REGENERUS testing options
Advanced Practitioner Only Testing
I offer access to a wide range of advanced testing through Regenerus Labs, using specialist laboratories in the UK and internationally.
Testing can provide additional information where standard investigations do not fully explain symptoms, or where a more detailed picture is needed to guide nutritional and lifestyle support.
Tests are selected on an individual basis following consultation.
Some tests can be ordered without ongoing work with me, where appropriate, but all tests include interpretation and analysis. I will discuss which test, if any, is appropriate for your symptoms, health history and goals.

Choosing the right test
Advanced testing can be particularly useful when symptoms are persistent, complex or not fully explained by standard investigations. However, more testing isn't always better. The most appropriate test depends on your symptoms, medical history, existing results and what we are trying to find out.
I will explain the purpose, limitations and practicalities of any testing recommended before you decide whether to proceed.
