PEPTIDE THERAPY

At Sage Healing Collective, we believe that sustainable weight management and long-term health optimization require more than a single solution. Our approach blends advanced peptide therapy with intentional lifestyle changes—supporting the body’s natural ability to regulate metabolism, repair tissues, balance hormones, and age well.

Peptide therapy offers a powerful, personalized way to enhance healing, improve metabolic function, and support preventative care. While GLP-1 peptides play an important role in weight management, they are just one part of a broader peptide landscape designed to optimize health at every stage of life.

GLP-1 Peptide Therapy for Weight Loss

Semaglutide & Tirzepatide

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) peptide therapy has transformed the way we approach weight loss and metabolic health. Peptides such as semaglutide and tirzepatide work by mimicking naturally occurring hormones that regulate appetite, blood sugar, and insulin sensitivity.

These therapies help:

  • Reduce hunger and food noise

  • Increase feelings of fullness

  • Improve glucose metabolism and insulin response

  • Support steady, sustainable weight loss

When thoughtfully integrated into a lifestyle-based program, GLP-1 therapies create a strong physiological foundation for lasting change—especially for individuals navigating obesity, insulin resistance, or metabolic imbalance.

Beyond Weight Loss: Peptides for Longevity, Optimization & Preventative Care

In addition to GLP-1 support, Sage offers targeted peptides designed to enhance cellular health, recovery, and resilience. Depending on your goals, peptide therapy may support:

  • Longevity & cellular repair

  • Improved energy, cognition, and focus

  • Muscle recovery and physical performance

  • Immune system regulation

  • Healthy aging and inflammation balance

These peptides work at a cellular level to improve communication within the body—helping optimize how you move, recover, think, and feel over time. Peptide therapy is often used proactively to support prevention, vitality, and overall quality of life.

A Holistic, Lifestyle-Integrated Approach

Peptide therapy should never be used in isolation. Our practitioners collaborate with you to create a personalized, whole-person plan that includes:

  • Nutritional guidance and metabolic support

  • Mindful movement and strength-building practices

  • Sleep, stress, and nervous system regulation

  • Long-term habit formation for sustainable health

By combining medical innovation with lifestyle, we help make healthy routines more achievable and effective—supporting progress that lasts well beyond the scale.

Whether your goals include weight management, metabolic balance, improved vitality, or proactive aging support, Sage is here to guide you with expertise, compassion, and intention.

Experience peptide therapy as a tool for transformation—supporting not just weight loss, but lifelong health optimization.


the process


STEP ONE : BLOODWORK 

In order to determine if you are a candidate for peptide therapy, we need laboratory information and your intake forms.  We will evaluate your information prior to your consultation to determine which peptide(s) can help you live a healthier life. PLEASE NOTE: It takes 10-14 days for lab results to be completed.

OPTIONS FOR BLOODWORK:

  1. Make a BLOOD DRAW ONLY appointment at Sage with Dr. Amanda. This appointment is best done in the morning hours and YOU MUST BE FASTED. If you take Thyroid Medications you should take that in the morning on an empty stomach and then schedule blood draw 4-5 hours after taking meds.

  2. Previous labs done within 3 months are acceptable. If you are missing any lab tests from the list below, schedule a BLOOD DRAW ONLY appointment for Dr Amanda to run any missing labs. Please send lab reports to medical@sagehealingcollective.com or fax 331.214.8087.

  3. You can get labs done by your primary doctor. If your primary doctor does not run all labs listed below, schedule a BLOOD DRAW ONLY appointment for Dr Amanda to run any missing labs.

  4. If you would like to use your health insurance for lab work, email Dr Amanda at medical@sagehealingcollective.com for a script to take to a local draw center. Please note the cost of labs done at a draw center maybe 3-4x greater than the cash prices listed at Sage Healing Collective.
