Nutrition Response Testing
Nutrition response testing is used to detect nutritional deficiencies or sensitivities that can be contributing to a patient’s discomfort. During nutritional response testing, the doctor contacts various reflex points on the body while simultaneously testing the strength of the patient's extended arm. These reflex points, which correspond to various regions of the body, are based on acupuncture points. If the doctor contacts a specific reflex point where the extended arm becomes weak, he then knows the likely nutritional deficits in the body. Our office offers Standard Process whole food supplements and MediHerb herbal supplements to address these needs for our patients.
