Take control of your health with the Salerno Wellness Holistic Physical, a comprehensive evaluation designed to provide a complete picture of your well-being. This innovative physical goes beyond a standard check-up by combining an in-depth patient consultation with a suite of advanced diagnostic tests. We look deeper to identify underlying issues, assess your unique risks, and create a proactive roadmap for your long-term health. This isn't just about finding problems; it's about building a foundation for a healthier, more vibrant life.
Patient Consultation
How are you feeling? Your journey begins with a thorough consultation led by our expert medical team. During this initial meeting, we take the time to discuss your complete health history, any current symptoms, and your wellness goals in detail. We encourage open communication so you can share concerns or questions about your health, lifestyle, and family history. This conversation helps us gain a holistic understanding of your unique risks and individual needs.
By identifying patterns or potential red flags early, we can tailor your assessment and testing process for the most relevant and meaningful results. The insights gathered from your consultation ensure that every aspect of your physical is personalized and designed to provide the clearest path to long-term well-being.
Advanced Cancer Screening
Early detection is a powerful tool in health management, especially given that over 20% of the people in the United States die from some form of cancer. Our holistic physical includes an advanced multi-cancer screening that can identify signals for more than 50 different types of cancer through a single blood draw.
Many of these cancers, such as pancreatic or ovarian, do not have routine screening options available, making broad testing especially valuable. The screening analyzes your DNA for specific patterns associated with cancer, so potential issues can be caught at their earliest and most treatable stages. By catching cancer early, you greatly increase your odds of successful treatment and improved long-term outcomes.
This test is non-invasive and quick, yet it can provide valuable medical insights that may otherwise be missed during regular checkups. It is ideal for individuals who want a proactive approach to their health, including those with a family history of cancer or those seeking extra peace of mind. Gaining this insight provides peace of mind and empowers you to make informed decisions about your health. Gaining this insight provides peace of mind and empowers you to make informed decisions about your health.
Heavy Metals Test
Exposure to heavy metals like lead, mercury, and arsenic is a growing concern. These toxins can accumulate in your body over time, contributing to a wide range of health issues, including chronic fatigue, brain fog, headaches, and autoimmune conditions. Even at low levels, heavy metals can disrupt the normal functioning of your organs and immune system, leading to chronic, unexplained symptoms that often go undiagnosed.
The Salerno Heavy Metals Test is a specialized diagnostic that measures the toxic burden in your system through a safe, minimally invasive process—usually involving a urine or blood sample after a chelating agent is administered to draw out stored toxins. This testing method allows for the most accurate detection of both recent and long-term heavy metal accumulation.
By identifying the presence and levels of these harmful substances, we can develop a targeted detoxification strategy to help restore your body’s natural balance and improve your overall vitality. Knowing your heavy metal status empowers you to take concrete steps toward reducing exposure and preventing future health problems. Patients often report increased energy, clarity, and general well-being after following a personalized detox plan based on their results.
Allergy Test
Unexplained symptoms like skin rashes, digestive issues, persistent sneezing, or sinus congestion can often be traced back to allergies. Our comprehensive Allergy Test is designed to thoroughly identify the specific substances—such as pollen, pet dander, dust mites, or foods—that are provoking your immune system. The process may include a combination of skin prick testing and advanced blood tests to ensure the most accurate results.
Each test is conducted in a comfortable environment, with careful attention to your safety and experience. Once we pinpoint your allergens, our clinical team interprets the results within the context of your unique health story and symptoms. This knowledge serves as the foundation for a highly personalized management plan, which may include targeted avoidance strategies, nutritional recommendations, or even immunotherapy in select cases.
By empowering you with this detailed understanding and practical support, we help you minimize or even eliminate allergy triggers from your life. The result is significant relief from frustrating symptoms and a noticeable improvement in your daily comfort and overall quality of life.
Urine Total Toxicity Test
Your body is constantly processing substances from the air you breathe, the food you eat, and the products you use, leading to the accumulation of toxins over time. The Urine Total Toxicity Test offers a comprehensive assessment of your body's "toxic load" by measuring levels of various environmental pollutants, heavy metals, and chemical byproducts excreted in your urine. This simple, non-invasive test requires providing a urine sample, which is then analyzed in a specialized laboratory for a broad spectrum of potentially harmful substances.
By evaluating how effectively your body is eliminating these toxins, the test delivers a clear snapshot of your detoxification efficiency and potential vulnerabilities. Discovering elevated toxin levels can help identify hidden contributors to symptoms like chronic fatigue, digestive upset, and even hormonal or metabolic imbalances. With these results, our team can develop a targeted plan—often including dietary adjustments, supportive supplements, or lifestyle modifications—to help enhance your detox pathways and minimize future toxic exposure.
Taking this proactive approach is vital for preventing the development of more serious, long-term health problems linked to toxin buildup. Ultimately, the Urine Total Toxicity Test is a powerful tool that provides actionable insights, enabling you to take control of your health and well-being with confidence.
Patient Case Study: The Reason We Started Offering Holistic Physicals
Megan came to Salerno Wellness feeling frustrated by ongoing fatigue, frequent headaches, and unexplained digestive issues that traditional checkups hadn’t resolved. During her comprehensive patient consultation, she expressed concerns about her long-term health and a desire to better understand what was underlying her symptoms. Megan underwent the full suite of holistic physical tests, including advanced cancer screening, a heavy metals test, an allergy test, and a urine total toxicity test.
The cancer screening provided much-needed peace of mind, revealing no early signs of cancer. Her heavy metals test, however, uncovered elevated mercury levels, while the allergy test identified a previously unknown sensitivity to certain foods. Megan’s urine total toxicity test showed that her body was under increased stress from environmental pollutants.
With this information, Dr. Salerno crafted a personalized care plan that included targeted detoxification, dietary adjustments, and strategies to reduce her toxic load. Within a few months, Megan reported higher energy, fewer headaches, and a renewed sense of well-being, grateful for the holistic approach that finally addressed the root causes of her health challenges.
Had Megan Not Seen Dr. Salerno
Had Megan not undergone the holistic physical, her symptoms could have continued to disrupt her daily life and potentially worsened over time. Elevated mercury levels, if left undetected, might have contributed to further neurological issues or chronic fatigue, while ongoing exposure to food allergens could have led to greater digestive distress and inflammation.
Without identifying her body’s high toxic load, the accumulation of environmental pollutants may have increased her risk for more serious health problems in the future. Instead of achieving relief and healing, Megan may have faced ongoing frustration, unnecessary suffering, and possible complications that would have been preventable with the right insights and intervention.
