Unique Diagnostics and Treatments
Thrive offers the following unique diagnostics and treatments that are on the cutting edge of medicine and wellness.
Vaccine Titer Testing
Titers are blood tests that accurately assess protection against diseases (distemper, parvovirus, and hepatitis in dogs, and panleukopenia in cats). Titer testing is much safer than re-vaccinating an already immune animal.
Vitamin D Testing
There is growing evidence that low stores of vitamin D are associated with a wide range of disease from skin issues to kidney problems, to cancer. Pets with low D levels may warrant dietary changes or supplementation to help prevent and fight disease.
Cancer Risk Assessment
This unique blood test gives us a cancer risk score for your pet and evaluates other areas of inflammation in your pet's body. This valuable predicative information allows us to be proactive with nutrition and other holisitic strategies to reduce inflammation and prevent cascading health problems.
Saliva Testing for Food Sensitivities
Food sensitivities can be the underlying issue in pets with skin problems, allergies, digestive and behavior issues. We use a patented salivary-based food sensitivity and intolerance test that is a reliable alternative to food elimination trials and serum-based food allergy testing.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
PEMF therapy will help your pet heal faster. Pulsed electromagnetic field frequencies help increase circulation, reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and provide pain relief. This therapy is delivered through a soft mat that your dog or cat sits on for an individually determined frequency and amount of time.
Microbiome Mapping
When a pet’s gut microbiome is unbalanced, diarrhea, skin, immune system, and weight problems can occur. Microbiome mapping helps us understand the richness and diversity of bacteria populations in your pet's digestive tract and guides support options to restore health.
General blood work, heartworm , tick screeing and urinalysis are tests that you should have done with your primary veterinarian on an annual basis or as recommended for follow-up.
