FAQs
What are functional lab tests?
Functional lab tests are specialized assessments that evaluate how well your body systems are functioning. Unlike standard tests that look for disease, these focus on imbalances in hormones, nutrients, digestion, and inflammation that can impact your health and wellness.
How are functional lab tests different from routine blood work?
Routine blood work often screens for specific diseases or obvious abnormalities. Functional tests dig deeper to identify subtle dysfunctions that don’t always show up in traditional labs, offering a more holistic picture of your health.
Will the testing be uncomfortable or invasive?
Most functional tests involve simple blood draws, urine samples, or saliva collection. They’re minimally invasive and designed to be as comfortable and convenient as possible.
How soon will I get my results and what happens next?
Results typically come back within a few days to a couple of weeks. Then, our team will review them with you, explain what they mean, and develop a customized plan including treatments, supplements, or lifestyle adjustments.
Can functional lab tests help with skin and aesthetic concerns?
Absolutely. Many skin issues stem from internal imbalances like hormonal shifts or inflammation. Functional testing helps identify these underlying causes so we can address them alongside your aesthetic treatments for more lasting results.
