The approach
Measure first, then decide
Without measured values, any treatment is guesswork. We turn the order around: first the lab report, then the decision.

See where you stand Every value appears in the lab report with the laboratory's reference range. You can see which values fall inside it and which do not.Lab report including a results consultation

Targeted instead of general Instead of a standard package you take what your values point to — agreed with a practitioner.Initial consultation 10 minutes, free

Measure again after a few months The same analysis a second time shows how the values have changed.Earliest sensible interval: 3 months
Ory experts are there for you
All along the way, doctors and Heilpraktiker from the Ory team are there for you — with your lab report and everything after it.
What a value means, and whether a supplement is right for you, is something to discuss with a practitioner. This page makes no recommendation and is no substitute for medical assessment.

What this analysis includes
What is measured
Three areas from one combined sample. Every value appears in the lab report with the laboratory's reference range.
The biomarker reference explains what lies behind the numbers: how values interact, which cofactors are involved and which biochemical processes take place in the body — for all values and areas, not only this analysis.
To the biomarker reference
Who for
The Akne Basis-Profil is suitable if acne persists despite treatment applied to the skin, or if a link with diet, the gut or a nutrient deficiency is suspected — for example alongside digestive problems, suspected histamine intolerance, a possible mineral deficiency or noticeable reactions to certain foods.
What a single value means in your situation is something you discuss with a practitioner. It does not replace a medical assessment.
How it works
Four steps from order to lab report.
- 01 Kit arrives Shipped the next working day, three collection sets in one kit.
- 02 Take the stool samples Two collections, for microbiome (OmicSnap) and histamine/leaky gut (dosing stick).
- 03 Take the capillary blood 400 µl from the fingertip for the micronutrients.
- 04 Send in & result Send all samples in together (Mon–Thu), result after 7–21 days including a results consultation.
Instructions
Sample collection has three parts. The most important points first:
- No antibiotics in the last 4 weeks and no probiotics in the last 2 weeks before collection.
- Three collections: two stool samples (microbiome, histamine/leaky gut) and one capillary blood sample (micronutrients).
- Send only Monday to Thursday, all samples together in the same envelope.
Please read the instructions carefully. Correct preparation matters, so that your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood – can be evaluated cleanly and meaningfully.

Sending your sample back
So that your sample reaches the laboratory safely, please follow this rule for your country.
| Country | Postage | Shipping |
|---|---|---|
| Germany | Already paid | Return postage is prepared, you do not need a stamp. |
| Austria | Add your own postage | To our address in Vienna, not to Germany. |
| Switzerland | Add your own postage | Separate return bag for Switzerland, sent to Germany. |
| Rest of Europe | Add your own postage | Sent to Germany. |
In short: Germany, everything is ready. Austria, add postage and send to Vienna. Switzerland, add postage, special bag, send to Germany. Rest of Europe, add postage and send to Germany.

Reimbursement by private insurance
This is how a possible reimbursement by your private insurance works with us:
Many private insurers cover the cost in full or in part – some, however, not at all. That depends entirely on your policy. We will support you through the process as best we can.
