Laboratory & In-house Testing

Laboratory Testing (note exceptions)

Fluid Samples – Saliva and hair are obtained in the office and sent to laboratories for evaluation, except for metabolic marker and lipid panels, which are performed in the office. Blood and urine are obtained and evaluated by our preferred laboratory. Stool and vaginal samples are obtained by the client in the privacy of their home and sent to the lab directly by the client.

Hormone Assessment and Replacement Therapy (Lab) – for menopause, perimenopause, thyroid disorders, adrenal fatigue, loss of sex drive, and osteoporosis

Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (Lab) - for heavy metal toxicity, mineral balances and ratios. Heavy metal toxicity is frequently the result of long term, low level exposure to pollutants common in our environment: air, water, food, and numerous consumer products.

Blood Chemistry - Health-conscious people want a better standard of care, so we provide a comprehensive array of over 50 blood chemistry tests. Regular testing can help us detect problems early, correct imbalances, and help you attain optimal health.

Gastrointestinal Assessments - Assessments of gastrointestinal function include the renowned Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis and several other tests and panels yielding important information about the ecology of the GI tract, yeast presence, immune function, parasite activity, specific intolerances, Helicobacter infection, and vaginal health.

Immunology Assessments - Assessments of immune function include the revolutionary Comprehensive Antibody Assessment, with its unique reporting of IgG antibodies for delayed reactions as well as IgE for immediate reactions.

Endocrinology Assessments- Assessments of endocrine function evaluate the body's ability to regulate itself through hormone action. Tests include evaluations of sex and regulatory hormones (including human growth hormone mediator IGF-1), the Bone Resorption Assessment, and a Glucose/Insulin Tolerance Test.

Metabolic Assessments - Metabolic assessments measure the body's detoxification processes, oxidative stress and antioxidant defense capabilities, and cardiovascular health (with a comprehensive array of independent markers). There is also a Cotinine Assay to identify the nicotine metabolin and pinpoint a cause of recurrent infections or allergy in children of smokers.

In-house Testing

Electro-Dermal Screening (EDS)

  • Indicates chemicals, pesticides, and other toxic materials in your system, including problems with dental materials such as mercury
  • Determine the energetic level of each and every organ in the body and how it is functioning
  • Indicate allergies and indicate foods that are best suited to your specific biological make-up
  • Indicate environmental allergies including heavy metals such as mercury, lead and aluminum
  • Indicate types of allergies such as yeast, fungus and molds as well as parasites
  • Indicate any vitamin or mineral imbalances

Bioresonance Therapy (BRT) - Harmonic resonance is a nurturing, natural and healing energy. A harmonic energy maybe the natural rhythm of the liver or kidney, a healing herb, tea, gemstone, color or supplement, or any other rhythmic vibration. All organs, glands and body parts have a natural and harmonious song. Even within a diseased system, this song still sings at some level. Bioresonance is the process of using the resonance or energy of a substance or of the people themselves to heal.

Metabolic Marker testing which includes Total Sugars, Mineral Salts - Electrolytes, Ureas: Nitrates and Ammonias.

Lipid Panels which evaluate cholesterol levels, HDL/LDL cholesterol ratios, and triglycerides.

Urinary Bone Marker testing which measures the rate of bone collagen loss.
