Why Is Dark-Field Microscopy Blood Analysis Important?
“What are you looking for when you put my blood under the microscope?”
I am asked this question every single day.
The short answer is, I am using a drop of a patient’s blood as “point of care testing” to determine the patient’s state of health. And to be more specific, I am looking for 100 different potential patterns to determine which of the patient’s physiological systems are the most out of balance.
The blood is somewhat like an onion. At every visit, a drop of a patient’s blood shows me what is happening in that exact moment in the body - not yesterday, not tomorrow, but today. The patterns I see under the microscope lead me to what part of a patient’s health story I should focus on next. For example:
Are the hormones struggling?
How healthy is the gastrointestinal function?
Has enough detoxification been done?
It is time to address heavy metals?
Does the nervous system need support?
WHY IS DARK-FIELD MICROSCOPY BLOOD ANALYSIS IMPORTANT?
Many of my patients have heard me say, “The blood doesn’t lie”. The way a patient describes their symptoms to me may ultimately be confusing or my misinterpretation of their words can mislead me – but if I look at the blood there is no mistake as to what is going on. Many patients have told me “my gut is fine”, only to find out otherwise once I look at their blood under the microscope. This procedure is the ultimate “medical lie detector”.
A patient under my care will also notice that I am constantly changing the remedies I am using in their treatment. As one layer of the onion is peeled back, the body is ready for the next set of remedies to move to a higher state of health. It doesn’t make sense to the use a remedy the patient’s body needed a few months ago. As the physiology changes, a new course of action is taken.
As many patients may not relish in getting their finger pricked during a doctor’s visit, I hope is they can understand how invaluable this technique is in helping them reach their highest health potential.
Good Luck and Good health,
