THE TRUST Method
TEST - RESOURCE - UNDERSTAND - SUSTAIN - TOUCH
Science-backed testing is the first pillar of The TRUST Method. We partner with the UK's top laboratories to test biochemical markers which allows us to pinpoint the underlying causes of your chronic health issues and barriers to optimal wellness.
To order your test, first book a consultation with Nicci who will make recommendations on the right test for you based on your symptoms and medical history.
Gut Microbiome Tests
The TRUST Method uses the most advanced gastrointestinal diagnostics to uncover information about gut inflammation, immune function, digestion, absorption, the microbiome, infections, and gut lining integrity.
​
In addition to common gastrointestinal complaints, our practitioners often assess gut health for many other conditions including fatigue, chronic stress, autoimmune diseases, mood disorders, migraine, achy joints & skin conditions. There is a tremendous amount of research linking GI function and the gut microbiome to overall health.
360 Personalised Nutritional Assessment
The TRUST Method recommends some clients do a comprehensive nutritional assessment which evaluates, the complete metabolic workings of the body and nutrient levels. Several conditions are associated with abnormal nutrient levels, enzyme deficit or toxic build-up such as chronic stress, pain, depression, anxiety, cardiovascular disease, neurocognitive decline, diabetes, cancer and many others.
​
This non-invasive, patient-friendly test assess the functional need for antioxidants, B-vitamins, minerals, digestive support, fatty acids, and amino acids, allowing us to be specific with nutritional recommendations to target the exact underlying causes of your symptoms, or indeed to maximise your health.
Mineral Levels & Metal Toxicity Test
The TRUST Method uses the HTMA (Hair and Tissue Mineral Analyis) to check your body’s mineral and toxic metal levels. It is a clinically proven laboratory test, using a sample of hair.
​
Results show hidden mineral deficiencies and metal toxicity linked to symptoms, from which an individualised diet & supplement plan will be developed to make a big difference to your overall health and wellbeing.

Food Intolerance Test
The TRUST Method works with the York Test Laboratory who've been testing food allergies and intolerances for 40+ years, have a fantastic team of experts and the most advanced laboratories that test over 200 foods and drink ingredients when other tests commonly test for approx. 50.
A food and environment intolerance test helps you to take control of your overall health by identifying trigger foods causing symptoms.
​
DUTCH Test
The DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) test is a comprehensive hormone test that can be used for women in perimenopause, menopause, or postmenopause. It measures levels of hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, and melatonin, as well as their metabolites. The test uses dried urine samples collected over a 24-hour period, and provides valuable information about hormone imbalances and how they may be contributing to symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, aches and pains, skin conditions, fatigue, and mood changes. The DUTCH test is particularly useful because it provides information about the body's hormone metabolites, which can help to guide treatment strategies.
Full Nutritional Evaluation
The NutrEval® FMV uses blood and urine to evaluate over 125 biomarkers and assess the body's functional need for 40 antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids, digestive support, and other select nutrients. Results also show methylation ability, toxic exposure, mitochondrial dysfunction, fatty acid imbalances, and oxidative stress.
​
Clients who benefit from this test include mood disorders, cardiovascular conditions, metabolic conditions (diabetes, obesity), chronic fatigue, athletic performance, physical trauma/healing.
