Naturopathic Blood Work
Naturopathic doctors use blood work as a valuable tool to assess your overall health, identify imbalances, and create personalized treatment plans. Unlike conventional testing that often focuses on diagnosing disease, naturopathic blood testing takes a more preventative and functional approach, looking at optimal ranges—not just "normal" ones.
Targeted Blood Tests
Individual blood tests ordered by naturopathic doctors provide targeted insights into specific aspects of your health. Unlike general panels, these tests are chosen based on your unique symptoms, health concerns, and goals.
Food Sensitivity Testing
The RMA FST™ by LifeLabs is a blood test that helps identify food sensitivities by measuring IgG antibodies to up to 211 common foods. It supports personalized dietary changes to reduce inflammation and improve overall wellness.
This test provides insights that can assist in tailoring your diet to reduce inflammation and alleviate related symptoms.
