Testing Offered
The Vitality Reset Package includes the HTMA test. All other testing is available at my discounted practitioner price (HSA/FSA eligible!), and may be suggested as part of your support plan.
Bio-Resonance Testing
Did you know that your body is made up of measurable energy? Testing for bioenergy falls into the holistic health realm and requires a bioresonance test. While this is not a diagnostic tool to be confused with any type of western medicine testing, we are able to test stressed systems of the body.
Through this non-invasive testing process, we have the ability to create a detailed report from the energetic resonance that emanates from hair and saliva samples.
Each bioenergetic scan identifies your resonating toxins, hormonal and nutritional imbalances, and environmental and food sensitivities.

OAT (Organic Acids Testing)
The Organic Acids Test (OAT) offers a comprehensive metabolic snapshot of a patient’s overall health with 76 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.
Adrenal Stress Index (Cortisol Testing)
This is my favorite at-home test that accurately measures your daily cortisol rhythms. This is very helpful in getting a good picture of your adrenal gland health and how your stress hormones are affecting your moods.
Adrenal Stress Index can be helpful if you experience:
Chronic stress and stress-related health conditions
Fatigue or lack of energy
Anxiety or depression
Irritability or mood swings
Insomnia, sleep disturbances or difficulty waking
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis
Trace minerals are essential in countless metabolic functions in all phases of the life process.
-Zinc is involved in the production, storage and secretion of insulin and is necessary for growth hormones.
-Magnesium is required for normal muscular function, especially the heart. A deficiency has been associated with an increased incidence of abnormal heart conditions, anxiety and nervousness.
-Potassium is critical for normal nutrient transport into the cell. A deficiency can result in muscular weakness, mild depression and lethargy.
At-Home Stool Test
The GI-MAP was designed to detect microbes that may be disturbing normal microbial balance or contributing to illness as well as indicators of digestion, absorption, inflammation, and immune function.
Some conditions that warrant testing are:
IBS/IBD
Digestive complaints, diarrhea or constipation
Brain fog
Skin problems, like acne and psoriasis
Mood disorders, depression, and anxiety

Comprehensive Blood Chemistry
Functional medicine relies on a much more narrow margin for blood-work markers. This more narrow range helps us to prevent and ‘catch’ trending patterns, to keep you in OPTIMAL health, not just getting by.
If a doctor has ever told you that your blood-work looks normal, but you feel FAR from normal, functional blood-work is the best place to start. You can easily get this blood-work done at any LabCorp near you.

Female Hormone Testing
This is a month-long saliva home-test. This is an incredibly valuable test when it comes to understanding your cycle and discovering which hormones are imbalanced. It shows us the unique rhythms of your estrogen, progesterone, FSH, LH, testosterone and DHEA.
This test is useful when experiencing:
Premenstrual syndrome (mood changes, breast tenderness, water retention, uterine cramping)
Irregular or painful periods
Low libido
Facial hair growth
Acne
Migraines
