Wellness Exams Q & A

What are wellness exams?

Wellness exams explore various parameters of your health so you can develop a better understanding of your own needs. The team at Illumen Aesthetics & Wellness provides detailed wellness exams to review your health and make personalized recommendations for the next steps in your health care. 

Most wellness exams start with a review of your medical history before moving on to a physical exam and various medical tests. The team at Illumen Aesthetics & Wellness asks you questions about your lifestyle and habits to contextualize their findings and offer tailored recommendations for improvement. 

Which tests happen during wellness exams?

Illumen Aesthetics & Wellness specializes in using comprehensive testing to find answers to questions related to your health. They gather various measurements and can tell you what their findings mean. Your wellness exam can include the following tests:

Anti-inflammatory markers

Anti-inflammatory markers check for proteins in your bloodstream that indicate inflammation somewhere in your body. Inflammation can indicate several chronic diseases, and chronic inflammation is often present with diabetes, obesity, and other health conditions. 

Genetic markers

Genetic markers search for variants in your DNA. You can use these tests to find out which genetic conditions run in your family for your own sake or ahead of pregnancy for your future children. 

Gastrointestinal (GI) health testing

Various GI tests help identify conditions that impact your digestive system, including bacterial and fungal infections. 

Food sensitivity testing

Food sensitivities involve an immune response to a given food you eat, resulting in symptoms like bloating, brain fog, and headaches. By getting answers through food sensitivity testing, you can adjust your diet to accommodate your health. 

What might my provider recommend after a wellness exam?
