Semaglutide (Wegovy)

As more Americans turn toward medical weight loss treatments, focusing on overall wellness has become more important. If you are struggling to lose weight and are considering a weight-loss program, you are not alone. More than one-third of Americans in the United States are obese. (1) Semaglutide is one of the most popular weight loss injections because it is convenient, effective, and customizable. We can develop a treatment plan based on your needs to help you eliminate excess fat and meet your body goals.

How Semaglutide Works

Semaglutide injections work by optimizing appetite control and satiety, leading to reduced food intake and subsequent weight loss. It offers a viable solution to the obesity epidemic, providing patients with a medically supervised approach to long-term weight management.

Wegovy is available as a weekly injection. Many patients like this convenience because treatment takes less than 15 minutes and our staff can monitor your progress to help you achieve your desired results. Many patients prefer to stay on semaglutide as a long-term solution to weight loss. Semaglutide is a well-tolerated weight loss solution that does not come with the risks of scarring or anesthesia associated with surgical procedures.

Vitamin B12 Injections

Vitamin B12 injections are one of the most effective ways to reduce fatigue and support your body during your weight loss journey. Aging, diet, pregnancy, and weight changes can affect your figure, energy, and mood. The good news is that these changes to your body do not need to be permanent. If you notice that your diet and exercise do not restore your energy levels the way they used to, a vitamin B12 injection can help boost your energy and recalibrate your body so you can get back to your daily routine with renewed vigor.

Signs of Vitamin B12 Deficiency

With a vitamin injection, we can treat the source of your symptoms for long-lasting results. Your diet and genetics determine how much vitamin B12 your body can absorb from your diet. (2) If you have a plant-based diet you are at a higher risk of a vitamin B12 deficiency and the following symptoms:

  • Fatigue
  • Weakness
  • Heart Palpitations
  • Diarrhea
  • Numbness
  • Vision Changes
  • Behavioral Changes
  • Anemia
  • Intestine Issues
  • Unexplained Weight Loss

Benefits of B12 Injections

B12 injections help your body get the nutrients it needs quickly and effectively. B12 naturally occurs in fish, seafood, red meat, dairy products, and cereals, but with the stress of daily lifestyle factors, sometimes the vitamins in your food are not enough to support your body. A vitamin B12 deficiency can cause anemia, (3) fatigue, lightheadedness, heart palpitations, constipation, and muscle weakness. After a vitamin B12 shot, you can enjoy:

  • Increased energy
  • Improved mood
  • A more productive metabolism
  • Enhanced vascular health
  • Improved memory
  • Better sleep
  • Enhanced immune function
  • Healthier skin

According to recent studies, vitamin B12 can also help with skin disorders and improve the appearance of your hair, skin, and nails for additional benefits. (4) Why wait to support your health? Schedule your consultation at Nubo Spa to get started on your wellness journey.
