Richard Powers, DC
Chiropractic, neurological, and orthopedic examination; a blood profile (focusing on immunological markers); and toxicity and dysbiosis questionnaires.
(1) Chiropractic, orthopedic, and neurological testing – to rule in/out subluxation
(2) Blood tests – test for autoantibodies, inflammation (minimally)
(3) A Toxicity Questionnaire – assess her toxic load (and to establish a baseline)
(4) A Dysbiosis Questionnaire – assess probability of gut microbial imbalance
Findings:
Examination – standard orthopedic and neurological tests are WNL; multiple subluxations identified in cervical and lumbar spines.
Toxicity questionnaire revealed an indication of excessive toxic body burden.
Dysbiosis questionnaire revealed a low score (decreasing the probability of major gut challenges).
Blood tests – negative for ANA and TPO-antibodies, elevated hs-CRP.
