I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to feel off balance—whether it’s persistent fatigue, digestive troubles, unexplained mood shifts, or hormonal ups and downs. Sometimes, the answers aren’t obvious, and standard tests don’t tell the whole story. That’s why I offer advanced lab testing through Rupa Health to help uncover the hidden pieces of your health puzzle.
These tests give us a window into what’s really happening inside your body so we can work together to address the root causes and not just the symptoms.
Micronutrient Panel
Imagine finally knowing which vitamins and minerals your body is actually missing. Even if you eat well, subtle deficiencies can sneak in and quietly sap your energy, weaken your immune system, or throw your nervous system out of sync. This test measures the nutrients inside your cells—where the real action happens—and guides me in tailoring acupuncture, nutrition, and lifestyle plans just for you.
GI MAP (Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus)
Your gut is more than digestion—it’s central to your immunity, mood, and overall vitality. If you’ve been struggling with bloating, irregularity, or brain fog, the GI MAP can reveal hidden infections, imbalances, or inflammation lurking in your digestive tract. Knowing what’s going on inside your gut allows us to support it with precision, bringing relief and renewed balance.
DUTCH Test (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones)
Stress and hormones have a profound impact on how you feel day to day. The DUTCH test helps us see how your adrenal glands and sex hormones are functioning—giving insight into fatigue, anxiety, sleep issues, and hormonal changes. This information helps me customize your care so you can regain energy, mood stability, and harmony in your body’s rhythms.
If you’ve been feeling stuck or overwhelmed by symptoms that don’t quite add up, these tests can provide clarity and hope. They’re a way to empower you with knowledge and a more personalized path toward healing.
