Peptide Therapy
What is Peptide Therapy?
Peptides are the building blocks of amino acids. They are pieces of proteins that naturally occur in the body. Peptides help provide pain relief, accelerate the healing process, and improve hormone production, among others.
There are over 7,000 known peptides in the body and they vary greatly across different individuals. However, as we age, the number and quality of peptides naturally produced by our bodies tend to decline.
Peptide Therapy addresses this problem by restoring the number of peptides within the body to improve certain biological functions. By optimizing levels of certain peptides, the therapy stimulates cellular regrowth.
Typically, peptides are administered directly into the bloodstream through injections. However, they may also be applied through nasal sprays, oral supplements, or as topical creams.
Schedule your virtual consultation with Lisa to find out which Peptides would be best for you.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)
How Does Low Testosterone Affect Men?
Testosterone is a natural hormone responsible for the normal growth and development of certain male organs and the maintenance of other masculine traits. In men, testosterone is produced in the testes (the reproductive glands that also produce sperm) and regulated by the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. With low testosterone levels, men can experience a decrease in energy and libido, an increase in body fat, and emotional changes.
A decrease in testosterone levels is to be expected as men age. Other factors can also contribute to low T, including chronic health issues such as diabetes or obesity, and medications such as corticosteroids, or trauma. Our comprehensive health assessment tests for low testosterone levels as well as a multitude of other related issues and can be treated with customized, testosterone replacement therapy treatment plans.
How Common Is Low Testosterone?
It’s hard to pin down an exact number for exactly how common testosterone deficiency is among men. The condition becomes drastically more common as men age, and it’s estimated that as many as 40% of older men have low testosterone.
Many men, especially younger men, are nervous to seek treatment for low testosterone. While symptoms differ from person to person, men with low testosterone also experience a decrease in libido, erectile dysfunction, and heart disease. Waiting to seek help can lead to the late detection and worsening of these progressive conditions.
Take this quick quiz to see if you suffer from symptoms of low testosterone
Signs and Symptoms of Low Testosterone
Fatigue
Low testosterone can result in a lack of energy. If you find that you're feeling sleepy for much of the day, even after you've had a good night of rest, there's a high chance that a hormonal imbalance is to blame. Many patients find that their energy levels soar after they begin testosterone therapy.
Weight gain, particularly around the belly
Testosterone encourages muscle growth. When men do not have enough testosterone, it can inhibit muscle growth. Muscle tissue burns calories at a higher rate than fat tissue. When men have low testosterone, it can result in fat gain, and for most men, that gain happens around the belly and hips. Sometimes, the imbalance of testosterone and estrogen can cause men to hold onto more body fat than they would otherwise.
Loss of mental clarity and difficulty concentrating
Studies have shown that men who take testosterone tend to experience an increase in memory. Testosterone affects many physical processes in the body, and focus, clarity, and memory are no exception. Life issues caused by low testosterone- such as stress and relationship issues- can also play a role in the struggle to focus.
Loss of libido
While most men experience a decrease in interest and libido as they age, low testosterone causes a steeper drop-off than what is normal for most men. testosterone can cause various health issues (such as hair loss and erectile dysfunction) that may also inhibit certain desires.
Loss of muscle mass
Since testosterone is key for building muscle, low testosterone can cause loss of muscle mass. This loss of mass can also add to fat gain, as previously mentioned.
Increased hair loss
Some men begin to lose hair as they age, and low testosterone can also play a role, especially if the balding occurs suddenly.
Depression, irritability, or anxiety
Low testosterone can result in several mood changes. Hormonal imbalances are often to blame for depression, anxiety, and other mood issues. Fatigue caused by low testosterone can also add to these issues.
Benefits of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)
By treating the symptoms of low testosterone, patients feel energized, stronger, and less irritable; enjoy more productive sleep and a renewed sense of self; find it easier to concentrate and remember, and experience an increase in libido.
