Our sessions are clinical interventions, not relaxation treatments. Karey brings her extensive training in CranioSacral therapy, lymphatic therapy, and therapeutic bodywork to identify and address the underlying systemic causes of your physical tension — not just the symptoms on the surface.
CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on approach that releases deep tensions in the body to relieve pain and improve whole-body health. Pioneered by Osteopathic Physician John E. Upledger, it uses a soft touch of no greater than 5 grams — about the weight of a nickel — to release restrictions in the soft tissues surrounding the central nervous system. CST is used as both a preventive health measure and an effective treatment for chronic pain, migraines, TMJ, post-surgical recovery, and nervous system disorders.
Karey brings over a decade of advanced Upledger Institute training to every session, listening to your body's own rhythms rather than applying a generic protocol. Most clients describe the experience as profoundly restorative, with effects that continue unfolding for days afterward.
No. While our sessions complement the M.A.P. System beautifully — especially for clients on detox or drainage protocols — bodywork is available as a standalone service for anyone dealing with chronic tension, nervous system dysregulation, post-surgical recovery, or trauma.
Detox protocols mobilize stored toxins and metabolic waste, but if your lymphatic drainage pathways aren't open and moving, that waste has nowhere to go. Manual lymphatic therapy activates those pathways so inflammation can actually clear the body rather than recirculate.
When your body is stuck in chronic fight-or-flight (sympathetic dominance), it cannot heal, repair, or rest properly — no matter how many supplements you take. Our manual therapy techniques signal your nervous system to downshift into “rest and digest” or parasympathetic mode, which is where true cellular repair happens.
Yes, and it's often highly recommended. Clinical lymphatic and structural therapies can reduce post-surgical swelling, improve circulation, minimize scar tissue formation, and support faster recovery. We work gently and in coordination with your medical care.
Our orthopedic massage sessions target deep fascial restrictions and structural imbalances that contribute to chronic dysfunction. The goal isn't temporary relaxation — it's restoring mobility, releasing the physical "armor" that accumulates from chronic stress, and supporting your overall functional health long-term.
That depends on how long your body has been holding the patterns we're working to release. Acute issues may resolve in a few sessions, while long-standing structural or nervous system patterns typically benefit from a series. Karey will discuss a realistic plan with you at your first appointment.
What you wear depends on the type of session you've booked. For CranioSacral Therapy, you remain fully clothed throughout. For lymphatic therapy and orthopedic massage, you'll be asked to undress to your comfort level with full draping provided. If you prefer to stay clothed for an orthopedic massage session, comfortable athletic wear such as shorts and a t-shirt or sports bra works perfectly.
Regardless of modality, most clients notice a deep sense of relaxation during the session. In the days following, it's common to experience improved sleep, reduced pain, or emotional release as your body integrates the work. Some clients temporarily feel more tired than usual — this is a normal part of the healing response and a sign your system is doing exactly what it should.

Functional medicine looks for the root cause behind symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, or hormone imbalance — especially when your labs look "normal" but you don't feel right. It works through the Stress-Gut-Hormone Triangle rather than touch-based bodywork; many clients use both.
Stress, gut health, and hormones constantly affect each other, so a symptom in one area usually traces back to another. We look at all three together instead of treating one symptom alone.
The $97, 30-minute consultation is the starting point without recent labs. Meetings can be held in person or by call. You complete a symptom questionnaire beforehand; we map your symptoms to the Triangle and recommend labs or an M.A.P. tier. This consultation can be credited toward an M.A.P. program within 30 days.
Often not. Bring what you have to the $97 Root Cause Consultation — if your blood work is recent and thorough enough to work from, we'll use it, and I'll tell you whether anything is worth adding. If it's out of date or too narrow to answer your questions, you'll leave knowing exactly which labs would. Deeper functional testing is interpreted inside an M.A.P. program.
If you're not sure, start with the $97 Root Cause Consultation — that's exactly what it's for, and it credits toward an M.A.P. program within 30 days. If you want data first, a Journeys lab panel gives you testing plus a written plan. If you'd rather work at your own pace, start with a course. If you want guided support from the beginning, go straight to the M.A.P. System.
The exact labs are customized to your needs, not a fixed package — common options include GI360, DUTCH Plus, Metabolomix+, and DNA Core, and other tests may be added depending on what we're investigating.
Lab testing is billed separately from the program price — that's what the lab charges for your testing, not a second fee from us. Roughly, Foundation runs about $290–$305, Comprehensive about $990–$1,190, and Complete about $1,730–$1,930. Your results are yours to keep and take to any provider. Costs can be lower if you bring recent labs, many clients use an HSA or FSA card, and we confirm exact pricing at your Root Cause Consultation before you commit to anything.
Every tier runs 8 weeks with calls around week 4 and 8. Most clients notice early shifts in energy, digestion, or sleep within the first few weeks. Ongoing Care is available after the initial 8 weeks through a monthly subscription.
It's a $147/month subscription for M.A.P. graduates who want continued support — a monthly call, messaging, and a monthly symptom check-in. It picks up after M.A.P., not instead of it.
Journeys are two all-inclusive lab panels through our Fullscript storefront — the Women's Vitality & Hormone Panel ($417) or the Men's Performance & Hormone Panel ($435). Each includes the labs, a written lab review, and a wellness plan, delivered within 5 business days. There's no consultation call and no follow-up support. The M.A.P. System, by contrast, adds tier-based functional testing, a personalized protocol, and 8 weeks of guided support.
No — all functional medicine services are self-pay, and functional lab testing is billed separately at the lab's cost. These are specialty labs, not the standard diagnostic panels insurance plans are built to pay for, so they fall outside typical coverage. Many clients use an HSA or FSA card; check with your plan on eligibility.
Great bodywork does more than relieve tension — it opens the door to understanding why that tension keeps coming back. At Radiant Functional Wellness, our clinical bodywork is one half of a deeper approach to root-cause healing. If you find yourself wondering why chronic pain, inflammation, or fatigue keep returning despite treatment, the answer may lie in your gut, your hormones, or your nervous system. We'd love to introduce you to the other half of what we do.
