Epigenetics
Epigenetics | Stress Monitor
One drop of blood from a fingertip — and you can see how chronic stress alters your gene expression epigenetically. Stress-associated miRNAs, DNA stability, inflammation markers and methylation-relevant micronutrients in one test.
No prescription needed. Ships the next working day.

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

Ory experts are with you
Doctors and non-medical practitioners from the Ory team are there for you throughout — for the 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 covers
What is measured
Four parameter categories make up the epigenetic stress profile.
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.

For whom
Epigenetik | Stress Monitor suits anyone who wants to make lasting stress measurable at the molecular level — an objective addition to how stress feels, for instance where chronic overload is suspected or as part of a prevention plan.
What a single value means in your situation is something to discuss with a practitioner. It does not replace medical assessment.
How it works
Four steps from order to lab report.
- 01 Kit arrives Sent the next working day, postage paid, to your door.
- 02 Take the blood One small finger prick, one drop of blood, about five minutes.
- 03 Send it in Labelled, with the request form, in the postage-paid envelope.
- 04 Receive the report 7–21 days after the sample arrives.
Instructions
The essentials first:
- Warm the hand well first, clean the finger with an alcohol swab and let it dry.
- Place one drop of blood on the pre-punched field and let it air-dry.
- Send it labelled, in the foil pouch, together with the request form.
Please read the instructions carefully. Correct preparation matters: it is what allows your sample – stool, urine, saliva or blood – to be evaluated cleanly and meaningfully.

Sending your sample back
To make sure your sample reaches the laboratory safely, follow the rule for your country.
| Country | Postage | Shipping |
|---|---|---|
| Germany | Already paid | Return postage is prepaid, you do not need to add a stamp. |
| Austria | Add your own stamp | To our address in Vienna, not to Germany. |
| Switzerland | Add your own stamp | Separate return bag for Switzerland, sent to Germany. |
| Rest of Europe | Add your own stamp | Sent to Germany. |
In short: Germany, nothing to do. Austria, add a stamp and send to Vienna. Switzerland, add a stamp, use the special bag, send to Germany. Rest of Europe, add a stamp 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.
