Functional Medicine Testing & Personalized Programs in Fairlawn, OH
Why We Use Functional Testing
Many people are told their labs are "normal"—yet they still don't feel well.
Functional testing allows us to look deeper and broader than standard screening labs by evaluating patterns, relationships, and physiologic trends that may contribute to how you're feeling.
At Monarch Ideal Care, functional testing is used to:
explore root contributors to symptoms
guide targeted supplement and lifestyle strategies
support informed, individualized wellness plans
This testing is not about diagnosing disease, but about understanding how your body is functioning and where support may be helpful. Your body has the capacity to heal itself, you just have to support that goal.
The Testing We Use (Why Genova Diagnostics)
We partner with Genova Diagnostics, a nationally recognized laboratory known for advanced functional and integrative testing.
Genova's testing allows us to access:
digestion and gut health
stress response patterns
hormone balance and cycling
nutrient and metabolic pathways
immune and inflammatory signals
These insights help us move beyond guesswork and create plans grounded in data.

What Happens After Testing
Testing is only useful if it leads to clarity.
Once results return, we schedule a comprehensive interpretation visit (included in the program), where we:
review results in plain language
discuss patterns and contributing factors
connect findings to your symptoms and goals
outline personalized next steps
Your plan may include:
targeted supplement strategies
anti-inflammatory or gut-supportive nutrition guidance
lifestyle and stress regulation support
habit and behavior change coaching
Investment & Program Structure
Functional testing programs are cash-based and not covered by insurance.
Testing typically starts at $200+, depending on panels selected
The interpretation visit is included with testing
Additional follow up or coaching visits are $200 per session, as needed
We use investment language intentionally—this is time-intensive, personalized care focused on long-term understanding, not rushed visits.
Important Expectations to Understand
Functional testing offers insight—not guarantees.
Abnormal results do not always directly explain symptoms
Improvement may take time and iteration
Some symptoms require multiple layers of support
Discontinuing supplements or programs returns you to baseline—not worse
This work is collaborative, educational, and exploratory.
Our goal is informed decision-making, not promises.
Who This Approach Is Best For
Functional testing may be a good fit if you:
feel stuck despite "normal" labs
want a deeper understanding of your body
are open to lifestyle and nutrition changes
prefer personalized, data-guided wellness support
If may not be ideal if you're seeking:
insurance-covered services only
medication-only treatment
immediate symptom resolution
Your Next Step: Functional Medicine Consultation
Before ordering any testing, we begin with a Functional Medicine Consolation to:
review your history
clarify symptoms and priorities
determine appropriate testing
answer questions about process and cost
This ensures testing is intentional and aligned with your goals.
