Vitamin B-12 Shots
B12 shots can be used as a supplement to boost energy levels, improve mood, and support overall health and well-being, particularly in individuals with conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia. Our prescription for most patients is weekly B12 shots for a two to three-month period and with monitoring symptoms to see the response. We then suggest injections once a month.
Who Can Benefit From a B12 Shot?
Those with low levels of vitamin B12 in their blood, which can occur due to factors such as insufficient dietary intake, poor bsorption, gastrointestinal surgeries, or certain medications, may benefit from B12 shots to replenish their levels and alleviate symptoms. Since vitamin B12 is primarily found in animal products, individuals following a strict vegetarian or vegan diet may be at risk of B12 deficiency and could benefit from B12 shots to ensure adequate intake of this essential nutrient. Older adults are more prone to B12 deficiency due to factors such as decreased stomach acid production, reduced absorption efficiency, and dietary factors. In addition, individuals with conditions that affect the stomach or intestines, such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, or gastric bypass surgery, can interfere with B12 absorption. B12 shots may be recommended for individuals with these conditions to bypass the digestive system and deliver B12 directly into the bloodstream.
Some of the conditions that may benefit from Vitamin B12 injections include:
- Low mood (depression)
- Poor sleep
- Low energy
- Diminished mental focus
- Hormone imbalance
- Chronic fatigue
- Dementia
- Hyperthyroidism
- Diabetic neuropathy
- Sciatica
- Neurodermatitis
- Asthma
How Are Vitamin B12 Injections Different than Taking B12 Supplements?
Vitamin B12 injections are administered directly into the muscle tissue (intramuscular injection), allowing the vitamin to bypass the digestive system and enter the bloodstream immediately. In contrast, B12 supplements are typically taken orally in pill or capsule form and must pass through the digestive tract before being absorbed. When you get a B12 shot, our healthcare professionals can precisely control the dosage and frequency of administration, allowing for higher doses to be delivered if necessary.
How Long do the Effects of My B12 Injections Last?
The duration of the effects of B12 injections can vary depending on individual factors such as metabolism, absorption efficiency, and overall health status, as well as the dosage and frequency of injections. In general, the effects of a B12 injection can last for several weeks to months.
After receiving a B12 injection, you may experience an initial boost in energy levels, mood, and cognitive function within a few days to a week. This improvement typically lasts for a few weeks, gradually tapering off as the body metabolizes and utilizes the injected B12.
Vitamin D Shots
Vitamin D-3 is an essential fat-soluble vitamin important for normal bone development and maintenance. It not only contributes to bone health but facilitates hormone regulation, helps to manage blood sugar levels, and helps with concentration learning, and memory. The major role of Vitamin D is to maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus in the body. Vitamin D boosts the immune system, bone strength and density, treats osteoporosis, boosts mental cognition and general well-being.
Our vitamin D shots deliver a concentrated dose of vitamin D-3 directly into the bloodstream, allowing for rapid absorption and utilization by the body.
Who Can Benefit From a Vitamin D Shot?
Vitamin D supports immune system function.This is a big reason why vitamin D shots are highly sought after during flu season. These injections can help maintain optimal vitamin D levels where sun exposure is insufficient, or for individuals who have trouble absorbing vitamin D from dietary sources. In addition, Vitamin D shots can help improve cognitive function in adults, especially those who are elderly or have memory problems.
Some of the conditions that may benefit from Vitamin D injections include:
- Low mood (depression)
- Poor sleep
- Low energy
- Vitamin D Deficiency
- Osteoporosis and Bone Health
- Chronic fatigue
- Autoimmune Disorders

Skinny Shots
Skinny Shots also known as lipotropic injections help you get a leg up on looking and feeling your absolute best. Skinny shots are used to help patients with weight loss by boosting energy and metabolism while increasing the removal of fat.
Remember that the Skinny Shot is a valuable weight loss tool, but it works best when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise routine. Ask us about our Detox & Weight Loss Programs!
Our Skinny Shot works in numerous ways to promote weight loss by including these critical components:
- Vitamin B-12: Important for red blood cell production, improving energy levels and brain function.
- Methionine: An amino acid found in many proteins is critical in making new proteins inside the cells. It continuously occurs as older proteins break down (like protein depletion after an exercise). Additionally, this process helps build muscle and support cells, as well as supports the liver and gall bladder to optimize fat burning.
- Choline. It distributes cholesterol and prevents it from getting deposited in one part of the body, a component of lipotropics that is essential for fat metabolism.
- Inositol. Helps burn fat and aids the liver in getting rid of fat while also influencing the action of insulin, a hormone essential for blood sugar control. Inositol also helps relieve depression and anxiety by affecting chemical messengers in your brains, such as serotonin and dopamine.
- L-Carnitine. This allows the body to burn more fat, save glycogen, and boost stamina and endurance.
