Comprehensive Functional Lab Testing for Real Answers

At The Facility Denver, we specialize in advanced functional testing to help uncover the underlying causes of your health issues. When symptoms don't make sense and "normal" labs come back, it's time to look deeper. We use clinical and functional testing to uncover what routine screenings often miss: gut dysfunction, hormonal imbalance, metabolic concerns, nutrient deficiencies, mold exposure, toxic burden, and more.

These tests aren't about collecting data. They're about changing direction.

Our Approach to Labs

Labs only matter if they change what happens next.

We don't run every test on every person. We test with intention. Each panel is chosen to explain why the body is reacting, not just label what it's doing. The goal isn't more information. It's clarity, so treatment becomes obvious.

This is root-cause healthcare, not recreational testing. When the right data meets the right plan, things finally shift.

Get Started

Types of Labs We Use

Functional Medicine isn't about guessing. It's about measuring what matters. Below are some of the core lab categories we use to uncover the "why" behind your symptoms. Each panel offers a different window into how your body's systems communicate (or misfire).

Baseline Biomarker Panel

The Baseline Biomarker Testing is a comprehensive blood test, analyzing over 100 total biomarkers.

This test encompasses multiple organ systems analysis, to help us evaluate your baseline health status. This is the standard panel for all new patients. We recommend this panel annually.

Gut & Microbiome Testing

Your gut isn’t just about digestion — it’s your immune system’s control center.

We use comprehensive stool and microbiome panels (like the Gut Zoomer) to identify bacterial imbalances, pathogens, and inflammatory markers that affect everything from mood to metabolism.

Metabolic & Cardiovascular Health

Standard lab markers like glucose, insulin, and cholesterol all show metabolic function.

Advanced panels (like our Core+ or Healthspan labs) go beyond routine bloodwork, measuring ApoB, insulin resistance, and nutrient status to catch early dysfunction long before disease develops.

Hormones & Adrenal Panels

Fatigue, sleep disruption, irregular cycles, mood swings — these all trace back to hormone signaling.

Panels like DUTCH or HormoneZoomer show how your hormones behave over the course of the day, not just at one static moment. This helps us see stress patterns and recovery capacity.

Mold & Environmental Toxins

When exposure goes unnoticed, toxins can quietly drive fatigue, brain fog, and inflammation.

Mycotoxin panels and environmental screens reveal what your body is carrying — and guide strategies to help it release what’s weighing it down.

Autoimmune & Immune Function

Autoimmunity doesn't happen overnight. It builds for years before a diagnosis.

Immune-focused panels help us see early reactivity patterns, antibody production, and food/environmental triggers that keep inflammation simmering under the surface.

All of these labs are available through The Facility...the difference lies in how you access them.

Whether you’re working directly with our team or ordering your own panels, the process begins the same way: with curiosity and data.

FOR PATIENTS
Labs Within Personalized Care

Best for: Those who want a full evaluation, treatment plan, and ongoing guidance.

When labs are part of your care, they’re ordered after your provider understands your history, symptoms, and goals. We interpret your results in detail, build a treatment plan around them, and follow through on the changes they reveal. Some provider-only tests — such as DUTCH and MARCoNS — are only available through this route.

About The New Patient Process

FOR SELF-STARTERS
Direct Order Labs

Best for: Those who want data first and decisions later.

Our Direct Order Lab Shop offers access to many of the same panels we use in our clinic — without becoming a patient. You select the tests, receive your kit, and get your results through a secure portal. Interpretation sessions are optional and available as an add-on if you’d like clinical context once your results arrive.

Order Your Own Labs

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be a patient to order labs at The Facility?

A: Not always. At The Facility, we prioritize accessibility and education in preventative healthcare, and we understand that you deserve to understand your own body. As such, many of our core lab panels are available for direct order through our Direct Order Lab Shop without the need to become a patient. This allows you to take proactive steps towards understanding your health independently. However, certain specialized tests, such as DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) or MARCoNS (Multiple Antibiotic Resistant Coagulase Negative Staphylococci), do require a clinical relationship and are exclusively available through our patient care process. This ensures that these more complex evaluations are interpreted correctly and integrated into a comprehensive health plan tailored specifically for you. If you have any questions or need guidance on which labs are best suited for you, our professional team is here to assist.

What's the difference between working with The Functional Medicine Team and ordering labs yourself?

When you’re a patient or client, labs are selected based on your history and reviewed in detail during follow-up visits — with treatment built around the findings. Direct Order Labs give you access to data, but interpretation and action planning are optional add-ons, not included.

Can I use my health insurance to pay for tests?

Currently, Vibrant Wellness WellProz does not accept health insurance. However, you may use a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to cover the costs of the tests.

Will someone help me understand the results?

When the results are complete, you will get a lab summary report with all results from Vibrant Wellness. It will show normal lab ranges (age and gender corrected), and your specific results within those. The companion guide from Vibrant Wellness will also provide a deep dive into each individual marker and its significance for your health.

If you still want MORE, you can always schedule a one-on-one telehealth consultation with The Functional Medicine Team at The Facility. This is a chance to collaborate in-depth on recommendations and get real time feedback. You will receive more specific resources and guidance on lifestyle and nutrition strategies that support your (individual) health based on the lab results. [In an effort to have full price transparency, these visits are billed at $450 for 90-Minutes]

What is the turnaround time for Vibrant Wellness WellProz results?

Results from Vibrant Wellness WellProz typically take 7 to 14 days, depending on the test. You'll be notified via email once they're ready.

Can you diagnose me based on lab results?

Are there any preparations required before taking a test?

Yes, some tests may require specific preparations such as fasting or avoiding certain medications. Detailed instructions will be provided with your test kit to ensure accurate results.

What should I do if I have questions about my test results?

If you have any questions about your test results, you can schedule a follow-up consultation with the Functional Medicine Team at The Facility. They will help you understand your results and discuss any necessary next steps.

Is the testing process through Vibrant Wellness safe and accurate?
