Discover Our Approach to Integrative Functional Wellness

At the core of our wellness approach is Laura Kopec’s 3-Phase Method: Acute, Rebuild, and Maintenance. We start by addressing both acute and chronic health issues, followed by a second phase that focuses on correcting imbalances after the acute concerns are managed. Finally, we guide you into a maintenance phase for long-term wellness.

Our fully Integrative and Functional approach combines traditional diagnostic lab work with holistic panels, providing a comprehensive view of your health. By gathering more in-depth data than a typical annual checkup, we create a personalized wellness plan. Collaboration is key—we continuously refine your plan for optimal results.

Acute, Rebuild and Maintenance

Our customized wellness plans address long-standing health concerns, often rooted in issues that developed over time. We prioritize the most urgent health challenges first, then transition into the next phase of healing before moving into long-term maintenance.

Our plans typically include personalized recommendations for nutrition, lifestyle changes, and supplements. Based on your lab results, we may also incorporate IV infusion protocols for detoxification and injectables. We’re passionate about sharing our expertise and fully committed to supporting you throughout your wellness journey. After the initial phases, we craft maintenance plans to help you stay healthy and prevent relapse.

All Appointments

Payment is expected at the time of service and insurance is only accepted on traditional annual blood work and not accepted for functional testing, other services/visits and intermittent blood work deemed unnecessary by insurance. 

New Client Initial Phone or Telemed Video Consultation

New appointments for functional/integrative approach last approximately 40-55 minutes in session but also involve approximately another hour to two hours of our time outside of your session. Your first appointment includes a health history assessment, review/education of previous lab work (if applicable), assessment and evaluation of health, nutritional education and consulting, nutritional guidelines, and supplement protocol. Labs may be recommended depending on imbalances but are not required. NOTE: If the appointment is for your child, please schedule with YOUR NAME and not your child’s name, but complete the intake form with your child’s information.

Lab Reviews (30-60 minutes)

Pricing depends on time spent in review and the time needed to build treatment plan. A review of labs acquired after your initial visit whether a doctor ordered or ordered through Laura’s office will be charged according to time to review. This appointment type includes reviews of Genova Functional Panels such as GI Effects Comprehensive Digestive Anaylsis, Nutreval Comprehensive Nutritional Evaluation and Sanesco NeuroHormone Panels.

Brief Follow-up (20-30 minutes) for 1 Person

 All Follow-up appointments include assessment of progress, next phase education and information, management of initial recommendation based on performance and results, answers to questions based on education, experience and expertise. Most individuals need approximately 2-3 follow-ups. The brief follow-up is not a lab review. See Lab Review for additional details.

Extended Follow-up for 2 Persons/Family (45-60 minutes)

Recommended for family follow-ups when two or more are under care.
