Functional Testing
Functional Testing
Functional testing allows us an insight into the functioning of your body's systems, rather than just a marker of disease such as in conventional medicine.
​
Your testing results allow us to develop an holistic plan to address the cause of your symptoms, be that stress, menopause, thyroid dysfunction, menstrual disturbances, gastrointestinal distress or metabolism of foods. A full range of practitioner only supplements are also available for purchase to compliment your individual plan.
​
Testing services available include:
​
-
CarbChoice AMY1 - a genetic profile identifying how your body tolerates and metabolises carbohydrates.
-
DUTCH Test (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) - advanced hormone testing offering the most extensive profile of sex and adrenal hormones. Your results allow us to address any underlying hormonal issues that may be impacting on your wellbeing.
-
SIBO Test - a simple, at home breath test to diagnose small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. If you suffer from excess gas, belching, diarrhoea or constipation, bloating, food intolerances, nutrient deficiencies or brain fog, this test could be for you.

A range of tests are available depending on your requirements.
