About this treatment
What this treatment is designed to do
Vitamin shots are intramuscular (IM) injections that deliver concentrated nutrients directly into muscle tissue for rapid absorption — bypassing the digestive system entirely. Unlike IV drips that take 30-60 minutes, vitamin shots are administered in under a minute and the entire appointment takes just 10-15 minutes, making them the most time-efficient way to correct nutrient deficiencies and boost energy.
The most popular shots include B12 (methylcobalamin for energy and neurological function), glutathione (the master antioxidant for skin, detox, and immune function), biotin (for hair, skin, and nail strength), B-complex (full spectrum of B vitamins for stress and metabolism), and lipotropic MIC injections (methionine, inositol, choline for fat metabolism and liver support).
Vitamin shots are ideal for people who don't absorb oral supplements well (common in gut issues, low stomach acid, or MTHFR variants), busy professionals who want a quick wellness boost, and anyone preparing for travel, recovering from illness, or supporting a fitness regimen.
