Functional Medicine Testing

Picture
Test.  Don't Guess.

While conventional testing can give us a lot of very useful information in coming up with an accurate diagnosis as well as treatments, it does not always give us the full picture.

That is where functional medicine testing comes in.  This sort of testing is specialized and unique.  It's not something that you will find in your typical medical doctor's office.  Functional medical tests are not those that you would rely on in a life or death situation when you're in the emergency room.  They are not typically for acute conditions, used to rule out serious disease.

Rather, functional medicine tests are best applied to chronic diseases and prevention.  They are most useful in health promotion, not in ruling out acute conditions, but to figure out what the root cause of a long-term imbalance may be.  They help us to delve deeper, sometimes right down to the cellular level, so we can really figure out what is going on and how to fix it.

If you have been struggling with an annoying or debilitating health condition for some time, or have recently been diagnosed with one, or you just want to do your best to prevent yourself from ever being diagnosed with one, functional medical tests can give you that edge over your conventional blood and urine tests.

Please view the assortment of tests that we have available below for more information.  As always, if you have any questions or concerns about testing, please don't hesitate to contact us.


Please note that we are not affiliated with any specific functional medicine laboratories and any information provided on this page and links to further information on the specified laboratory tests are not us endorsing any specific companies, laboratories, or products.  We use many different labs and the choice of lab is dependent on each patient.  The labs linked to here are just some that we use.
