Robert Herbst AP, DO, Dipl. OM is excited to introduce our new Functional Wellness Testing program—an in-depth evaluation of your digestive system, nutrient status, detoxification pathways, and hormone balance.

This program includes detailed lab analyses, an in-person (or virtual) consultation, and personalized recommendations so you can take charge of your health with confidence. Our goal is to look beyond the symptoms and determine the root causes of your health concerns, empowering you to make informed decisions about diet, lifestyle, and natural treatments.

What Is Functional Wellness Testing?

Functional Wellness Testing goes beyond standard lab work to identify areas of imbalance or deficiency that can affect your overall well-being. Through advanced diagnostic technologies and lab panels, we assess key areas essential for optimal health:

Digestive Strength (Microbiome Viability)

  • Evaluates the balance of beneficial gut bacteria
  • Assesses possible overgrowths or imbalances
  • Helps us pinpoint the causes of digestive discomfort, bloating, or irregular bowel movements

Micronutrient (Vitamin & Mineral) Deficiencies

  • Examines levels of critical vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
  • Identifies any subtle deficiencies that might contribute to fatigue, weakened immunity, or other nagging health issues

Liver Detoxifying Prowess

  • Measures how effectively your liver processes and eliminates toxins
  • Helps us tailor protocols to support natural detoxification and boost metabolic function

Male & Female Hormone Analysis

  • Investigates hormonal imbalances that could be influencing mood, energy, sleep, and reproductive health
  • Offers valuable insights into adrenal function, thyroid support, and overall endocrine wellness

How Our Program Works

Initial Consultation and Evaluation
You will meet with one of our practitioners, either in person or via telehealth, for a detailed consultation. We’ll review your health history, discuss your main health goals, and determine which lab panels best align with your needs. This step ensures a personalized approach—no “one-size-fits-all” here.

Test Overviews
Once the testing is finalized, we’ll give you clear instructions on how to complete each lab test—some may be done through blood draws or at-home kits. Our team will guide you every step of the way, ensuring the process is streamlined and convenient.

Follow-Up and Test Interpretation
After we receive your results, you’ll schedule a follow-up appointment to review your comprehensive wellness report. During this session, we’ll explain each finding in plain language, addressing any questions you may have. This thorough interpretation of your data is crucial to understanding your current state of health.

Customized Treatment Plan
Based on your test results, we’ll craft a personalized treatment plan incorporating recommendations that may include nutritional support, supplement recommendations, dietary guidelines, herbal remedies, lifestyle modifications, and even acupuncture treatments. By focusing on the root causes identified in your lab work, we aim to restore balance, boost immunity, and optimize vitality.
