Root Cause Lab Tests

At Rob + Katie Truax wellness center, we believe in the power of assessment.

From a trained listening ear to thoughtful questioning, applied kinesiology, computerized questionnaires, and now an expanded collection of lab tests, we are dedicated to understanding the root cause of your symptoms and challenges so that we can address them at the core and get you back on the path to restoring your ultimate health.

Toxin

$200-$300

Toxins are all around us- in the air we breathe, the food we eat, the personal care products we use in our daily routines, the cleaning products in our homes, and more. Our bodies are expertly designed to filter them out on a constant basis, but sometimes the filters get backed up and under-effective, resulting in a toxin build up in the body which can lead to symptoms like stubborn weight, irritability or sadness, hormone imbalances, auto-immune processes, sleep difficulties and more.

We have the ability to assess the toxin load in your body though hair and urine analysis.

Pathogen

$200-$550

Pathogens include viruses, bacteria, mold, yeast overgrowth, and parasites. Like toxins, we come in contact with these every day. Some are easier for the body to fight off than others. If left unresolved, pathogens in the body can lead to a host of challenges like neurological difficulties, fertility challenges, gut and digestion issues, mood issues, anxiety, weakness and fatigue, chronic illness and more.

We have the ability to assess pathogens through stool or hair analysis.

Hormone

$200-$350

Hormones are the messengers that facilitate all of our body’s processes, from digestion to fertility, sleep, energy and mood, cellular turnover, weight regulation, and sex drive. When hormones are out of balance, we can feel like our bodies are not our own, and like we are powerless to achieve health and harmony despite our best efforts.

We have the ability to assess hormone levels through bloodwork, saliva testing,

Allergy

$300-$700

When our bodies are assaulted by material that is perceived to be an attack on the system, they have to work hard to try to combat that. Allergy responses can involve sinus and nasal symptoms, digestive difficulties, fatigue and increased susceptibility to viruses and bacteria.

We have the ability to assess a range of allergies from food to environmental through specified bloodwork.

Overall Health

Covered by Health Insurance or $75-$200 without Insurance

Routine bloodwork is helpful for assessing the overall health of the body, ensuring that we have the necessary levels of crucial vitamins and minerals, and that there are no signs of hidden disfunction in the body’s immune or detoxification processes.

We have the ability to order and review blood panels to assess overall wellness and health.

HOW TO CHOOSE

Some people come to us hungry for answers. Perhaps you have been struggling chronically, have a confusing and complex symptom profile, or have been to other doctors and not been able to get the answers and healing you are longing for. Or, perhaps, you just want a complex picture of your body’s functioning for peace of mind. Whichever the case, you may elect a comprehensive panel of labs.

Other people may want to be more targeted in their approach to lab work. Dr. Truax can utilize verbal interview, symptom review and applied kinesiology to conduct a preliminary assessment that will be used to guide his recommendations for which type of labs would be most beneficial for your unique situation.

TIME AND COST

All lab testing is done through outside laboratories in professional and clinical settings. They range in cost from free, such as routine bloodwork covered by insurance, to several hundred dollars in the case of more specified and in depth tests. We can work with you on your budget and your goals to find a lab work plan that is right for you.

Most lab results will be available within a week; some more specialized and in depth testing can take longer.
