Neurotransmitter Testing to detect Brain Neurotransmitter Imbalances!

Medical research has established a definite link between neurotransmitters and a number of conditions. Dr. Perkins is capable of assessing the results of neurotransmitter testing to address the root cause of many of the following conditions:

** Attention Issues ** Headaches

** Anxiousness / Nervousness ** Hormonal (Menopause, PMS, Libido)

** Appetite / Weight Control ** Low Mood / Depression

** Developmental Delay ** Sleep Difficulties

** Fatigue ** Basic Neurotransmitter Testing

Basing a treatment on symptoms alone (traditional medicine) will not provide the information needed to address the underlying brain imbalance. The typical depressed person leaves the office with a prescription for an antidepressant without ever having any conclusive laboratory evidence of what is causing their symptoms.

New sophisticated equipment and tests are now available to evaluate neurotransmitter imbalances using a urine and/or saliva sample. This provides a neurotransmitter baseline assessment of your neurotransmitter levels, and is useful in determining the root causes for many diseases and illnesses. Laboratory analysis can now provide precise information on brain neurotransmitter deficiencies or overloads, as well as detect hormonal and nutrient co-factor imbalances which influence neurotransmitter production. Individuals require individual solutions. Testing helps to determine exactly which neurotransmitter levels are out of balance and helps to determine which therapies are needed for an individualized treatment plan. It also helps in monitoring the effectiveness of an individual’s treatment.
