How specialized lab testing can help you
Typical lab tests look at the basics, but sometimes there is a lot more that your body can tell you. That’s why you need lab tests that dig deeper.
We use specialized lab tests to get to the cause of your symptoms so you can feel better.
How does functional medicine lab testing differ from traditional blood work?
When a traditional physician runs standard blood work, they are looking for an already established disease process. Typically, action is taken only when the lab results are out of the “normal” range. The trouble with this is many people might not have an actual disease yet, but they are suffering from symptoms. Why wait until damage has been done? Functional medicine lab testing is geared to prevent disease before it happens by assessing patterns of imbalance that without intervention could result in chronic illness.
Our most popular tests are listed below. Many others are available such as thyroid panels, food sensitivity panels, mold and mycotoxin panels, and more!
Organic Acid Test by Mosaic Diagnostics
The Organic Acids Test (OAT) offers a comprehensive metabolic snapshot of a patient’s overall health with over 70 markers. It provides an accurate evaluation of intestinal yeast and bacteria. Abnormally high levels of these microorganisms can cause or worsen behavior disorders, hyperactivity, movement disorders, fatigue and immune function. Many people with chronic illnesses and neurological disorders often excrete several abnormal organic acids in their urine. The cause of these high levels could include oral antibiotic use, high sugar diets, immune deficiencies, acquired infections, as well as genetic factors.
The Organic Acids Test also includes markers for vitamin and mineral levels, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter levels, and is the only OAT to include markers for oxalates, which are highly correlated with many chronic illnesses.
Comprehensive Stool Analysis by Mosaic Diagnostics
Assessing gut function is a pillar of all function health programs. This test looks for markers of inflammation and malabsorption making it an essential test for those with IBS, inflammatory bowel disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autoimmune issues and weight problems. The test also evaluates beneficial bacteria levels, intestinal immune function, and overall intestinal health.
Metals Hair Analysis Test by Mosaic Diagnostics
This test reveals your mineral deficiencies and heavy metal toxicity. It can also provide a blueprint to increase your performance, banish brain fog, and improve energy. Hair mineral analysis reveals and explains the causes of many health symptoms and disease, whose underlying causes are largely related to nutritional deficiencies, mineral imbalances and heavy metal and chemical toxicity.
DUTCH hormone test by Precision Analytical
This test is the gold standard when it comes to hormone testing. It gives a detailed look into sex and adrenal hormones and their metabolites. It also includes the daily, free cortisol pattern, organic acids, melatonin (6‑OHMS), and 8‑OHdG.

Rockets
Our “IV Rockets” are the perfect blend of IV Therapy and Injections. An IV is established, but instead of getting nutrients through a bag of fluids and electrolytes, you receive them through a large syringe where our nurse slowly injects the nutrients intravenously. This is the perfect solution for those wanting several nutrients but not wanting to get several shots. The process takes about 15 minutes and is a great way to maintain your nutrition regimen for less time and money.
