Peptide Therapy
Peptide therapy utilizes natural, effective, and non-invasive supplements to decrease inflammation, help with healing, promote weight loss, hair growth, and healing, and assist in anti-aging.


At Monarch Integrative Health we work with Peptides that are made up of Amino Acids
As such, we are proud to offer peptide therapy to our patients as a method of improving their overall health, wellness, and quality of life.
Peptides are the building blocks of proteins and are composed of amino acids that work to regulate a variety of biological functions and processes.
These naturally occurring peptides act as signaling molecules within the body and instruct other cells and molecules on what functions to perform.
There are over 7,000 known peptides
within the human body
There are over 7,000 known peptides within the human body and though some may be similar each is responsible for facilitating a different response and action within the body. Some common functions of peptides include providing pain relief, aiding in soft tissue repair, accelerating healing processes, promoting weight loss and lean muscle gain, reversing symptoms of sexual dysfunction, and improving hormone production and cognitive function.
The unique properties of peptides can be harnessed and used to treat specific conditions; this treatment process is known as peptide therapy.

I have met with Franca Gardner twice in the last 4 months and feel I made the right choice for a partner in my healing journey. Her evaluation was thorough and I felt she listened with both her heart and her bright mind. She provided written notes with a clear plan of action. I know the steps I need to take and I feel supported. She was quick to call me back when I had questions. I highly recommend Monarch Integrative Health and Franca Gardner for quality functional medicine.
Franca is AMAZING!!!! I left our last appointment feeling very confident that we’re on the right track. I haven’t felt like that in so long! My stomach hurts all the time, and I was starting to think I would have to just live with it. I am SO grateful for Franca’s expertise and commitment to helping me better my gut health.
Franca was exactly what I needed when my hormone issues were not being resolved with my general practitioner or OBGYN. I had been told countless times that I shouldn’t be having issues at my age and was put on birth control. Franca took the time to listen to me and let me choose which course of treatment I would like to pursue. Her knowledge and empathetic approach made me feel hopeful that I can get back to normal when I had lost faith in the medical field. Thank you!
