Bioresonance Scans

Pro Tip: This is our favorite testing option! Bioenergetic testing is a non-invasive energetic analysis (using hair and saliva samples) that has the ability to detect stress and measure your body’s energetic reaction to various substances.

Bioresonance scans provide a wide range of insights, including: 

  • A complete body chart depicting 14 systems and indicating the specific level of stress

  • Top 3 most stressed organs

  • Hormones out of balance

  • Nutritional imbalances

  • Food and environmental (chemicals, fragrances, EMFs) sensitivities 

  • Resonating toxins and pathogens (mold, bacteria, parasites, chemicals, metals and viruses)

  • Insight into balancing remedies (homeopathic and herbal/nutritional supplements, this greatly helps us personalize your protocol for your unique needs!)

Bioresonance Scan Logistics

  • You will receive a test kit in the mail with instructions on how to prepare a small sample of hair and saliva

  • Return your hair and saliva samples to the lab using the prepaid mailing envelope

  • Results are typically ready about 3 weeks from the time your sample was received (although results may be ready earlier)

  • You will receive a comprehensive report of the scan’s findings that we will review together

The bioresonance scan testing option is for you if…

  • You would like a comprehensive body scan to help you better understand the potential root cause of your symptoms

  • You want to take the guesswork out of unknown stressors that may be causing imbalances in your body

  • You are sensitive to supplements and want to know which remedies will best help restore balance within your body 

  • You have had multiple types of testing completed and are still looking for deeper insight into your symptoms

Blood Chemistry Labs

At Chelsea Turner Wellness, we utilize blood chemistry panels to recognize patterns using functional ranges, in order to identify potential deficiencies and imbalances.

What’s the difference between functional vs. conventional blood labs?

Conventional blood chemistry labs use a predetermined pathological range to identify and diagnose medical conditions. 

If you’ve ever visited your doctor’s office feeling anything but normal, only to hear “everything looks normal” while reviewing your labs…you know why this type of approach is not helpful

That’s because conventional labs are reviewed using a pathological range to diagnose disease once it’s already present. Chances are although you may be feeling awful, you likely fall outside of this category, hence why “everything looks normal.”

That’s where functional blood chemistry comes into play!

When blood chemistry is reviewed through a much narrower functional lens, we are able to identify potential clues and patterns that provide deeper insight into the root causes of your symptoms and WHY they are happening in the first place.

Functional Testing FAQ

If you are in our 1:1 Program, you are welcome to order multiple testing options if you would like! However, we do personally recommend starting with only 1-2 testing options (like bloodwork and/or bioresonance) vs. adding on additional testing. This helps to avoid overwhelm and to keep costs down for you. After reviewing your initial testing, your practitioner will let you know if we recommend additional testing.

Unfortunately, we cannot order labs for you if you are in one of these locations. If you are in our 1:1 Program and are located in NY, NJ or RI, we will provide you with a list of markers we would ideally like to see so that you can ask your primary care provider to order them for you. Once you have the results, you can upload them to my client portal for our review.

I suggest having blood chemistry labs completed every 6 months to 1 year.

This is a personal choice! You can either use your scan findings as a one-time way to gain deeper insight into your health or you can complete a new scan every 4-6 weeks to see what comes up next. Rescanning is helpful for identifying potential imbalances and balancing remedies as you move through layers of healing. Maintenance scans can also be completed every 6 months to 1 year. Every one of our clients is different with unique needs, connect with us to determine the best fit for you.
