Functional analysis of lab work differs significantly from conventional analysis that your physician would order and interpret. Functional lab work typically assesses entire systems, providing us insight how the body is working as a whole. Because of this, functional lab analysis allows us to assess and address the body much more holistically than most of the mainstream testing performed in the medical system.

Functional labs often analyze samples like stool, urine, hair, and sometimes blood to measure biomarkers that aren't typically measured by traditional lab work. We can also utilize blood work, though we assess it differently than conventional analysis by searching for and interpreting patterns instead of individual marker irregularities.

Unlike conventional lab work, conventional lab work and analysis is not diagnostic. Though functional lab analysis, we seek to understand the body as a whole, address imbalances, and prevent disease.

Below are more details of the functional lab work I utilize in my practice, along with estimated pricing for ordering lab work.

Please note that functional lab work is offered on a case-by-case basis to individuals who have been implementing the foundations of holistic wellness for an extended period of time.
