Prior to your 60-minute appointment, I will spend anywhere from 2-5 hours analyzing your personal results and researching your health to tailor make a diet, supplement, and lifestyle approach that will help you get the best results possible! ​

Our 60-minute appointment will take place roughly 1-2 weeks after we receive your results .

• We usually schedule our appointments for ~3-4 weeks after you mail in your results to give us plenty of time to analyze your test & create your protocol. We do not typically schedule your 60-minute appointment until we know the test is in the mail on the way to the lab. ​

During our 60-minute appointment we will go through your results with you, explain to you what they mean, review the protocol that we have created for you, and recommend the supplements for your protocol at a 15% discount. 

I do not recommend taking the DUTCH test while on hormonal birth control, since it is suppressing your body's natural hormones and you will not receive the most accurate results. It is a great test to take when coming off of hormonal birth control to see how your natural hormones are recovering after being on hormonal birth control. ​

Yes! The DUTCH test can actually show us if your hormone replacement therapy is an effective treatment for you. ​

We focus on a natural approach to a healthy lifestyle as much as possible. In rare occassions we will need to call in the "big guns" of Western Medicine, but typically we can make loads of improvements (without the harsh side effects) utilizing natural supplements to help fill in the gaps of your diet. Unfortunately, we just cannot get everything we need in through food alone (especially considering how depleted our soil is) and supplements can help manipulate our health and even our hormones in a much more natural way.​

Absolutely! Depending on your insurance coverage or your budget, we can schedule our follow-ups as needed. Typical follow-ups are anywhere from 30-60 minutes and are heavily focused on your food intake + lifestyle, though we can alter follow-ups to discuss whatever your needs are in the moment.​

Typical blood tests do not measure cortisol and sex hormone metabolites. Metabolized cortisol accounts for about 80% of total cortisol output, meaning the free cortisol measured in the other tests doesn’t give us the full picture. Examining metabolized sex hormones shows us exactly how we’re clearing estrogen from our bodies and which types of estrogen we’re making, which can in turn tell us how at-risk we are for certain estrogen-dependent cancers or if we might have the MTHFR gene mutation. Additionally, saliva tests cannot decipher between low, normal, and high levels of estrogen.​

Insurance companies will only cover certain tests that typically tend to be inefficient or outdated. You could say that the science is moving a lot faster than the insurance companies can keep up with. We can provide you a "super bill" for the cost of the test that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.  ​​
