“Allergy testing with the ELISA/ACT Biotechnologies is one of the most rewarding services we offer at Trillium Health & Wellness,” according to Dr. Erika Mennerick. The test covers foods, additives, preservatives, environmental chemicals (i.e. pesticides), and molds, and is performed with a single blood draw. The results are presented in an easy to understand format with assistance in implementing changes into your diet. This test is helpful for chronic allergy sufferers and those with unexplained rashes, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, digestive problems like abdominal pain, constipation and diarrhea. Testing starts at $300 (not covered by insurance).

In-office blood draws are also available for routine blood work such as screening for cholesterol, thyroid, anemia, liver enzymes and more. These are often covered by insurance.

Specialized tests include:

• Delayed sensitivity allergy testing (previously mentioned)
• Microbiology stool testing- helpful for constipation/diarrhea, fibromyalgia, psoriasis, acne, rheumatoid arthritis, and more
• Saliva female hormone profiles- PMS, irregular cycles, peri-menopause, PCOS
• Urine neurotransmitter testing- insomnia, stress & fatigue, anxiety, ADHD
