Functional testing
Being in control of your health starts with knowing how your body works. Testing helps determine if you're absorbing and using nutrients properly, if you are naturally deficient in crucial nutrients, or if your body is under more strain than you realise.
I use advanced functional and nutrigenomics testing from the leading laboratories worldwide to analyse biochemical markers that can help detect underlying health conditions before they fully develop or monitor the progression of any existing health issues.
Tests are optional and recommended only if they will inform your health plan effectively. I also review previous test results and medical records to build your profile, ensuring a tailored and thorough approach to your wellness.
