Winter Park Chiropractic uses blood testing for thyroid testing-this is complimentary for new patients:

Method
Bloodspot is collected in the morning before eating or drinking.  The process involves a finger prick with lancet and a few drops of blood dried on filter paper.  Kit is self-contained with step-by-step instructions, filter paper, 2 lancets, antiseptic wipes and band-aid.  Blood spot sample is returned to lab for analysis via pre-paid UPS mailer bag.
Advantages

•No Phlebotomist or centrifuging required.
•Nearly painless finger prick, simple and safe.
•Private (collected in your own home) convenient for both patient and doctor.
•Hormones are stable in dried bloodspot at room temperature for weeks allowing for worldwide shipment.

This test allows Winter Park Chiropractic the following advantages for patients:
•Identify hidden hormonal deficiences associated with aging and disease, thyroid dysfunction and symptoms of menopause and andropause in their patients.
•Maintain optimal health and prevent disease through early detection or hormonal imbalance.
•Link clinical symptoms to specific hormone imbalances flagged in testing.
•Restore hormonal balance and patient quality of life using test results as a rational basis for treatment.
