Most clients ask me the same thing before their first NAD+ session: "is this just expensive caffeine?" It isn't, and the difference is worth understanding before you try it.
NAD+ is a coenzyme every cell in your body uses to convert nutrients into usable energy — think of it less like a stimulant and more like restocking the raw material your cells run on. Levels decline naturally with age, stress, and poor sleep, which is part of why fatigue can creep in even when nothing's obviously "wrong."
Clients who come in for NAD+ usually aren't chasing a quick lift — they're noticing a slower kind of depletion: foggier focus, longer recovery after workouts, energy that dips earlier in the day than it used to. Restoring NAD+ levels supports the cellular processes behind sustained energy and mental clarity, rather than masking fatigue the way caffeine does.
Like all of our infusions and injections, NAD+ is meant to support a specific goal you're working toward — in this case, energy — rather than treat or diagnose any underlying condition.
It tends to be most worth considering if you're past your mid-30s, under regular physical or mental stress, or simply notice your usual reserves aren't bouncing back the way they once did.
NAD+ is available both as an intramuscular injection and as a full IV infusion. For most clients, I start with the injection — the appointment itself takes about 15 minutes, no IV line needed, and it fits easily into a busy day. The trade-off is absorption: an infusion goes directly into your bloodstream, so it's fully absorbed, while an injection is absorbed through muscle tissue first, so slightly less of the dose reaches circulation. If you have more time and want the deeper version — complete absorption, a higher dose, and added hydration — the full infusion is there for that.
I run every NAD+ session slowly and at a dose tailored to how you're tolerating it that day — it's not a protocol I rush, and I'll always check in with you throughout.
If this resonates, start with the NAD+ injection for a shorter appointment — or if you have the time, the NAD+ and NAD+ Elite infusions offer the fuller version of the same support.
