Most test kits are collected in the privacy of your home from urine, saliva, or blood from a finger stick. Major insurance companies including Medicare cover most testing.
Treatment focuses on correcting the identified imbalances and getting the brain and body's chemistry back in balance. We treat clients either in our office or by telephone consultation. Test kits can be sent anywhere in the world.

We strive to identify and treat underlying conditions such as adrenal fatigue, hormone imbalance, nutritional deficiencies, thyroid disorders, and neurotransmitter imbalances which cause or contribute to symptoms of depression, anxiety and other mental health issues.
