What Is Peptide Therapy?

Peptide therapy uses specific signalling molecules to target key systems in the body, including:

Cellular repair and regeneration Metabolism and fat loss Hormone regulation Immune system function Cognitive performance Inflammation and recovery

Unlike medications that override physiology, peptides work by enhancing natural biological pathways.

What Can Peptide Therapy Help With?

Peptide therapy may be recommended as part of a comprehensive plan for:

Recovery & Regeneration

Injury recovery (muscle, tendon, ligament) Post-workout recovery Chronic pain or inflammation

Often combined with PRP injections to support tissue healing.

Metabolism & Body Composition

Weight loss resistance Insulin sensitivity Energy and mitochondrial function

May be supported alongside IV nutrient therapy for metabolic optimization.

Hormones & Aging

Perimenopause and menopause support Low libido or hormonal imbalance Skin aging and collagen support

Integrated with hormone support programs for full-system balance.

Cognitive & Nervous System Support

Brain fog Sleep disruption Stress resilience

Common Peptides Used

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound)

BPC-157 is one of the most commonly used peptides in clinical practice for healing and recovery support.

It may support:

Tendon and ligament healing Muscle recovery Gut lining integrity Reduction in inflammation

BPC-157 is often used in patients with:

Chronic injuries Overuse or athletic strain Digestive inflammation

At Bay Wellness, BPC-157 is prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, not as a standalone solution.
