About Julie and Nuyu Clinic

Hello, my name is Julie and I am a Registered Nurse and one of the founders of NuYu Clinic.

Our aim is to help customers feel the very best they can. I have been working as a Nurse for over 30 years and have seen the benefits of Vitamin B12 injections first-hand. I am very happy to bring these injections to The Self Centre and look forward to helping others on their wellness journey.

Vitamin B12 Wellness Injections

Vitamin B12 Injections can boost your energy levels, immune strength, sleep and metabolism.

Vitamin B12, also know as Cobalamin, is an essential vitamin that your body needs but cannot produce. It is found in animal products and is added to some other foods such as breakfast cereals.

Vegetarians & Vegans may particularly benefit from Vitamin B12 injections. Vitamin B12 has many roles in the body, B12 is particularly important in cell growth in the central nervous system (CNS) and is therefore essential for the normal function of your nerve cells.

Vitamin B12 is also needed for the formulation of red blood cells and DNA synthesis. The B vitamins and in particular B12 play a vital role in how your body produces what it needs for energy. If you are deficient in Vitamin B12 an injection will definitely give your energy levels a boost. In fact, one of the first signs of a Vitamin B12 deficiency is fatigue.

Vitamin B12 injections can offer many benefits including:

• Increased energy levels
• Increased concentration
• Improved mood
• Help to improve sleeping patterns
• Boost to the immune system
• Hormonal balance
• Skin pigment balance
• Youthful skin
• Boost your metabolism

Your body cannot store Vitamin B12 so repeated B12 injections can help ensure your body is functioning at its optimum level to remain focused and healthy. It is also great for hair, skin and nails. Because of its unique role in the production and regeneration of cells this means it is needed for healthy skin, hair and nails. Vitamin B12 can also help combat mood swings, loss of focus and depression by synthesising melatonin, dopamine and serotonin, the chemical messengers that influence your moods.

Melatonin regulates your mood and sleep patterns, so if you suffer from Vitamin B12 deficiency you may feel tired throughout the day and struggle to sleep. Vitamin B12 injections can help improve your sleeping patterns.

Vitamin B12 injections (Methylcolbalamin) are administered by an intramuscular injection in the top of the arm. These can be given as a one off injection or as an ongoing treatment course. It is advisable to have a starting dose of one injection per week for four weeks then have one injection every three months thereafter. These injections are generally considered safe as it is a water soluble vitamin, which means your body excretes any extra it does not need in your urine.

We offer these injections carried out by our Registered Nurse who regularly injects these to patients in her nursing role.
