Uncovering the Root Cause

How Testing Can Reveal Hidden Answers to Your Stress & Anxiety

Your body is always communicating – through energy crashes, sleepless nights, or that constant feeling of overwhelm. Functional testing acts like a translator, helping us decode these signals. Unlike standard lab tests that only provide a blood snapshot and just check if you’re “within the normal range,” these tests dig deeper to:
 
  • Spot hidden imbalances your body is struggling with
  • Connect the dots between your symptoms, diet, and lifestyle
  • Show how stress has impacted your body over time

Think of it like a personalized detective kit for your health.

Why TestING?

If you’ve tried countless strategies for stress or anxiety but still feel stuck, testing helps:
 
🌱 See the invisible: Find imbalances you can’t feel yet
 
🌱 Skip the guessing: Let science guide your plan
 
🌱 Save time: Focus on what your body needs most

Functional Testing incorporated in my practice

Stress Hormone Mapping

Tracks Cortisol (your “stress hormone”) pattern throughout the day and adrenal resilience. It reveals if your body is stuck in “fight-or-flight” mode or struggling to recover.

Gut Health Checkup

Identifies gut bacterial imbalances, parasites, and gut inflammation. Your gut and brain are directly connected: gut imbalances can drive anxiety, brain fog, and low mood (70% of serotonin - your “happy hormone” - is made in the gut!).

Nutrient Gap Analysis

Detects key nutrient deficiencies (Vitamin B12, magnesium, zinc, etc.) critical for mood and energy. Stress depletes nutrients: low levels mean poor focus and increased anxiety.

Food Sensitivity Screening

Hidden reactions to foods that might be fueling inflammation, fatigue and brain fog - even "healthy" foods could be stressing your body silently. Eliminating trigger foods can reduce inflammation, boost energy and improve mental clarity.

Genetic Insights

It shows how your genes affect stress resilience and detox Useful to tailor supplements and lifestyle changes to your unique biology and explains why some strategies work for others but not you.
