Oligoscan Treatment at London Natural Therapies
Welcome to London Natural Therapies, where we introduce Oligoscan, arguably the most accurate heavy metal and mineral test available to help you achieve optimal health and well-being.
What is Oligoscan?
Oligoscan is an intracellular test for heavy metals, minerals and trace elements via Spectrophotometry (Full Visible Light Spectrum). The scan reports on 43 elements (21 minerals, 16 heavy metals, and Vitamins A, B6, B9, B12, C, D, E).
How Does Oligoscan Work?
The scan is non-invasive, measuring the tissue of the palm of the hand (Peripheral Tissue) directly in the workspace with a portable & compatible spectrophotometer device. The collected data is sent to the secure central Oligoscan server and the test report results are immediate. The data serves as an invaluable nutritional assessment for actual tissue levels of minerals as opposed to other testing methods, which are only indicative of what is being excreted from a particular vector of the body. This test provides an understanding of one’s intracellular heavy metals & minerals 4mm under the dermis of the skin. The spectrophotometry therefore provides a different view of the uptake of nutrients in everyone tested.
Advantages of Oligoscan in comparison to ‘traditional tests’.
Blood, hair and urine tests are not intracellular and therefore, just show either acute exposure, or your systems capacity to excrete toxins. Hence, these traditional tests are not an accurate measure of minerals and toxins at actual tissue level for the following reasons:
Including:
- Blood Test represents what is currently in circulation at that moment. Because it is the body’s Transportation System of nutrients, the body will naturally push or “dump” toxins that enter the bloodstream immediately into the peripheral, fatty, and organ tissues, to stabilise normal bodily functions, so whilst it will show there are heavy metals or toxins, it will not give an accurate picture of what is in the body.
- Hair Mineral Analysis Test represents what has been excreted in the last 3 months. 90% of human scalp hair is in the growth phase, therefore during this time, elements from the follicular cells and their blood supply are incorporated into hair. The more toxic metals that are in organ cells, therefore, do not show in the same capacity i.e Autistic Spectrum Disorder, so if a patient is a poor excreter, as seen with many chronically ill individuals, the toxic elements may appear under-represented in hair tissue.
- Urine (Provocation) test shows the extent to which the body can excrete metals. In a normal sample, almost nothing is excreted, however when the body is provoked (e.g. EDTA, DMPS, DMSA), increased metal concentrations are found aka challenge test. So, whilst this is useful to test excretion capability, chelation agents do not penetrate cell membranes, they only determine the amount of metals within the Extracellular space.
Summary:
The Oligoscan is a far superior way of testing! The Oligoscan is a valuable tool in both clinical and wellness settings as it offers the following benefits:
Benefits of the Oligoscan:
- Safe, Non-invasive Testing – The Oligoscan does not require needles or sample collection making the process quick, painless, stress-free and safe for everyone.
- Instant Results – The Oligoscan provides immediate feedback, supporting on-the-spot discussion and analysis of the results. This is particularly useful when developing a bespoke treatment plan where a timely intervention can be crucial.
- Detailed Analysis – The Oligoscan measures minerals, vitamins and heavy metals, providing a comprehensive view of a person’s micronutrient status and toxic metal exposure.
- Preventive Health – By identifying a clear intracellular picture, the Oligoscan enables proactive management of health, potentially preventing the onset of chronic conditions related to mineral imbalances and heavy metal toxicity.
- Personalised Interventions – With detailed information on a patient’s mineral and metal levels, we can tailor treatment to meet individual needs, optimising dietary, supplement, and detoxification strategies.
