Functional Testing

Naturopathy is about discovering the true state of your body and uncovering the underlying causes of your symptoms. Functional testing serves as an effective tool to assess your current well-being, providing valuable insights into your body's functions and aiding in the identification of root causes for your symptoms. At Natalie Hume – Naturopath we use functional testing to gain a deeper understanding of your health and address symptoms at their source.

Functional tests are done through independent laboratories and we review in your consultations what tests may be appropriate for you.

Some common tests that can be ordered are:

  • Microbiome stool analysis

  • Hair 500+ food compatibility

  • DUTCH complete test – hormones and adrenal profile

  • Salivary hormone profile

  • Cortisol Awakening Response

  • Thyroid profile

  • SIBO breath tests

Maximize the value of your initial appointment by sending us any recent blood tests, pathology results, or other specialist reports in advance.
We'll review them together during your appointment for a comprehensive analysis.

Additionally, we highly recommend annual blood tests through your doctor to ensure ongoing health and wellness. Take proactive steps towards a healthier you.
