OligoScan Advanced Cellular Testing

At Clinicbe, we are among the select few skincare clinics in the UK who have access to a sophisticated and innovative way of cellular testing: OligoScan.

This cellular testing technique incorporates spectrophotometry technology to measure:

  • Mineral deficiencies
  • Intracellular antioxidant levels
  • Heavy metal accumulation

Many UK adults are deficient in certain nutrients and minerals, perhaps largely due to a busy lifestyle and too much dependence on takeouts and pre-prepared food. Heavy metal toxicity poses a serious threat to human health – something which can be accumulated easily through polluted air or contaminated food and water.

An OligoScan report can give a real insight into mineral deficiencies, heavy metal accumulation, and antioxidants present in the body – these advanced tests can not only detect toxic heavy metals in the body but also assess the risk of predisposition to certain health conditions like diabetes or cardiovascular diseases

How does OligoScan Advanced Cellular Testing work?

The OligoScan cellular testing system requires no injections, blood, stool or urine sample. It is not only convenient but completely pain free.

Results are far more accurate than a blood test and can be delivered instantly so that early diagnosis and treatment, if required, can be started, which may include certain dietary and supplemental protocols, so that a patient’s overall health and wellbeing can be restored.

What does OligoScan do?

Once a patient’s essential data has been entered in the software, the OligiScan is pressed against all four points of the palm – a light beam determines the electromagnetic signal intensity which is referenced against 34 elements found in the body – the software delivers result in a comprehensive report. 

The report is delivered on three detailed pages:

  1. The first page displays the quantity of 20 minerals and trace elements found in the body and whether they are above or below the normal range.
  2. The second page shows the presence of heavy metals against 14 known types and the amount of oxidative damage they may have done to the body.
  3. The final page shows the degree of acidity found in the body which can indicate the onset of certain allergies or predisposition to diabetes, for example.

OligoScan is ideal for those who need to understand their current health – data which cannot be revealed through a standard blood test. Results are instant and pain-free as there is no blood sample taking or injections involved.

The test includes a consultation with one of our therapists to interpret the scan completely and recommend the diet, supplemental and lifestyle changes required to enjoy good health all year round.

“Once we have a deeper understanding of an individual’s health on a cellular level, we can recommend specific treatments, programmes, supplements and lifestyle changes (including medication) to improve their overall health and sense of wellbeing.

“Having highly accurate details on antioxidant levels within the body, heavy metal accumulation and miner deficiencies give us insights into what issues may be causing an individual to feel “under the weather” or at risk of serious health conditions.

“Symptoms like insomnia, constant tiredness, chronic stress, etc. should not be taken lightly; an OligoScan allows us to identify deficiencies and presence of toxic materials which may be causing some or all of the aforementioned symptoms.”
