Vitamin and hayfever injections

 Vitamin C is a powerful natural antioxidant and helps to protect the body. It is vital for healthy skin, blood vessels, bones, and cartilage. It also promotes and aids in healing. Not getting enough Vitamin C can leave you feeling sluggish, run-down, prone to frequent bouts of illness, and looking tired. Injecting Vitamin C delivers the perfect amount of this vital vitamin directly, leaving you feeling and looking fantastic. Because the injections are delivered directly into the bloodstream, they are perfect for those with sensitive stomachs, as oral supplements can irritate the stomach. The body only absorbs 15% of an oral supplement, whereas it can take in much more when it is delivered via IM or IV. Vitamin C has a positive impact on skin pigmentation, free radicals, resistance to allergies and some health conditions.

Benefits:

Absorbed better than oral supplements

Reduces fatigue

Improves the look and quality of the skin

More gentle on sensitive stomachs

Boosts the immune system

Gives you more energy

  We obtain Vitamin D through certain foods in our diet but the best way to top our Vitamin D levels is through sun exposure. However, our English climate means sunshine can be sparse, and many people suffer from low Vitamin D levels which can cause them to feel depressed, tired, have muscle weakness, hair loss and even issues with their bones. Many people take oral Vitamin D supplements to give themselves a boost, particularly in autumn and winter, but a Vitamin D injection is even more powerful as it bypasses the gut for maximum absorption. Going straight to your bloodstream, this booster will counteract the lack of sunshine with a mega dose of this essential nutrient, along with essential vitamins and minerals. The perfect remedy for the darker months, you can be assured your immunity against flu and other illnesses will be boosted. Your overall health and wellbeing will be vastly improved, with this vitamin shot also benefiting your mood, so you will be less likely to feel down despite the weather with improved energy levels.

  Biotin improves the basic protein that makes up hair, skin and nails. This protein is called keratin. Biotin deficiency can cause dry skin, brittle nails and hair, as well as hair loss. Biotin can be taken in a tablet form or given intramuscularly as an injection. Most supplements are not effectively absorbed by our bodies through ingestion and thus intramuscular biotin injection has been helpful in increasing biotin levels faster in many patients.For many people, a Vitamin H deficiency can lead to significant problems with their skin’s inner health and outer appearance. Dry, itchy skin is one of the most common issues, although more serious conditions like acne and psoriasis can also arise. Keep in mind that if you don’t nourish your skin from the inside, resulting hormonal issues can result in serious skin problems on the outside. In most cases, a biotin supplement can correct the issue, improving skin and helping to create a youthful glow. Higher doses of biotin have resulted in significant nail health improvement. Studies have shown that those who take a biotin supplement can thicken their nails by up to 25 percent and decrease the amount of nail splitting and breakage they endure.

Nerve tissue and bone marrow

Strengthen hair and nails

Hay fever is nasal inflammation caused by your immune system overreacting to allergens. This response is commonly triggered by pet hair and dust or pollen in the case of hay fever. Although most people only experience mild hay fever symptoms, the allergy can be debilitating for some – especially those who haven’t responded to the treatments on offer over the counter or from an NHS GP. What is the Hay Fever Injection? It is an injection containing Triamcinolone Acetonide 40mg/1ml which is the active ingredient that belongs to a group of medicines commonly known as “Steroids” that work to reduce the body’s allergy and inflammatory response, this is a great way to treat Hay fever, but it does come with its risks too. Whilst some people continue to treat their hay fever with over-the-counter treatments, most people find the allergies and condition so severe that the limited risks are worth having the injection. The Hay fever Injection will not cure hay fever, but it will suppress the immune system to help ease symptoms. 

How is the procedure carried out? If you are found to be suitable for treatment, and you wish to go ahead, we will disinfect the injection site (upper outer quadrant of one of the buttocks) before giving an intramuscular injection which is virtually pain free

Benefits: 

A fast and easy treatment, the injection of a steroid is proven to be an effective hay fever prevention method for many people. The drug administered is completely safe and approved for use in the UK (the treatment was available from the NHS in the past and is routinely administered in other countries)

In most cases, following treatment, the injection relieves and reduces severe symptoms so that they can live a normal life without feeling tired and fatigued, for others it completely relieves symptoms.
