What is your body trying to tell you?

Ten questions, about two minutes. At the end you get your root-cause pattern, the markers I would prioritise for someone like you, which panel to start with, and the first thing I would do in clinic.

Question 1 of 10

This gives you a pattern, not a diagnosis. The only way to know which of these is actually driving how you feel is to measure it.

The seven patterns

Most people land in one of these.

And a good number land in two at once, which is exactly why we measure the whole picture instead of guessing at one part of it.

Pattern

The Depleted Engine

Exhausted regardless of sleep. Usually iron, thyroid conversion and mitochondrial cofactors running low together.

Pattern

The Hormonal Shift

Your body changed and you changed nothing. Measurable long before it becomes undeniable.

Pattern

The Metabolic Brake

Holding on rather than burning. Almost always traces back to a fasting insulin nobody ordered.

Pattern

The Inflammatory Load

The immune system is switched on and not switching off. The question is what it is responding to.

Pattern

The Gut-Driven Pattern

Seventy percent of immune tissue sits in the gut lining. The symptoms rarely stay in your abdomen.

Pattern

The Toxic Burden

It started after something — a house, a tick, a virus. Drainage before binding, every time.

Pattern

The Missed Thyroid

A normal TSH is the most common reason a real thyroid problem goes unfound for a decade.

Then we measure it

Bring your result to your first visit and we start there instead of at the beginning.

More ways to narrow it down

Still not sure where to start? Pick the question you have.

Three more short tools, each answering a different question. All free, none of them ask for an email, and every recommendation is confirmed by a licensed practitioner before anything is ordered.

Testing

Which bloodwork do I need?

Three questions on what brought you here and how deep you want to go. You get the panel we would start you with, and the specialty testing that belongs alongside it.

Therapies

Which therapies would help me most?

Ozone, HOCATT, nutrient IVs, red light, shockwave — there are fifteen here and most people need three or four. See which fit your case and the order to do them in.

Nutrition

What should I actually be eating?

What I tell patients depends on your labs. See how a real protocol is built — the foods we add, the ones we remove first, and exactly which marker each decision serves.

These tools narrow the options. They do not diagnose, and they never replace a conversation — which is exactly what the free discovery call is for.

Rather just talk to someone?

I've watched what happens when nobody looks closely enough, with my mom and with my own body. I built this clinic so the people who walk through our doors get the workup I wish my family had been given the first time.Dr. Josh Axe, DNM, DC, CNS · Founder
