Naturopathic Service
Special Lab Tests
Go beyond standard bloodwork. Dr. Ahaghotu uses advanced, specialized laboratory testing to uncover hidden imbalances, identify root causes of chronic illness, and guide precise, personalized treatment plans.
Precision Diagnostics
Why Specialized Lab Testing Matters
Conventional medicine typically relies on standard blood panels that screen for obvious disease markers. While valuable, these tests often miss the subtle imbalances and functional dysfunctions that drive chronic symptoms long before a diagnosable disease develops.
Naturopathic medicine takes a deeper look. Dr. Ahaghotu uses specialized functional and integrative laboratory tests that assess how your body is actually performing — evaluating hormone levels, nutrient status, gut microbiome health, toxic burden, genetic factors, and more.
The result is a comprehensive picture of your health that allows for targeted, evidence-based interventions — not guesswork. Every treatment recommendation at Royal Healing ND is grounded in objective data from your own body.

How It Works
Our Lab Testing Process
Initial Consultation
Dr. Ahaghotu reviews your health history, symptoms, and goals to determine which specialized tests will provide the most clinically relevant information.
Test Ordering & Collection
Tests are ordered through leading functional medicine labs. Most samples are collected at home (blood spot, saliva, urine, or stool) and mailed directly to the lab.
Results Review
Dr. Ahaghotu provides a thorough, plain-language review of your results — explaining what each finding means for your health and how it connects to your symptoms.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on your results, a targeted naturopathic treatment plan is developed — addressing identified imbalances with nutrition, botanicals, supplements, and lifestyle modifications.
