Rubimed Therapy Rubimed Therapy and the RebaPad device are offered by Dr. Ana Nozari, ND at Pinewood Natural Health Centre. This system has been used in Europe for over 20 years by many medical and naturopathic doctors. A two year study (see study) conducted in 10 European clinics with [...]
RebaPad What is RebaPad? The RebaPad is a certified medical device that uses a polyfrequency spectrum (PFS) to confront the body with neutral vibrations to objectively test the entire energetic conditions. This process is non-invasive (it does not puncture the skin) and does not give shocks. Rebapad device measures your [...]
Electrodermal Screening Electrodermal Screening is the measurement of the body's acupuncture points and meridian systems. It is a blend of technology and traditional Chinese medical theory. The process consists of the individual holding a brass rod in one hand, while the Naturopathic Doctor touches a certain point on the [...]
Laboratory Blood Testing Laboratory blood tests reveal parameters that can indicate not only medical problems, but can also be an indicator of overall health. When analyzing traditional laboratory tests, physicians will evaluate the results for "normal" levels. At Pinewood, we analyze blood results for "optimal" levels. Optimal levels indicate [...]
Darkfield Microscopy Darkfield microscopy uses whole blood, drawn from the fingertip then placed under the microscope unstained. It uses higher magnification with a darkfield lens and specialized lighting that allows one to see much more than could possibly be seen by conventional and phase contrast microscopes. Darkfield Microscopy can [...]
Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis or Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) is a method of assessing your "body composition"; the measurement of body fat in relation to lean body mass. It is an integral part of a health and nutrition assessment. Bioimpedance Analysis measures the impedance or opposition of the [...]
Heavy Metal Screening Heavy metal testing can be done through the hair, blood or urine. Each type of test reveals different information: hair analysis looks at chronic exposure in the tissue; blood assesses acute exposure, and urine measures the body's ability to eliminate heavy metals. Heavy metal testing is [...]
Bio-regulatory Thermography Bio-regulatory Thermography is a diagnostic test of bioregulation (feedback) that measures the body's response to temperature change in the forehead, face, back abdomen and breasts. Two sets of measurements using a gentle temperature probe are obtained - the first without stress and the second with the [...]
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) A heart rate variability (HRV) test is used to help assess your nervous system. The nervous system creates proper heart function and ultimately leads to good health. During the test, you will wear a heart rate monitor that will record fluctuations and variations of your [...]
Biological Terrain Assessment (BTA) BTA is an examination of a person's internal biochemical environment. Through proven laboratory tests, blood, urine, and saliva are collected and tested to show us how well a person's different regulatory systems are working and communicating with each other. These tests analyze pH levels, [...]
