As a naturopathic physician Dr. Wilson can use laboratory testing and also the assessments of Complementary and Alternative Medicine to gain valuable information to guide the choices for individualized treatments. Other tests that assess the function of the Vis medicatrix naturae may include: HRV, AcuGraph, NES ProVision assessment, Biofeedback, Brain Mapping.

 

Book:  Laboratory Evaluations for Integrative and Functional Medicine [more]

A landmark text; used by the Academy of Functional Medicine, Dentistry and Psychology [see below].

Over 3800 citations make Laboratory Evaluations for Integrative and Functional Medicine your evidence-based resource for the biochemical basis of chronic illness. A must-have desk reference for laboratory testing associated with nutritional and metabolic medicine. See the videos below of Dr. J. Alexander Bralley discussing testing of Organic Acids to give clues about genetic metabolic variations, and of Dr. Todd LePine discussing "The Gut-Brain Connection: An Inside Look at Depression."

"Laboratory Evaluations for Integrative and Functional Medicine is giant contribution to the field of 21st century medicine.  It provides a well-researched roadmap to aid practitioners in evaluating disease along the continuum from pre-clinical biochemical and metabolic dysfunction to full blown clinical symptoms and disease.  It is an essential reference for clinicians seeking to practice the medicine of the future today."                                              -Dr. Mark Hyman, MD [info]

Love Creates Pioneers (in medicine)


Laboratory screening test can now avert tragic delay in
obtaining targeted nutritional supplementation
to change the course of "untreatable" conditions.

See article with link to NPR program
about heroic measures of loving parents whose
dedication helped their children because
they refused to accept an "obvious" diagnosis.

Learning About Laboratory Testing

Educational Resource: Visit their informative page with descriptions, diagrams, Reference Library and more. Extensive information about neurotransmitter testing that can remove a lot of the "guesswork" of creating integrative medicine programs for health of both body and mind. [click here]

Detoxigenomics Profile test
This detects genetic polymorphisms that cause the production of inefficient enzymes (or totally absent enzymes).
Discovering a person's Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) allows for treatment using nutritional enhancement
and other compensations that help protect from inefficient metabolism.
