What Are Peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that occur naturally in the body. Think of them as messengers—tiny chemical signals that tell your cells what to do, whether that’s repairing an injury, building muscle, or improving metabolism.
When introduced through therapy, peptides activate your body’s own healing and restorative functions, working at a cellular level to help you recover, regenerate, and feel your best.
At Austin Physical Therapy, we use naturally sourced, third-party tested peptides from our U.S.-based supplier, Cellular Peptide. Each product is free of synthetic additives and formulated for maximum purity, stability, and effectiveness.

How Peptides Work
When peptides enter the body, they bind to specific receptors that trigger natural processes—like turning on a “healing switch.”
This helps the body:
- Rebuild tissue faster after injury or surgery
- Reduce inflammation and pain
- Support better recovery between workouts
- Restore hormonal balance and energy levels
- Improve mental clarity and focus
