What is functional testing?

Struggling to get answers?  Frustrated?  You are not alone.  Functional testing allows us to take a close look at how well your body is actually working, not just whether your results fall within a “normal” range. It focuses on the body’s key functions to see where things might be struggling or out of balance.

 

Testing helps to uncover what’s really going on beneath your symptoms - providing measurable data and deeper insights that standard tests often miss. For those struggling with ongoing or complex health issues, these tests can be a game-changer.

​

It is also an excellent option for those wanting a health MOT.  Unlike standard medical tests that often focus on diagnosing disease once it’s already present, functional testing takes a more proactive approach.  By highlighting sub-optimal patterns before they develop into bigger health concerns, functional testing supports prevention, personalised nutrition, and a focus on achieving optimal health rather than waiting to treat illness.

​

By identifying the root causes of symptoms, we can create a precise, targeted plan to support your body’s unique needs, rather than relying on guesswork. This approach gives clarity, speeds up progress, reduces frustration, and helps you see clear, evidence-based improvements in your health and wellbeing.

​

Tests I find useful include:

  • Comprehensive blood panels

  • Stool analysis

  • Thyroid function

  • Hormones

  • Myco-toxins

  • Genetic profiling 

 

Tests are interpreted and translated into practical, personalised nutrition and lifestyle guidance.  Tests are optional and priced separately.
