Unlock the secrets of your gut health

Discover how your unique microbial profile influences your health, immunity, and well-being through advanced microbiome analysis.

The Foundation of Health

What is the Microbiome?

Your gut is home to trillions of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi, collectively known as the microbiome. This complex ecosystem plays a vital role in everything from digesting food and producing vitamins to regulating your immune system and influencing your mood.

An imbalance in this ecosystem — known as dysbiosis — can contribute to a wide range of health issues, including digestive disorders, inflammation, skin conditions, and chronic fatigue.

Microbiome analysis provides a detailed map of your gut bacteria, allowing us to identify imbalances and tailor a nutritional plan specifically for your unique needs.

Everything you

Understanding your gut health is a significant step in your wellness journey. Here are answers to common questions about our microbiome analysis process.

How much does the microbiome analysis cost?
The cost for the comprehensive microbiome analysis including the test kit, laboratory processing, and your personalised results consultation is €345.
How long does it take to get results?
Once you have returned your sample to the laboratory, results typically take 2-3 weeks to be processed. Rachel will contact you once the report is ready to schedule your feedback session.
What does the final report look like?
You will receive a detailed digital report that breaks down your microbial diversity, identifies specific strains of bacteria present, and assesses your gut barrier function. Rachel will provide a simplified summary and clear nutritional actions.
Is the test done at home or in the clinic?
The microbiome test is a simple at-home stool sample kit. Rachel will provide you with the kit and full instructions during your consultation, and you return it directly to the lab via post.
Do I need to change my diet before the test?
No, it's best to maintain your usual eating habits before taking the sample. This ensures the results reflect your current gut environment. If you are taking antibiotics, we recommend waiting 4 weeks before testing.
