Peptides are short chains of amino acids, often called the “building blocks” of proteins.
In your body, they act like tiny messenger molecules, telling cells what to do—repair tissue, burn fat, calm inflammation, balance hormones, and more.
Because they’re so targeted and natural-feeling to the body, peptides can often support health with fewer side effects than many traditional medications.
Peptide therapy works by using short chains of amino acids—natural “messenger molecules”—that bind to specific receptors in the body and activate targeted biological pathways that support healing, metabolism, energy, immune function, and cellular repair. Because these peptides mimic the body’s own signaling compounds, they enhance or restore normal physiological processes with exceptional precision, helping optimize recovery, reduce inflammation, improve weight loss and hormonal balance, and boost overall wellness with minimal side effects.
Modern life creates a constant load on the body—poor sleep, stress, toxins, and chronic inflammation can quietly damage cells over time. Peptides can help by:
They’re often used alongside lifestyle changes, nutrition, and other therapies (such as IV hydration, NAD⁺, or ketamine-assisted mental health treatment) for a comprehensive approach.

Ketamine is a medication originally developed as an anesthetic. In recent years, when used in lower, controlled doses under medical supervision, it has shown powerful benefits for mood, mental health, and pain — especially when other treatments fall short. At Lumina, we use ketamine IV therapy in a safe clinical setting, administered by our physician, to provide profound relief and long-lasting improvements.
Ketamine IV therapy may be considered for patients dealing with:
Consultation & Medical Oversight
Before starting therapy, you’ll undergo a comprehensive medical consultation. Our physician will review your health history, current medications, and mental health profile to confirm whether ketamine therapy is appropriate.
Comfortable, Private Environment
Ketamine IV infusions at Lumina happen in a quiet, comfortable setting — with soothing ambiance, supportive staff, and patient supervision throughout the session.
Personalized Protocol
We tailor the number and frequency of sessions to your individual needs. Some conditions may respond in just a few infusions, others might benefit from a full series plus maintenance doses.
Aftercare & Follow-Up
Post-infusion, we provide guidance on integration, self-care, and optional follow-up sessions. We monitor your response, side-effects, and overall progress.
Our mission is to deliver regenerative peptide therapies and ketamine infusions within a compassionate, clinically precise environment—empowering individuals to overcome mental-health challenges, optimize performance, and elevate whole-body wellness. We commit to excellence, safety, and personalized care for every patient we serve.
