Gut Microbiome Testing

Each person’s body responds to different foods differently, and what you eat along with the supplements you take can cause your gut to thrive or struggle. Issues in the gut can include gas, bloating, diarrhea and the typical stomach issues you would think of, but gut health is also linked to mental health, skin issues and more. By learning what your gut needs to perform as intended, you can remove these issues and live a healthier life.

MicroNutrient Panel

The presence of different vitamins, minerals and other chemicals in the body can determine how well your immune system functions and how well you feel in general. This test can help determine where your levels of these vital substances are, and then we can make a plan to get them back to optimal levels if needed.

Complete Thyroid Panels

Thyroid issues can account for many ailments, and sometimes issues in the thyroid can be difficult to diagnose. If you’re feeling tired, weak, losing hair or just don’t feel like yourself, a complete thyroid test could help determine what’s wrong. We offer thyroid panels which check for any possible issue.

Food Sensitivity Testing

An intolerance or allergy to food might be impacting many areas of your life if you aren’t aware it exists. Food intolerance can present itself in many different ways, from intestinal issues from migraines, and a food sensitivity test can help determine which foods to avoid in order to feel your best.

Genetic Testing

The makeup of your DNA provides real insight into how your body works, and which diet and exercise plans will yield the best results for you. With this information, we can unlock the best wellness plan for your unique needs.

Hormone Panels

Hormone issues can impact people at any stage of life, and often include headaches, mood swings, weight gain and other frustrating symptoms. Luckily, there is relief available and a hormone test can help determine the right treatment plan.
