Injection Therapies
Wellness Shots
Acupuncture Injection Therapy, also known as Acupoint Injection, is a technique that combines traditional acupuncture with the injection of therapeutic substances into acupuncture points. This approach integrates the principles of both acupuncture and modern medicine to address various health conditions.
In Acupuncture Injection Therapy, a trained practitioner inserts fine needles into specific acupuncture points on the body. These needles may be pre-loaded with various therapeutic substances, such as vitamins, homeopathic remedies, or herbal extracts. The injection of these substances into the acupuncture points is believed to enhance the therapeutic effects of both acupuncture and the injected substance.
The choice of substances used in Acupuncture Injection Therapy depends on the individual's health condition and treatment goals. For example, vitamin injections may be used to boost energy levels or support immune function, while homeopathic remedies may be chosen to address pain, specific symptoms or imbalances in the body.
Acupuncture Injection Therapy is often used to treat a wide range of conditions, including pain management, musculoskeletal disorders, neurological conditions, allergies, and skin conditions. It is typically performed by licensed acupuncturists or healthcare professionals trained in acupuncture and injection techniques.
While Acupuncture Injection Therapy is considered safe when performed by qualified practitioners, it's essential to consult with a healthcare provider to determine if it's appropriate for your specific health needs. As with any medical treatment, potential risks and benefits should be carefully considered before undergoing Acupuncture Injection Therapy.
Homeopathic Injection Therapy
Homeopathics are based on the principle that “like cures like.” They are made from natural sources of plants and minerals and are environmentally friendly and cruelty free. Homeopathic remedies are safe because of the amount of dilution that occurs to the ingredients.
The homeopathic injections at Scottsdale Acupuncture:
Traumeel: used for trauma and injury
Zeel used for arthritis and chronic pain
Spascupreel: used for muscle spasm and tension
Engystol: used for immune boosting, alternative to a flu shot

All of these options are incredibly safe even while taking pharmaceuticals and are a great addition to treatments as well as used singularly.

Reverse the Aging Process
Aging is inevitable, but the rate at which we age can be influenced by lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management. Recent scientific discoveries have identified nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) as a key player in the aging process at the cellular level. Clinical trials have shown that NAD+ can reverse aging in laboratory mice, leading to its growing popularity in anti-aging therapies.
What is NAD+?
NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body and is crucial for cellular processes like DNA repair. As we age, NAD+ levels decline, leading to slower cell repair and an increased risk of degenerative health issues. Although NAD+ supplements are available, they are less effective due to the body’s inability to fully absorb them through the digestive system. NAD+ injections, however, deliver the coenzyme directly to the bloodstream, ensuring immediate distribution to cells for optimal repair and rejuvenation.
NAD+ and Brain Health
Cognitive decline, including conditions like dementia and Alzheimer's, is a major concern with aging. NAD+ therapy can stimulate the creation of new neurons, enhance brain neuroplasticity, reduce inflammation, and support neurotransmitter production, which regulates mood, sleep, and anxiety.
Benefits of NAD+ Therapy
Improved Metabolism: Supports the mitochondria and helps repair DNA.
Anti-Aging: Maintains telomere length, which is directly linked to aging.
Brain Health: Promotes neuroplasticity and reduces cognitive decline.
Enhanced Physical & Mental Performance: Improves overall vitality and well-being.
Oral vs. Injection Supplementation
While oral supplements are available, they must be processed through the digestive system, resulting in partial absorption. NAD+ injections, administered subcutaneously, bypass this process and deliver the coenzyme directly to the cells, providing faster and more effective results.
NAD+ Injection Therapy for Anti-Aging
NAD+ injection therapy is gaining popularity among celebrities, athletes, and health-conscious individuals seeking to combat the effects of aging and maintain long-term health. To maximize the benefits of NAD+ therapy, direct injections are the preferred method.

Glutathione $40
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant naturally found in the body. It's composed of three amino acids: glutamine, cysteine, and glycine. This molecule plays a crucial role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals. It also supports various bodily functions, including detoxification, immune system support, and the metabolism of fats and proteins.
Some of its key functions include:
Antioxidant Defense: Glutathione neutralizes harmful free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can cause cell damage and contribute to aging and diseases.
Detoxification: It helps the liver detoxify by binding to harmful substances and aiding their excretion.
Immune System Support: Glutathione is involved in maintaining healthy immune function, supporting the body's defense against infections.
Cellular Health: It plays a role in maintaining the integrity and function of cells, especially in areas with high metabolic activity like the liver.
Because of its potential benefits, glutathione is often used in skin care products, supplements, and even as a treatment for conditions like liver disease, certain types of cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases.
“Skinny Shot” Lipotropic & Detox Injections
(MIC Injection) Methionine, Inositol, Choline $30
Lipotropic injections are a collection of nutrients that facilitate fat metabolism and encourage liver detoxification. This makes lipotropic injections a great addition to any dietary wellness program to assist your body’s ability to detox and metabolize fat more efficiently. If the liver is damaged by toxins or overwhelmed with excessive metabolic tasks, it will be less able to process fats and other metabolites. Naturally occurring “lipotropes” such as choline, inositol, and methionine specifically target fat to burn for energy while also keeping the liver healthy. It’s like giving the liver more of the tools it needs to do its job when it is bogged down. This can help normalize insulin levels, control elevated cholesterol levels and help with non alcoholic fatty liver disease.
