BioTerrain Analysis

Our clinic offers the exciting BioTerrain Assessment Analysis. This new technology allows our doctors and consultants the ability to measure the biological health inside your body. Through these tests the inner environment can be assessed and systematically balanced through natural supplements, change in diet, and modifications in lifestyle. By treating this fertile ground to health or illness we can reach optimal health faster and head off disease by balancing the body's chemistry.

The bioterrain assessment utilizes blood, urine, saliva, electrical measurement, body palpation, body rhythms and more to provide a total system picture.

B-T-Analysis makes early recognition of the following possible (for example):

Unbalanced acid-base metabolism

Bacterial and viral infections

Chronic intoxication

Malign events

Mineral deficiency

Mycosis stress in the intestinal tract

Acute liver, gall bladder and pancreas malfunctions

Chronic prostatitis

Thrombophilia

Anemia and polyglobules

Diabetes

Mesenchymal alkalosis and acidosis

(Above examples taken from 33 differential diagnoses)

Biological Terrain practitioners clinically monitor the entire internal biochemical environment of the body. The goal is to gain a deeper understanding of the in-depth elements within the patients chemistry and prescribe the exact forms of treatment to help the patients regain and maintain a healthy internal biochemical environment. Doing so at a chemical level can then, in time, translate vitality and health to every cell, tissue, organ and gland within the patients body.

The specimens of blood, urine, and saliva are analyzed by a device called a BTA S-2000, which determines the pH, resistivity, and redox values of each of these fluids.

These factors are the indicators of the nature and processes of the individual's unique biochemistry, including the current status and activities of its enzymes, amino acids and other vital building blocks of life.

The pH of these fluids can indicate whether the patient's system is too acidic or too alkaline, whether enzymatic activity in the body is occurring properly and if digestion and absorption of vitamins, minerals and nutrients are occurring adequately. It can also alert the health-care provider of the presence of damaging environmental or industrial contaminants, substances that can prove very damaging to the body's delicate chemistry.

The oxidation-reduction values indicate the state of oxygen in the individual's system. Because of the effects of stress, poor air and food quality, and the lack of aerobic exercise typical of most Americans, these values are generally much lower than they should be to sustain a healthy body. If these values remain low for extended periods of time, the body becomes more susceptible to illness, disease, degeneration and premature aging.

The three redox values that are obtained and studied give the practitioner important information about the electron potential and movement within the body. Such information alerts the health provider of the degree of oxidative damage as well as the potential of vital and life-sustaining chemical reactions.

The nine values are then analyzed and plotted by the instrument's computer software onto a report that contains graphs and charts. The data are then assessed by the practitioner and used as a teaching guide to share with the patient.

Although the testing procedure does not diagnose any specific pathology or disease states, it does serve as an analytical guide post that tremendously aids in the overall evaluation of the patient.

Most Biological Terrain practitioners also incorporate many other forms of objective and subjective examinations and evaluations that, coupled with BTA S-2000 data, provide a deeper understanding of the biochemistry that is being affected or compromised.

This, in turn, enables the practitioner to formulate a very accurate diagnosis and precise treatment protocol.
