About This Treatment
Vitamin B12 plays a role in energy production, nerve function, and red blood cell formation. Many people have suboptimal B12 levels without knowing it, particularly vegetarians, vegans, and those over 50. This quick injection delivers methylcobalamin—a bioavailable form of B12—directly to your muscles.
Many clients report feeling more energized within hours to days after treatment.
How It Works: B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that can be difficult to absorb through digestion—particularly as we age or with certain digestive conditions. Intramuscular injection bypasses the digestive system, delivering 1000mcg of methylcobalamin directly into muscle tissue where it's absorbed into your bloodstream.
What to Expect: Individual responses vary based on baseline B12 levels and overall health. Some clients notice improved energy within 24-48 hours, with effects that may last 1-2 weeks. For those with low B12 levels, regular shots may help support energy, mood, and mental clarity over time.

Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin, 1000mcg)
The bioactive form of Vitamin B12, essential for energy production, nerve function, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis. Methylcobalamin is preferred over cyanocobalamin for its superior bioavailability.
THE SCIENCE
How It
Works
Vitamin B12 is essential for your body's energy production at the cellular level. It's a key cofactor in the methylation cycle — a fundamental biochemical process that affects energy, mood, detoxification, and DNA repair.
B12 deficiency is surprisingly common, affecting an estimated 15-40% of the population. Factors that increase risk include age (absorption decreases over time), vegetarian/vegan diets (B12 is primarily found in animal products), certain medications (particularly acid reducers), and digestive conditions that impair absorption.
Intramuscular injection delivers B12 directly into muscle tissue, where it's absorbed into the bloodstream over several hours. This bypasses the complex absorption process in the gut, which requires intrinsic factor and adequate stomach acid — both of which can be compromised.
