Lab Testing
Our Naturopaths offer diagnostic services at the clinic to help understand your health concerns and to monitor treatment progress. The following is a list of tests most commonly performed:
IgG food intolerance testing: 120 different foods are analyzed via a blood test in order to detect hidden food intolerances which could be contributing to symptoms such as weight gain, fatigue, chronic pain and digestive disorders.
Urine metabolite hormone testing: helps us to assess thyroid, adrenal and female hormone imbalances.
Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis: helps to understand common digestive complaints by measuring inflammation levels, food break-down, healthy bacteria and unhealthy bacteria/yeasts/parasites.
Toxicity screening: measures the amount of heavy metal exposure in the body and accumulation in the tissues.
Liver detoxification assessment: monitors the functioning of the liver and how well the detoxification pathways are working.
Standard blood testing: cholesterol, thyroid, vitamin-status, hormone levels, etc.
In-house urinalysis: to detect the body’s acidity levels, kidney function and urinary health.
*All tests ordered by our Naturopaths are not covered by OHIP. For routine blood tests, they will often collaborate with your medical doctor.
