Functional lab testing provides the most comprehensive picture of your child's biological landscape.
Most standard pediatric panels check a narrow set of markers — enough to rule out obvious illness, but not enough to explain why a child struggles to focus, regulate, sleep, or connect. The tests we use go considerably further.
Systems we can measure precisely, from home:
This level of detail is what makes a genuinely personalized support plan possible — and what separates functional testing from standard testing.
All tests are completed from the comfort of home. We manage the entire process, from ordering and delivery to sample collection and helping you understand what the results mean.
Simple sample collection. No clinic visits required.
We manage ordering, delivery, and interpretation.
Only the most relevant tests are recommended.
Findings directly inform your child's support plan.
We work with two internationally recognized laboratories: Vibrant Wellness (USA) and Nordic Laboratories (Denmark).
Only a few tests will be recommended based on careful assessment during your intake consultation.
A first-morning urine test measuring 50+ metabolic markers to reveal how your child's body is functioning at a cellular level — including gut microbiome balance, yeast and bacterial overgrowth, mitochondrial energy production, neurotransmitter metabolism, and detoxification capacity.
A urine test detecting harmful chemical exposures children encounter daily through food, water, air, and household products — including pesticides, plastics, mold toxins, and industrial pollutants.
A stool and urine test measuring 300+ markers across gut health, inflammation, pathogens, intestinal permeability, and neurotransmitter production — revealing how your child's gut is directly shaping their brain, behaviour, and mood.
A urine and saliva test mapping sex hormones, adrenal hormones, daily cortisol rhythm, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, oxidative stress, and bone turnover — giving a complete picture of how hormones are produced, metabolised, and cleared.
A blood test measuring immune antibodies against brain structures, nerve tissue, and the blood-brain barrier — helping identify whether neuroinflammation or immune reactivity may be contributing to symptoms of brain fog, mood instability, sensory sensitivity, aggression, or cognitive difficulties.
A blood and urine test assessing 20 heavy metals — including lead, mercury, arsenic, and aluminium — which can accumulate silently in the body and interfere with brain development, immune function, and behaviour.
Measures 70+ organic acid markers for gut health, metabolic function, detoxification, and nutrient status — often the best starting point for understanding your child's biological picture.
A single urine sample combining three tests — metabolic assessment via the OAT, screening of 172 non-metal toxic chemicals including pesticides, phthalates and solvents, plus glyphosate — giving a comprehensive picture of toxic burden and its impact on metabolism.
A precision stool test using DNA-based qPCR technology to identify pathogenic bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites with exceptional accuracy — plus immune and digestive markers, and zonulin as a key indicator of intestinal permeability linked to inflammation and gluten sensitivity.
A urine test screening 11 mycotoxins from 40 species of mold — detecting hidden exposure from contaminated food, water-damaged buildings, and indoor environments that can drive neurological symptoms, fatigue, hormonal disruption, and chronic inflammation.
A non-invasive hair test providing a long-term picture of toxic metal burden and mineral balance. Because hair acts as an excretory tissue, it can reflect chronic exposure to mercury, lead, arsenic, and aluminium — offering a different window to blood or urine testing rather than a replacement for it.
A simple dried blood spot test identifying delayed food sensitivities — where symptoms can appear hours or even days after eating — alongside Candida overgrowth, which can disrupt the gut lining, drive immune activation, and worsen behavioural and digestive symptoms.
A urine test going beyond simple neurotransmitter levels to assess how serotonin, dopamine, GABA, norepinephrine and others are actually produced and broken down — providing a detailed picture of neurochemical function that can explain mood instability, poor focus, sleep difficulties, anxiety, and challenging behaviour.
A saliva test collecting four samples throughout the day to map sex hormones (oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA) and the daily cortisol rhythm — particularly useful for parents and teenagers experiencing fatigue, mood changes, poor sleep, or stress-related hormonal disruption.
A bloodspot test taken on days 19-21 of the menstrual cycle to assess sex hormones, stress hormones, and thyroid markers during the luteal phase — identifying patterns such as low progesterone, hormonal imbalance, thyroid dysfunction, and chronic stress that may be interfering with fertility.
Tests your home drinking water for 17 toxic elements — including lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, and chromium — plus fluoride and pH, using the same ICP-MS technology used by EPA-certified labs. Lead in particular poses the greatest risk to infants and young children, and levels at the tap can be significantly higher than at the source.
A finger prick blood test measuring 24 individual fatty acids — including the Omega-3 Index, EPA/DHA levels, omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, and trans fat index — revealing inflammation patterns and dietary fat quality at a cellular level, with direct implications for brain function, mood, and immune health.
A dried blood spot genetic test for women planning or already in pregnancy — analysing key biological pathways including methylation, detoxification, inflammation, and vitamin D to provide personalised diet, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations that support a healthier pregnancy and the best possible start for baby.
I can help you understand which tests make the most sense for your child.
