Vitamin Injections
Fortis Behavioral Health is committed to your total health and well being. Many individuals who struggle with mental health often struggle with proper nutrition. We recognize that modern diets are often lacking in proper vitamins and micronutrients. Our Weight and Wellness office is here to help you meet your body’s needs. You do not need to be a current participant in our medication management or psychotherapy programs to participate in our FortiShots Program! (But it helps!)
All shots are by prescription only and require an initial records assessment by our Nurse Practitioner.
Injections may be contraindicated for persons with certain allergies, pregnant or nursing mothers, and those with specific health conditions.
Vitamin injections, such as vitamin C, B6, and B12 injections, can help replenish depleted levels of important vitamins that occur due to a poor diet. Patients may absorb vitamins less effectively with age even if they do maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins. A deficiency may also occur in patients that have undergone weight loss surgery or a surgical procedure that removed part of the stomach. Additionally, regularly drinking alcohol or taking acid-reducing medications may cause your body to be less efficient at absorbing necessary vitamins, resulting in vitamin deficiencies that cause unpleasant symptoms like fatigue or a lowered immune system. Offering vitamin injections, Fortis Behavioral Health can help treat vitamin deficiencies you may have.
HOW CAN VITAMIN THERAPY HELP ME?
When you suffer from a vitamin deficiency, you may feel groggy, experience trouble sleeping or have a slower metabolism. Vitamin injections correct vitamin deficiencies and have been shown to slow down the effects of aging, reduce the severity of asthma and correct chronic fatigue. Conditions such as colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, diabetes, and depression may be managed through vitamin injections
VITAMIN INJECTIONS VS. ORAL VITAMINS?
While vitamins are found in many fruits and vegetables, even if a patient follows a healthy diet they may still not be getting their daily requirement. Vitamin deficiencies can affect patients who eat well, are an ideal weight and exercise regularly. While over-the-counter vitamins are available, they are not as strong or effective as vitamin injections. These therapies are scientifically designed to relieve symptoms of many different conditions. Vitamin injections enable a high concentration of vitamins to enter the body quickly and easily. The effects of vitamin injections are felt by most patients the same day as their treatment, providing quick relief to uncomfortable or painful symptoms associated with certain deficiencies.
Fortis Behavioral Health is committed to providing compassionate, integrative mental health services tailored to the unique wellness journey of each individual we serve.
