🔬 Functional Lab Testing for Deeper Insight
We use advanced, at-home lab testing to take the guesswork out of your health. Does your provider say you are fine - yet you still don’t feel well?
These tests can help us find the why behind your symptoms—so we can create a plan that actually works.
We currently offer:
Stool Testing – to uncover gut imbalances like parasites, bacteria, yeast, leaky gut, or inflammation
Food Sensitivity Testing – to identify foods that are triggering inflammation, digestive issues, or fatigue
Hormone Testing – to evaluate cortisol (stress hormone), estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA levels
Nutrient Testing – to pinpoint vitamin and mineral deficiencies that might be impacting your mood, energy, or immune system
These tests can help address issues such as:
Bloating, gas, constipation, or IBS symptoms
Food sensitivities and unexplained fatigue
Male & Female hormonal imbalances (PMS, low libido, hot flashes, mood swings, or irregular cycles)
Low energy, brain fog, or chronic stress
Stubborn weight gain or difficulty losing weight despite eating "healthy"
Skin issues like acne or eczema that may be linked to internal imbalances
Anxiety, irritability, or feeling “off” with no clear reason
