatigue, headaches, and dizziness. IV therapy can offer effective rehydration by delivering fluids quickly into your bloodstream. This allows your body to absorb what it needs right away without waiting for it to pass through the digestive system.
Immune System and Illness Recovery
Your immune system is your body’s defense against illness. However, stress, poor diet, and lack of sleep can weaken it, leaving you vulnerable to infections and slowing down recovery when you do get sick. To function optimally, your immune system requires adequate hydration and a steady supply of vitamins, particularly vitamin C, zinc, and other antioxidants.
IV therapy provides immune system support by supplying your body with these critical nutrients. This approach can help your immune system function more efficiently, aiding in quicker recovery from illnesses and potentially reducing the frequency of future infections.
Energy, Mood, and Cognitive Function
Conditions like chronic fatigue, brain fog, stress, and anxiety can sap your energy and affect your mood and cognitive abilities. These symptoms often arise when your body lacks certain nutrients, such as B vitamins and magnesium. IV therapy can quickly address these issues by giving your body the right combination of vitamins that properly support energy levels, mood, and cognitive function.
Detoxification and Liver Support
Your body has its own detoxification systems, primarily driven by the liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system. However, these systems can become overwhelmed by toxins from the environment, diet, and lifestyle. Supporting these natural processes through IV therapy can enhance the efficiency of these systems, promoting better overall health.
Pain and Inflammation Management
Your body needs anti-inflammatory nutrients like vitamin C, magnesium, and certain B vitamins to manage and reduce inflammation. Vitamin IV therapy can deliver these anti-inflammatory nutrients directly into your bloodstream, providing relief from pain and inflammation. This treatment can be helpful for those suffering from chronic muscular pain, migraines, fibromyalgia, and more.
Skin, Hair, and Anti-Aging
Your skin and hair’s health reflects your internal nutrient levels, which can decline with age. IV infusion therapy bypasses potential digestive absorption issues, delivering vitamins like biotin and antioxidants directly to your body. This can rejuvenate your skin, strengthen your hair, and combat aging signs, helping you look and feel your best.
Athletic Performance and Recovery
Athletes push their bodies to the limit, which can lead to dehydration, nutrient depletion, and oxidative stress. To recover properly and maintain peak performance, your body needs ample hydration, electrolytes, and recovery-enhancing nutrients like amino acids, magnesium, and vitamin C. IV therapy can support athletic performance and recovery by replenishing lost fluids and nutrients.
Common IV Ingredients and Their Uses
- Vitamin C: Known for its immune system support, vitamin C helps protect your body from infections and speeds up recovery when you’re under the weather. It also promotes healthy skin by supporting collagen production.
- B-Complex Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12): IV vitamin therapy delivers this powerful group of vitamins directly into your bloodstream, supporting energy production, brain function, and cell metabolism. B-complex vitamins are crucial for overall vitality, helping to reduce fatigue and improve mood.
- Magnesium: Essential for muscle relaxation and nerve function, magnesium plays a role in easing muscle cramps and tension. It can also support heart health and help to manage stress levels, promoting a sense of calm.
- Calcium: Vital for maintaining strong bones and teeth, calcium also supports muscle contractions and heart rhythm. This mineral helps keep your skeletal system robust and your muscles functioning smoothly.
- Glutathione: A powerful antioxidant, glutathione aids in detoxification, helping to eliminate harmful toxins from your body. It also supports liver function and can contribute to brighter, more radiant skin.
- NAD+: Often used in IV drip therapy, NAD+ is crucial for cellular energy production and DNA repair. It may help improve mental clarity, combat fatigue, and slow down the effects of aging at the cellular level.
- Zinc: IV nutrient therapy with zinc can boost your immune system, promote wound healing, and support skin health. Zinc is also important for maintaining a strong sense of taste and smell.
- Amino Acids: The building blocks of protein, amino acids are essential for muscle repair and growth. They can help enhance athletic performance, support recovery after exercise, and maintain overall muscle health.
Signs of Chronic Dehydration
Hydration affects everything from energy levels to skin health, but many people don’t realize they’re chronically dehydrated. This can lead to persistent issues like fatigue, dry skin, headaches, and difficulty concentrating. If dehydration becomes more severe, symptoms like dizziness, rapid heartbeat, and confusion can occur, which means you need more urgent attention. Regular IV hydration therapy can help replenish fluids, prevent dehydration, and support overall well-being by addressing these underlying issues.

Frequently Asked Questions About IV Therapy
How Many IV Therapy Sessions Will I Need?
While you will benefit from a single IV therapy treatment session, the best results come from several treatments. Once we meet with you to learn more about your goals and primary health and wellness concerns, we can make treatment recommendations and then give you more details about how many sessions you should schedule for the best and most noticeable results.
Am I a Good Candidate for IV Therapy?
Most patients qualify as candidates for IV therapy. Since the entire process is natural and doesn’t introduce any artificial ingredients or chemicals to the body, you can rest assured that it’s safe and will improve your health, not put it at risk. Some patients may be excluded from treatment for safety reasons, which is why an initial in-depth consultation is necessary to learn more about your medical history and current health so we can proceed accordingly.
Whether you want to improve your immunity, begin a treatment plan that helps you reverse the aging process, recover from a hangover, improve your skin, hydrate your body, or enhance performance and recovery, we can help you choose the right protocol for your needs.
How Long Does an IV Therapy Session Take?
An IV therapy session typically takes 30 to 60 minutes and is efficient and comfortable. The exact duration depends on the type of treatment you’re receiving and your specific needs. During this time, you can relax, read, or catch up on your favorite shows.
How Soon Will I Feel the Effects of IV Therapy?
Many people begin to feel the effects of IV therapy within minutes of the treatment, especially if they were dehydrated or lacking specific nutrients. The full benefits usually become noticeable within a few hours to a day. The immediate hydration and nutrient boost can leave you feeling more energized and focused, depending on the blend used.
Can IV Therapy Replace a Healthy Diet?
Intravenous therapy should not replace a healthy diet but can complement it by providing a quick nutrient boost. A balanced diet is necessary for overall health, supplying your body with a wide range of nutrients that IV therapy alone cannot provide.
How Should I Prepare for IV Therapy?
Before your IV treatments, it’s helpful to drink plenty of water and have a light meal. Staying hydrated makes it easier for the provider to find a vein, and eating can prevent lightheadedness during the session. Wear comfortable clothing and consider bringing something to pass the time, like a book or a podcast.
