Have your most recent blood test results shown as 'normal,' but you feel anything but normal? Are you stuck in a loop of testing with no conclusive answers about what might be wrong? This is where functional testing can provide more insights. Unlike standard NHS testing, functional testing tells us HOW your body is functioning, and is more comprehensive.

Functional testing provides a snapshot of how your body is functioning. This information is crucial for me to identify and either confirm or eliminate the root causes of your symptoms. It is a useful tool, where applicable, that provides us with valuable insights into your health. Think of it as a personalised health investigation that helps us understand your unique needs. This testing guides us in creating a tailored plan to help you feel healthier and more energetic.

After discussion with her clients, Esther will arrange for testing kits to be made available to the client and she will manage the process of obtaining and delivering feedback on the results during a scheduled appointment. The test evaluation is carried out by accredited, industry-recognised laboratories in the UK. These tests involve the analysis of samples such as saliva, blood, urine, or stool. The results help create a highly personalised, and targeted nutrition and lifestyle plan.
