I've engaged professional and dedicated alternative practitioners for 40 years, before "integrative" or "functional" practices that accept insurance became a thing. For many of those years, the going rate was $150 for a thorough one-hour consultation (conversation). I was always able to pay out of pocket for such services, even as a single parent juggling work opportunities around home schooling. That first hour includes review of a comprehensive health profile filled out beforehand by the client. It does not include lab tests or remedies. Last I checked, the new patient consult now hovers around $250 -- and ~$100 more in higher income areas.

$150, for me, would be a possibility. No labs could be done. $250 is a non-starter.
