Functional Testing

Functional testing looks deeper than standard tests to uncover what’s driving your symptoms. The real value lies in choosing the right test and expert interpretation - understanding what the results mean for you or your child.

It can be especially helpful for:

  • Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, autoimmune conditions

  • IBS, bloating, digestive discomfort

  • Acne, eczema, psoriasis

  • Fatigue, low mood, brain fog

  • Food reactions, histamine intolerance

  • Low immunity or frequent infections

  • Joint pain or chronic inflammation

Using targeted testing, we can create a clear, personalised plan that supports long-term health. If you have a test in mind, just ask - I can guide you on what’s truly helpful.
