What Is Functional Bloodwork?

Functional bloodwork catches the imbalances, deficiencies, and dysfunction that make you feel terrible even if nothing shows up as alarming on a conventional panel.

At RISE in Queen Anne, Seattle, we run comprehensive functional lab work including bloodwork, saliva, urine, and stool testing to get a full understanding of how your body is functioning beneath the surface. 

These tests allow us to identify imbalances long before they become diagnoses and give us a detailed blueprint of your current health.

This is the difference between being told your labs are normal and actually knowing what is driving your symptoms.

What We Test and Why It Matters

Standard bloodwork often flags disease. Functional bloodwork looks at how well your systems are working before illness develops.

This testing allows us to assess:

With this information, we identify early imbalances and create proactive strategies to support energy, longevity, and long-term wellness.

Reproductive & Adrenal Hormone Testing

Assess stress resilience, energy, sleep disturbance, hormone imbalance, and get to the root of perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms.

Hormones influence how you feel, sleep, think, and move through your day. Using saliva and urine-based panels including the DUTCH test, we assess both reproductive and adrenal hormones to understand stress response, cycle health, and energy regulation.

This testing is especially helpful for:

By understanding how your hormones fluctuate throughout the day, we can support balance rather than override your body’s natural rhythms.

Comprehensive Stool Testing

Understand digestive function and nutrient absorption.

Your gut is the foundation of nearly every system in your body, from immunity and hormones to mood and metabolism. Comprehensive stool testing (GI-MAP) allows us to look beyond symptoms and understand how your digestive system is truly functioning.

This testing evaluates:

By identifying imbalances in the gut microbiome, we create targeted strategies to reduce bloating, improve digestion, calm inflammation, and support whole-body health.

Food Sensitivity Testing

Identify what is quietly contributing to your inflammation.

Some foods create inflammation not immediately, but subtly and repeatedly. Food sensitivity testing uncovers delayed immune reactions that may be contributing to symptoms you wouldn’t normally associate with food.

This testing may help explain:

Rather than long-term restriction, our goal is awareness, so we can reduce inflammation, support healing, and reintroduce foods strategically once we understand what your body can tolerate.

What We Do With What We Find

Comprehensive lab testing is only as valuable as what happens next. At RISE, every lab result is reviewed by Dr. Storm against optimal ranges and used to build a blueprint for what your body actually needs.

Your plan may include bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, targeted nutritional supplementation, peptide therapy, dietary modifications, GLP-1 therapy, gut healing support, or vitamin injections. Every recommendation is tied to the data we found in your labs.

Your Labs Are the Starting Point, Let's Read Them Right

If you are ready to find out what is keeping your body from functioning the way it should, the first step is a complimentary consultation with Dr. Storm. We will determine which panels are right for your symptoms and goals, run the tests, and build a plan from what we find.

Questions About Functional Lab Testing in Seattle

How is functional lab testing different from what my regular doctor orders?
Conventional lab panels are designed to identify disease. Functional lab testing looks at how well your body is functioning before a disease diagnosis develops. We also interpret results against optimal ranges rather than the average ranges used in conventional medicine, which means we often find meaningful imbalances that a standard panel would flag as normal.
Depending on your symptoms and goals, testing may include the DUTCH test for comprehensive hormone and adrenal function, GI-MAP stool analysis for gut health and microbiome balance, comprehensive functional bloodwork including full thyroid panel, metabolic markers, inflammatory markers, IGF-1, insulin, and iron, and food sensitivity testing. Dr. Storm will recommend the panels most relevant to your specific situation at your consultation.
No referral is needed. You can book a complimentary consultation with Dr. Storm directly and she will recommend the appropriate panels based on your health history and goals.
Lab turnaround times vary depending on the panels ordered, but most results are available within two to three weeks. Dr. Storm will schedule a follow-up appointment to review your results in detail and walk you through what they mean and what we are going to do about them.
RISE is a cash-pay practice. Functional lab testing is not typically covered by standard insurance. We offer customized receipts for HSA and FSA reimbursement and discuss your full investment before ordering any labs.
Your results become the foundation of your personalized wellness protocol. Dr. Storm reviews every panel against optimal ranges and builds a plan around your results, whether that is hormone support, gut healing, targeted supplementation, peptide therapy, or a combination of all of the above. We then retest at four months to track your progress and refine the plan as needed.
