Advanced Diagnostic Services
The Center for Alternative Medicine utilizes a wide array of advanced diagnostic services. By combining traditional therapies with advanced diagnostics, we ensure that our patients receive the most appropriate care.
Digital Acoustic Cardiography
Because the heart is the most important muscle in your body, this organ is also highly sensitive to changes in nutritional status. By graphing the acoustic signature of your heartbeat, Digital Acoustic Cardiography helps us to determine what nutrient imbalances may be affecting your health.
Electronic Meridian Imaging
Computer-assisted
meridian imaging allows us to view in real-time the flow of energy
through the acupuncture meridians in your body. This information is
critical in developing precise acupuncture prescriptions.
Gastrointestinal Function Analysis
We employ a specialty laboratory to provide us with the most comprehensive functional testing available. Tailored for nutrition professionals, this test gives us a detailed look at your digestive processes. In addition, this test uncovers gastrointestinal infections that are usually missed -- or not even tested for -- at mainstream laboratories.
Time-Series Hormonal Analysis
A
single blood sample tells you little about your hormonal status.
Instead, we use a multi-day saliva sample to show us what hormones your
body is producing — and when. Saliva samples have been shown
to
be highly accurate tools for measuring hormones, and by seeing the
changes over time, we can intervene with the right treatment at the
right time.
