Find the source of your allergies
Knowing where your allergies come from changes everything. It gives you clarity on how to prevent your symptoms, and direction on how to begin treating them at the source.
What Do We Test For?
Food Allergies
Testing for sensitivity and allergic reactivity towards a full list of up to 184 everyday foods.
Seasonal Allergies
Testing for allergic reactions caused by a variety of common seasonal airborne allergens.
Environmental Sensitivities
Testing for sensitivity to allergens in the environment like mold, animals, and chemicals.
COMPLETE REACTIVITY TESTING
It can take hours before sensitivities and allergic reactions are noticeable, making it hard for you to know what caused them.
By measuring the allergen-specific antibody load in your white blood cells, our serum tests check for both immediate and delayed reactions, ensuring you get accurate results that help you make better health choices.
TESTING IS JUST THE FIRST STEP
Low dose allergen therapy can help you overcome allergy symptoms for good.

Common Allergy Testing Questions
How much does an allergy test cost?
The cost of an allergy test depends on the type of allergy test you receive and the number of allergens that you’re assessed for.
How do you get allergy tested?
We use what’s known as a serum allergy test. It’s conducted by drawing a small amount of blood from you, then analyzing it to measure the amount of allergen-specific antibodies in your white blood cells. This lets us determine which substances you’re allergic or sensitive towards.
Can allergies be cured?
Allergies can’t be “cured” with medication or surgery, but their effects can be controlled and reduced in some cases with low dose allergen immunotherapy (often shortened to LDA therapy) which gradually builds up the body’s tolerance.
