Allergy Testing

What should I expect before allergy testing?

The team at Allergy & Environmental Treatment Center, LLC, takes a comprehensive approach to allergy testing. To identify the true source of your symptoms, your provider completes a physical examination and talks with you about medical, environmental, and lifestyle issues such as:

  • What symptoms you experience
  • When your symptoms occur
  • Medications and supplements you take
  • Environmental exposures when you were a child and an adult
  • Prior illnesses and other aspects of your medical history
  • What types of foods you eat
  • Your exposure to chemicals at home, school, or work

Since allergy symptoms can mimic many possible underlying problems, a comprehensive evaluation ensures that your provider identifies the possible sources of your symptoms and develops the best treatment plan.


What happens during allergy testing?

The team at Allergy & Environmental Treatment Center,LLC prefers to use intradermal skin testing.

Intradermal skin testing is more sensitive and produces more consistent results compared to other forms of allergy testing. Intradermal testing also allows your provider to find a safe starting dose for immunotherapy.

During intradermal skin testing, your provider injects a small dose of a potential allergen under your skin. Then you wait a short time and your provider evaluates the injection site. 

The extensive allergy testing conducted by the team at Allergy & Environmental Treatment Center can take some time to complete and is generally done over several sessions. 


What other tests might I receive during allergy testing?

The team at Allergy & Environmental Treatment Center, LLC uses a comprehensive approach to help determine and target the root cause of allergies. Other tools and testing they might recommend include: 

SpectraCell Laboratories micronutrient testing

SpectraCell’s micronutrient test measures 31 vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, and fatty acids. This detailed test reveals if you have any nutritional deficiencies which may contribute to your symptoms.

Diagnostic stool analysis

Depending on the type of stool test, a stool analysis can reveal problems with digestion, nutrient absorption, inflammatory markers, and bacterial infections.
