Laboratory Testing
Diagnostic tests can be invaluable, not only do they help diagnose the problem but you have a repeatable test to assess whether your treatment has been successful.
Common tests that clients benefit from are:
- Thyroid Hormones – Total Thyroxine, Free T4, Free T3, TSH and Thyroid Antibodies
- Comprehensive Parasitology Profiles – for Parasites, Yeast, Bacteria
