NANCY BRITTON
EDS Technician, Sensitivity Testing
Food and environmental sensitivities can have a dramatic impact on overall health. Identifying and eliminating them can be a powerful step on your healing path. EDS is painless, non-invasive, and accurate. EDS measures both histamine and non-histamine responses to substances which many tests are not able to do. Non-histamine responses are particularly important and are directly related to symptoms such as bloating, fatigue and headaches.
Nancy Britton brings many years of experience as an advanced EDS technician to the Waterdown Clinic where she has helped to customized this testing to detect food sensitivities, the presence of candida, parasites, bacteria and viruses, exposure to heavy metals, imbalance of hormones, environmental exposures and organ stress or weakness.
Please call the office at 905-690-9151 to book an appointment.
CHANTAL MULHERN
I began experiencing challenges with my health several years ago which led to my passion for “clean eating” and my love for natural medicine. Through this experience, I realized that in order to reach optimal health and wellness our mind, body and spirit must be in balance. When my own health improved, I knew I had something to share and wanted to help others feel more like themselves, just as I had done.
I hold a designation as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist from the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition and I am also a certified Live Blood Analyst (darkfield microscopy) with Microcell Sciences Inc.
