You've been told your labs are fine, that what you're feeling is just stress, perimenopause, or what happens when you're juggling everything. The fatigue is still there. The bloating. The brain fog. Every service at Functional Root is built on the same premise: before any recommendation is made, we investigate. Whether you book a naturopathic consultation online, a functional blood chemistry review, at-home lab testing, our 6-month Energy Reset Method, or ongoing biofeedback, the work starts the same way.
Key Takeaways
The scope is educational and consultative, delivered 1:1 and 100% virtually by Yelena Tselenchuk, BCDHH.
Most functional practices move quickly to protocols. Functional Root starts with investigation. A 60+ page intake, a Traditional Chinese Medicine observational review of the face, tongue, eyes, and nails, and hours of practitioner preparation before a single session starts. Functional data is read in the context of how you actually live, not against a generic reference range. The methodology runs in four steps - Investigate, Interpret, Recommend, Refine - and every service below is an application of that same frame. What changes between services is the depth, the tools used, and the length of engagement.
The root-cause investigation itself. A 90-minute 1:1 virtual session built on your 60+ page intake and TCM observational review, with several hours of practitioner prep before you ever get on the call. Best for new clients and anyone wanting the most complete first read of their symptoms and history. Most leave with a clearer map than they've had from years of conventional visits.
A different read on blood work you may already have. Your panels are interpreted through tighter functional optimal ranges and connected directly to your symptoms, history, and how you're actually feeling. Best for clients with recent labs (within 6-12 months) who've been told "everything looks fine" when nothing about how they feel supports that.
At-home testing across systems blood work cannot reach: gut microbiome, mold and mycotoxin exposure, heavy metal burden, hormone rhythms with metabolites, and metabolic or nutrient panels. Results are reviewed in a dedicated 60-minute interpretation session. Best for clients whose standard testing has never fully explained their symptoms and who are ready to investigate further.
A structured 6-month, 1:1 program for women whose fatigue, gut issues, and hormone symptoms span multiple systems and won't resolve in a single session. Twelve sessions across five phases (Reveal, Reset, Release, Rebuild, Thrive), foundational functional lab testing, and direct access between sessions. Best for women who know they need more than isolated interventions. Enrollment is limited.
An ongoing monthly subscription for frequency-based nervous system support, delivered remotely through an app on a weekly cadence. You record a short voice sample, Yelena runs your session in the background, and you listen to personalized frequencies for 15 minutes morning and evening. Complementary to the investigative work, not a replacement for it. Non-diagnostic.
Most clients start with a free 15-minute discovery call. If you'd rather skip ahead, here's how the services line up with where you are.
Start with the Naturopathic Consultation. It’s the most complete first investigation, and everything else builds on it.
Book a Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis. You’ll get a functional read of panels that may have been dismissed as unremarkable.
Functional Lab Testing & Interpretation expands the investigation into gut, hormones, mold, metals, and nutrients.
The Energy Reset Method is a 6-month comprehensive program with limited enrollment.
Quantum Biofeedback is a monthly subscription that runs alongside any of the services above.
Every service is delivered 1:1 and 100% virtually via Zoom (or, for biofeedback, through a dedicated app). Yelena Tselenchuk, BCDHH, is a Doctor of Holistic Health and Board-Certified Naturopath and Homeopath. The practice is nationwide. No geographic limits, no office visits, no in-person requirement. The scope stays educational and consultative across every service: no diagnoses, no prescriptions, and no promised outcomes. The emphasis is clarity about what's actually driving how you feel, and a recommendation sequence built on your own data.
Most clients start with the Naturopathic Consultation because it captures the widest view of your symptoms and history. If you have recent blood work (within 6-12 months) and your priority is reading those panels properly, Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis is a more efficient starting point. A free 15-minute discovery call will point you to the right one.
Not in every case. If you have a clear focus (for example, persistent gut symptoms with strong suspicion of microbiome involvement), you can book functional lab testing directly. For most people with multiple symptoms across systems, the consultation first is faster. It identifies which tests actually matter before you invest in them.
The sessions themselves are not covered by insurance. At-home test kits, supplements, herbs, and homeopathic recommendations can generally be paid from an HSA or FSA account. Pricing for each service is listed on its individual page.
Yes. All services are 100% virtual and delivered nationwide. Sessions run over Zoom, test kits ship directly to your home, and biofeedback runs through an app. There's no office visit or in-person requirement at any stage.
One-to-one virtual sessions over Zoom, with a full intake and pre-session analysis completed before you ever get on the call. Functional testing is at-home collection, shipped to the lab, and results reviewed with Yelena in a dedicated session. Biofeedback sessions run remotely through an app on a weekly cadence.
The fastest way to figure out which service fits is a 15-minute discovery call. It's free, there's no intake to complete first, and you leave with a clear recommendation.
