How can I get started?
Begin with a free 15-minute phone consultation to discuss your health concerns. Based on this, your practitioner may recommend labs, supplements, or a more in-depth 45-minute consultation ($89) for personalized guidance.
Does it take time for my body to heal?
It’s important to remember that healing takes time. Your body needs the opportunity to repair and rebuild, and that’s not something that happens overnight. Think of it like recovering from an injury—it requires patience, consistency, and adjustments along the way. For example, it takes your body approximately six months for your vitamin D levels to achieve optimal levels.
That’s why we recommend our 6-month coaching package that includes monthly 30-minute check-ins. This approach provides the following benefits:
- Sufficient Time for Healing: Six months allows for a more gradual and sustainable healing process, giving your body the space it needs to recover without rushing.
- Personalized Adjustments: The monthly check-ins allow us to monitor your progress, address any challenges, and adjust your protocol as needed based on your individual journey.
- Ongoing Support and Accountability: Having regular contact with a coach helps you stay motivated, accountable, and committed to your healing goals.
- Sustainable Lifestyle Changes: Instead of quick fixes, we focus on building sustainable habits and lifestyle changes that support long-term well-being.

Functional Medicine Lab Testing:
For a deeper dive into your health, we also offer specialized functional medicine lab testing.

To explore functional medicine testing, please schedule a consultation with us so we can discuss your individual needs and recommend the most appropriate tests.
Conventional bloodwork vs. functional medicine labs
Imagine your body is a car. Conventional bloodwork is like checking the engine light – it tells you when something is clearly wrong. Functional medicine lab testing is like a comprehensive inspection – it looks for subtle signs of wear and tear, potential issues, and areas for optimization, even if the car seems to be running fine.
Functional Medicine Lab Testnig
What is an Organic Acid Test (OAT)?
Uncover the root cause of feeling unwell with the Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test. This comprehensive at-home lab analyzes 75+ biomarkers to assess your gut health, including yeast and bacteria balance, vitamin deficiencies, and metabolic markers. Imbalances can cause fatigue, inflammation, skin issues, mood swings, and more. Gain valuable insights into your overall health with this ‘go-to’ test!
What is a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA)?
Discover how mineral imbalances and heavy metal toxicity may be impacting your health with the Mineral & Metals Test. This simple hair analysis provides insights into essential mineral levels and reveals exposure to common toxins like arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury. Identifying these imbalances early can help address potential health issues and support overall well-being.
What is an Omega 3 test?
Inflammation can be the hidden cause of many health problems, from joint pain and fatigue to heart disease. The Omega-3 & 6 Test helps identify imbalances in these essential fatty acids, which play a crucial role in managing inflammation. By understanding your levels, you can take proactive steps to reduce inflammation and improve your overall health.
What is a Food Sensitivity (FS) test?
Having an IgG food sensitivity is very different from having a food allergy. Where food allergy tests look for severe, life-threatening, or immediate food reactions, an IgG food sensitivity test looks for foods that may be causing hidden immune reactions 24-72 hours after eating. If you’re experiencing persistent health issues, it may be due to ongoing food sensitivities that, when left unaddressed, can lead to unbalanced inflammation. By learning which common foods you have an IgG sensitivity to, you can eliminate these foods from your diet. Your body will be better equipped to function and by decreasing potential inflammation, numerous bodily systems will work more effectively. This test will provide an in-depth glance at 190 common food sensitivities as well as provide a snapshot of potential yeast and candida so you can make crucial adjustments to your diet and alleviate challenging symptoms.
What is a Stool Test (ST)?
