The specific combination most practitioners can’t offer
If you’ve been to multiple practitioners and still don’t feel right, you’re exactly who I help.
This is for you if:
The frustration doesn’t need to continue.
Does this sound like you:
“I am doing everything right (or what I think I know to be ‘right’), and I am not getting anywhere. I feel like I am not supporting my body in the way that it needs – I’m sick of perfectly scored bloods, and tests and medicine that I think are putting me in an even deeper hole”

Microbiome testing shows the what.
DNA testing helps explain the why.
Your microbiome reveals what is happening in your gut right now – bacterial imbalances, inflammation patterns, digestive dysfunction, pathogens, and how your gut environment is affecting symptoms like bloating, fatigue, skin issues, food reactions, or hormone disruption.
But it doesn’t always explain why those patterns developed in the first place. That’s where DNA testing adds the missing layer.
Your genes influence how you detox, process histamine, regulate inflammation, absorb nutrients, manage hormones, respond to stress, and maintain your gut lining. They help explain why one person develops persistent gut issues while another doesn’t, even with similar diets or lifestyles.
When we read both together, we stop guessing. We can see not only what needs to be treated, but why your body is responding this way, allowing for a far more precise, personalised treatment plan with better long-term outcomes.
What each test reveals on its own vs what they reveal when read together
| Microba (Microbiome Testing) | Smart DNA (DNA Testing) | Functional Pathology Testing | When Read Together | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Focus | Your gut microbiome right now | Your genetic blueprint and inherited tendencies | What your body is doing right now biochemically | The full picture: function + genetics + root cause |
| Shows | Bacterial balance, diversity, pathogens, inflammation patterns, gut function markers | Detox pathways, methylation, histamine handling, inflammation genes, nutrient needs, metabolism | Nutrient deficiencies, iron status, thyroid, hormones, inflammation, liver function, immune markers | How your genes, gut, and biochemistry interact to drive symptoms |
| Answers | What is happening in my gut? | Why might this keep happening? | What systems are under stress right now? | Why is this happening, what’s driving it, and what needs fixing first? |
| Useful For | Bloating, IBS, constipation, diarrhoea, food reactions, microbiome imbalance | Histamine issues, poor detox, hormone imbalance, fatigue, inflammation patterns | Fatigue, hair loss, heavy periods, thyroid symptoms, low energy, immune issues, hormonal symptoms | Complex, recurring cases where symptoms overlap and standard treatment hasn’t worked |
| Treatment Direction | Targeted probiotics, antimicrobials, gut repair, food strategies | Personalised nutrition, supplement support, detox pathways, methylation and hormone support | Correcting deficiencies, improving hormone balance, reducing inflammation, restoring metabolic function | A precise, prioritised treatment plan based on what your body needs most first |
The Difference
Microbiome = the WHAT.
DNA = the WHY.
Pathology = what your body is struggling with NOW.
When all three are interpreted together,
we stop treating symptoms in isolation.
Instead, we can see the full story what is happening, why it’s happening, and the most effective place to start so your treatment is targeted, strategic, and built for long-term results.

Investment
Initial Consultation – $395
Your first appointment includes:
Testing costs are separate and only recommended where clinically appropriate. We can use your existing tests if appropriate, or I can refer for new ones.
This is designed to save you money long-term by avoiding unnecessary supplements and ineffective treatment plans.
