Functional Medicine Lab Analysis Weekend Intensives
Learn to Read Labs Like a Functional Medicine Pro
In the Heart of Gold Country
Two Weekends. Complete Training. Transformative Learning.
Join me for an intimate, in-person deep dive into functional medicine lab analysis across two essential weekend intensives in Nevada City, California.
Part 1: July 18-19, 2025
Part 2: August 29-30, 2025
Location: Nevada City, CA (Sierra Foothills)
Total CEUs: 16 (both weekends required)
There's something powerful about stepping away from screens and learning face-to-face.
This condensed, analog-style intensive is designed for practitioners who absorb complex information best when they can:
Be fully present with the material without digital distractions
Ask questions in real-time and get immediate, nuanced answers
Connect with fellow practitioners in meaningful ways
Focus intensively in a retreat-like setting
Learn hands-on with real case discussions and collaborative insights
❋ Why In-Person Learning?
❋ What's Included
Each day features:
✨ Focused, hands-on instruction in functional medicine lab analysis
✨ Lunch provided from beloved local Nevada City eateries
✨ Mini movement classes to keep our minds fresh and bodies energized
✨ Cozy, comfortable learning space right next to my Nevada City office collective
✨ Real-time Q&A and case discussions throughout both weekends
✨ Course materials to reference in your practice
The goal is for this to feel less like a course you push through and more like a mini retreat where you leave with the material feeling clearer, more integrated, and ready to use immediately in your practice.
❋ What You’ll Learn
You'll gain confidence interpreting lab results through both functional and Eastern medicine lenses, including:
How to identify patterns of imbalance before they become disease
The true meaning of "normal" vs. "optimal" ranges
Finding root causes that Western doctors often miss
Reading the story blood work tells about your patients' health
Integrating lab findings with your Eastern medicine diagnosis
This is the same high-quality content I teach in my programs, delivered in a condensed, immersive weekend format.
