Functional Lab Testing in Springfield, MO
Take the Guesswork Out of Your Health
Why Functional Lab Testing Matters
Most traditional lab panels only scratch the surface. Our functional lab tests go deeper—looking at hormone balance, thyroid function, inflammation markers, gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and more. This allows us to:
-
Find issues before they become diagnoses
-
Track what’s working (and what’s not) in real time
-
Customize hormone, nutrition, and fitness protocols for long-term results
These tests are often the key to unlocking better sleep, more energy, and sustainable weight loss when everything else has failed.

Help & FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Testing is the foundation of everything we do. We know labs can feel intimidating or confusing, so here are some common questions we get about the process:
No—labs are ordered separately and customized to each patient. We’ll explain costs up front and help you choose the most relevant panels.
Standard labs check if you're in a general “normal” range. Functional testing looks deeper — identifying optimal ranges, patterns, and imbalances that affect how you feel, not just what’s “technically fine.”
Results typically take 5–7 business days. Once they’re in, we’ll schedule a follow-up to go over everything in detail.
Some tests require fasting (like glucose and insulin), but not all. We’ll give you clear instructions before your appointment.
Yes. We use functional lab testing to understand your hormone profile, so we can create a plan that works with your body, not against it.
We partner with trusted diagnostic labs and handle all coordination. Many tests can be done in-clinic or at a local lab near you.
Most functional testing is not covered by insurance, but many patients use HSA/FSA funds. We’ll explain costs upfront so there are no surprises.
