Personalized Non-Invasive Clear View Ultrasound
Compared with other diagnostic tools, ultrasound is considered safe and produces no side effects. It does not expose patients to ionizing radiation and is therefore safer than CT scans and X-rays. In most cases, ultrasound is not invasive or significantly uncomfortable. It allows for safer procedures involving a needle, catheter or other invasive devices by providing physicians with a real-time visual aid. It usually involves no needles or injections and never requires an incision. Furthermore, ultrasound is comparatively inexpensive and is available in many kinds of healthcare facilities and even as easily transported mobile equipment. Many conditions that are hard to diagnose occur in the soft tissues and structures of the body not well depicted on X-rays. Ultrasound has opened these areas up to more precise evaluation and diagnosis. For these and other reasons, ultrasound has become indispensable in medicine.

Ultrasound: One and Only Safety Concern
The only ultrasound safety concern that has been raised to any significant degree is in the case of fetal ultrasound. Is ultrasound safe for the developing fetus? The risks of ultrasound during pregnancy are largely unknown because few large-scale studies have addressed this question in depth. Of those studies that have looked at obstetric ultrasound safety, most occurred two or more decades ago when scanning intensities were a fraction of what is used today. Therefore, prior studies suggesting that ultrasound is not dangerous for an unborn baby may bear no relation to current fetal ultrasound practices. Some studies suggest the procedure may contribute to slower fetal growth and other problems while others show that routine prenatal ultrasound provides no benefit in normal pregnancies and may lead to a high number of babies being falsely diagnosed as high-risk. This scenario leads to a cycle of over-testing and elevated stress for the mother other family members in cases that would otherwise be treated as normal pregnancies.
Saving You Money
As a subscriber to our growing Health Network, the Professional Wellness Alliance has made special arrangements to provide you access through your PWA practitioner to a wide variety of laboratory tests at deeply discounted prices, right in your own home. These are the same tests ordered by licensed physicians and other secular healthcare providers. Ultrasound is a great affordable, convenient concise tool to get a clear view and continue monitoring your condition in the comfort of a place of your choosing.
Staying Healthy
One of the best ways to prevent disease is to make sure you and your family members have comprehensive vital organ screening completed annually. Getting tested puts your health in your hands.
Prevention and early detection of problems are a vital part of every person’s your health maintenance program! Importantly, a simple blood test could help save your life.
​
Healthy Recovery
Comprehensive laboratory testing is also a valuable tool in determining the root cause of symptoms of chronic illness and regaining your health.
​
What Testing Involves
When you have your blood tested, medical laboratory scientists and trained technicians perform complex chemical, biological, hematological, immunologic, microscopic and bacteriological tests, requiring significant analytical and independent judgment. They then analyze your test results and report them in writing. In recent years, there has been a marked growth in genetic and genomic testing that identifies the unique genetic profile of individuals and their chronic health conditions.
​
Today, more than 7 billion clinical lab tests are performed in the U.S. each year, providing valuable data for a relatively small cost.
​
How Test Results Are Used
Conventional medical physicians use a variety of laboratory tests, as well as genetic profiles, to confirm their diagnosis of disease and make treatment decisions, including what pharmaceutical drugs they may choose to prescribe to their patients.
​
In contrast, because traditional Naturopathic healthcare practice is not concerned with diagnosing or treating or curing specific illness or disease, we will look at your test results together to identify areas in which your body may have nutritional or body system deficiencies and/or not be functioning at optimal level.
​
​
How to Order Tests
You can now order tests yourself directly or I as your PWA practitioner will assist you in selecting the right tests and evaluating test results from the perspective of correcting imbalances and/or improving function. Of course, to assure you get the most benefit from your test results, we recommend that you always seek professional consultation.
