How recovery peptides work
Growth-hormone-releasing peptides support deeper sleep and overnight repair — where muscle is actually built. Repair-oriented peptides are used to support tendons, ligaments, and connective tissue under load. The result many patients report: less lingering soreness and steadier training progress.
Dr. Lioce works with athletes at every level, combining peptides with regenerative treatments like PRP and prolotherapy when injuries need direct attention.
Best for
- Lifters and endurance athletes with slowing recovery
- Adults 35+ losing lean mass despite training
- Nagging tendon and joint issues
- Post-injury return to training
