Targeted Health Support
Tap into the Potential of Natural Compounds
Naturopathic injection therapies provide a safe and effective way to deliver natural substances directly into the body, offering targeted support for various health concerns.
Injections often consist of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other natural compounds, including vitamin B12, vitamin C, magnesium, and glutathione.
At Active Solutions Health + Sport, we currently offer 7 different types of injection therapies.
Injection therapy is used to address various health concerns, such as fatigue, immune support, pain management, and stress reduction.
The injections are typically administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously, depending on the specific therapy and desired outcome.
Injection therapies are commonly used for pain management, anti-inflammatory purposes, and to address various health conditions.
Dr. Adam Godkin, ND, has special certification in injection therapy techniques to ensure safe and effective administration. Contact us to get started!

Injection Therapies Process
In most cases, before you start with injection therapies, you’ll need an assessment with our naturopathic doctor. Here’s what to expect at Active Solutions Health + Sport.
Assessment
Before you can begin with injection therapies, you’ll start with an initial assessment with our naturopathic doctor, Dr. Godkin. We also offer a free 15 minute “meet and greet” consultation if you have questions about injection therapy (note that this is not the same as an assessment).
Injection
In some circumstances Dr. Godkin can and will do injection therapy during your initial assessment session. In other cases, he may not perform the injection therapy until your second session. If you have been referred from another practitioner for a specific treatment, the injection is usually performed on the initial visit.
Post-Treatment
You’ll be provided with post-treatment education following injection therapy. For some patients, this includes recommendations on exercises, stretches, and activities that they can do following injection therapy.
