Sensitivity and Allergy Testing

Sensitivity and allergy testing identify how your immune system reacts to specific substances. Allergy testing, often via skin pricks or blood samples, detects immediate, allergic responses caused by immune system overreactions to things like pollen, dust, or certain foods. Sensitivity testing assesses delayed reactions or non-IgE mediated responses, which can cause more subtle or chronic symptoms. These tests help identify triggers to manage or avoid, improving health and comfort. Consulting a healthcare professional ensures proper interpretation of results and personalized advice.
