What is peptide therapy?

Peptide therapy is a type of complementary medicine. It uses natural growth factors, called peptides, to restore your body to balance*. 

Peptides are the building blocks of proteins. Specifically, they’re chains of amino acids that regulate various bodily functions, including digestion, metabolism, and the immune system. Some peptides even deliver nutrients to your internal organs or skin.

Peptides are incredibly important, but they decrease in number as you age. What’s more, lifestyle factors, like not exercising, smoking, and eating a poor diet may accelerate their destruction.

Peptide therapy prevents that from happening by increasing your peptide levels. That results in more energy, a higher libido, increased muscle mass, and improved quality of life.*

What are the benefits of peptide therapy?

Peptide therapy offers a wide range of benefits*, but Emily emphasizes three in particular:

Hormone regulation

If your body produces too many or too few hormones, it increases your risk of more serious health problems. Since peptides help regulate your metabolism, therapy can reduce the risk of drastic fluctuations.

Increased amino acid concentrations

The natural aging process causes your hard and soft tissues to experience general wear-and-tear. Peptide therapy delivers concentrated proteins to specific areas of your body, encouraging the production of new and healthy tissues.

Healing damaged cells

Certain peptides have regenerative properties. Peptides can encourage your natural healing process, promote weight loss, or improve feelings of overall health and wellness.*

What is peptide therapy used for?

At Austin Wellness Solutions, Emily uses peptide therapy for:

• Anti-aging 
• Hormone replacement
• Medical weight loss
• Sexual health
• Pain management
• Aiding in sleep
• Improving athletic performance

After a review of your medical records, a physical exam, and a discussion of your symptoms and goals for treatment, Emily develops a custom treatment plan that aligns with your needs. 

When will I experience results from peptide therapy?

The time it takes to experience results from peptide therapy depends on your age, the problem treated, and the severity of your symptoms. Some people notice a significant improvement in their energy levels and libido within a week,* but it often takes up to a month and sometimes longer. Be patient, follow Emily’s instructions, and attend each of your scheduled checkups.
