An intramuscular booster is an injection designed to deliver vitamins and nutrients directly into the muscle, allowing the formula to be absorbed into the muscles and bloodstream quickly and efficiently. Quicker than an IV drip but less comfortable and with a lower level of bioavailability than an IV, they are perfect for those in a hurry.
Whether it’s our brand-new clinic at The Village in Westfield or our central London location in Soho, our team is ready to provide advanced treatments in a modern, comfortable setting.
An intramuscular (IM) injection delivers a single nutrient, such as B12 or Vitamin D, directly into the muscle, where it’s gradually absorbed into the bloodstream. An IV drip delivers a blend of vitamins, minerals and fluids straight into a vein, bypassing digestion entirely for faster, more complete absorption. IM boosters are quicker to administer and ideal for a single top-up, while IV drips suit those wanting hydration alongside a broader, tailored nutrient blend.
The full process, from a brief check-in to the injection itself, usually takes less than 20 minutes. No downtime is needed afterwards, so you can head straight back to your day.
Yes, pre-booking isn’t always necessary and we welcome walk-ins at our Westfield clinic, with same-day appointments often available at both our Soho and Westfield locations. If you’d like to guarantee a specific time, we’d recommend booking online or calling ahead.
This depends on the booster. B12 effects typically last 2-6 weeks depending on your baseline levels, while a Vitamin D injection can support healthy levels for up to 3 months. We can advise on the right frequency for you based on your symptoms and any blood results.
This varies by booster; most people notice more energy from a B12 injection within 24-72 hours, for example. Our team can talk you through what to expect for your chosen booster during your appointment.
Our B12 Booster is the most popular choice for tiredness and low energy, as B12 plays a key role in energy production and red blood cell formation. If fatigue persists, we’d recommend a blood test such as our Tired All the Time panel first, to check for underlying causes like iron deficiency or thyroid issues before choosing the right injection.
Our Biotin Booster is formulated to help strengthen brittle nails and support hair health, alongside good general nutrition. Since hair loss can also be linked to iron or thyroid issues, we’d suggest a blood test such as our Iron and Micronutrient Panel if hair thinning is a persistent concern.
Our Glutathione Antioxidant Booster is designed to support skin appearance, energy and overall antioxidant defence by helping the body clear free radicals and toxins. It’s a popular choice for those looking to support skin health from within.
