Live Blood Analysis is a screening method that involves taking a small blood sample from your fingertip using a sterile lancet. The sample is immediately placed on a microscope slide and examined under darkfield microscopy, which magnifies the blood up to 1000 times and provides a dynamic, nearly three-dimensional view of your blood cells and plasma. The process is displayed on a monitor, allowing you to observe your blood in real time.

During the session, we observe the movement and appearance of red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, and other visible elements within the sample. Since blood begins to change once outside the body, observing how it behaves over time may offer insights into patterns related to diet, lifestyle, stress, and overall wellness.

Unlike conventional lab testing, which measures specific blood markers, Live Blood Analysis focuses on the visual quality and condition of the blood as part of a broader wellness assessment and preventive health approach.

How is the blood sample taken?
A simple capillary finger prick is performed using a sterile diabetic lancet—similar to the method used by individuals checking blood sugar levels. Two small drops of blood are collected: one for the live sample and one for the dried blood analysis. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and performed safely as part of my certified training through the Edison Institute of Nutrition.

Depending on the irregularities found in the blood, the Live blood Cell analysis could reveal the following:

·         Immune System Function

·         Free Radical Cellular Damage

·         Cell Size & Shape Abnormalities

·         Early Recognition of Cardiovascular   

                Risk Factors

·         Essential Fatty Acid Deficiencies

·         Vitamin & Mineral Deficiencies

·         Digestive Disorders

·         Low Iron/ Anemia

·         Atherosclerotic Plaque

·         Allergies Tendencies

·         Hormonal Imbalances

·         Uric Acid Crystal & Risk for Gout

·         Kidney/Liver/Spleen Stress

·         Chemical/Heavy Metal Toxicity

·         Degenerative Disorders

·         Parasites

·         Dehydration

·         Poor Blood Circulation

·         Clotting Abnormalities

·         Bacterial Imbalances

·         Yeast/Fungal Tendencies

During the Dry Blood Analysis procedure, a client's fingertip is pricked to produce a small droplet of blood.

 This droplet is left on the finger for approximately 30 seconds to allow the process of clotting to occur. Afterward, a microscope slide is gently pressed onto the blood droplet eight times. The slide is then set aside to dry, which typically takes around 15 minutes. 

During this drying period, the eight layers of blood on the slide undergo a remarkable transformation.

Dry Blood Analysis is an effective tool to look at as it shows the body's health state by looking at the layers in the dry blood.  The centre of the blood cell represents the digestive tract, adrenals and our psycho-spiritual health state, while the layers surrounding represents organs, lymph system, bones, spine and skin.  Here, we are able to look at how the body may be healing from a past injury or trauma and see how the present health state is effected or we can see if there are new developments in the most present imprint in the cell.  Every experience, we encounter is imprinted in our blood, as well as our emotional state.   

Dry Blood Analysis could reveal the following:

Detect the presence of inflammation

Assess the progression of inflammatory processes - chronic or acute

Determine the location of the inflammatory process – organ, tissue or system specific

Monitor the progression or reduction of the inflammatory process

Detect heavy metal toxicity

Reveal the presence of parasites

Show mineral and vitamin imbalances

Show antibiotic damage

Detect bowel inflammation

Assess the lymphatic burden

Assess protein metabolism

Thyroid/Endocrine imbalances
