Whole-PersonFeatured Therapy
An immersive, multi-modal wellness pod combining cutting-edge technologies to promote deep healing, cellular regeneration, and profound relaxation. Nothing else like it in Illinois.
The Celestial Med Bed is an advanced wellness pod that combines multiple healing technologies into a single, immersive 30–60 minute session. It is one of the most innovative recovery and regeneration tools available in Illinois.
The experience is deeply relaxing — most clients describe it as the most restful hour of their week.
The pod uses a synergistic blend of therapeutic modalities working simultaneously:
The Celestial Med Bed is ideal for anyone seeking:
We take the time to listen, investigate, and understand your unique health story. No rushing. No dismissing. No "your labs look fine."
Start Your JourneyYour first visit is 60–90 minutes. We review your full health history, symptoms, lifestyle, and prior labs — building a complete picture, not a snapshot.
We order the labs conventional medicine typically skips — functional markers, nutrient levels, hormones, gut health, toxic burden, and more.
Based on your results and story, we build a protocol tailored to your biochemistry — nutrition, supplements, IV therapy, peptides, and lifestyle interventions.
We monitor your progress, adjust your protocol, and walk beside you — because real healing is a journey, not a single appointment.
These are just some of the conditions we commonly help our patients overcome using root-cause functional medicine.
For three years, every doctor told me my labs were normal while I was exhausted, gaining weight, and losing my hair. Laura found the root cause in our first visit and had me feeling like myself again within 90 days. I wish I had found her sooner.
The Celestial Med Bed combined with the IV nutrition protocol has been transformative. After a career of physical demands, my joints, sleep, and recovery have dramatically improved. This clinic is unlike anything in the Metro East area.
Laura sat with me for over an hour and actually listened. She ordered tests I had never even heard of. Turns out I had significant mineral deficiencies and hormonal imbalances that had been missed for years. Her care plan changed my life.
At Full Circle Function, every member of the team was chosen for the same reason: they listen first. From front desk to clinical staff, our team creates an environment where patients feel genuinely heard — often for the first time in years.
We are a small, intentional practice. That means you will see familiar faces at every visit, work with people who know your history, and never feel like a number. Our team collaborates closely on each care plan, bringing multiple perspectives to your health journey so nothing is missed.
MSN, AGNP-C, FNP-C, CFMP · Functional Medicine NP
Laura is a Functional Medicine-certified Nurse Practitioner who spent 15 years in the ICU before founding Full Circle Function. In critical care, she saw firsthand how conventional medicine treats symptoms while the underlying cause remains invisible. That frustration became her calling.
She holds dual Master's degrees as a Family Nurse Practitioner and Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner and is certified through Functional Medicine University. Her approach combines advanced diagnostics — including hair tissue mineral analysis — with deeply personalized care plans built around each patient's unique biochemistry.
