No one wants to feel sick, lethargic or morose. These feelings can be due to something wrong physically. Such feelings can be attributed to anything and everything if one goes to the internet and google symptoms of ailments. However, information garnered without advice from physicians can be tremendously distressing. Self diagnosis is never good.

The four points to scan

There are ways to find out what is wrong actually such as visiting a doctor and getting diagnoses.

But, there is another way and that is to find out what is wrong within one’s body and to balance what is needed to ensure wellness.

As we all know, the body is made up of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus with a little potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium. But all these are necessary to life. More of some and less of the others can be detrimental to one’s health.

To find out if one has a good balance of all these items, go for the OligoScan. This machine can scan up to 31 Minerals, 20 Heavy Metals, Acidosis and Gut Health.

The findings can allow the caregiver or doctors to advice patients of nutrition they need to take and make lifestyle changes.  This allows patients regain homeostatic balance of the minerals and eliminate the toxic metals.

The doctors may allow concoct supplements to provide patients with the balanced minerals. After analysing the results, and based on the deficiencies and risk prole, they compound these minerals into a customised vitamin and supplement capsule to meet patients individual needs.

There is an expert on OligoScan in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah; Dr. Sarah -Jane Khong, who visits once every month to meet with patients in the State Capital.

She shared that there is not too much awareness about this technique here although the response in Peninsula Malaysia is encouraging.

Dr. Sarah is actually an anti aging and integrative medicine consultant said  the procedure is quite simple and absolutely painless. She just scan four points on one’s palm, and after a few minutes the findings flash out in the computer.

The findings are then read by her and then she will make an assessment. She will then advise the patient on the reading and recommend supplements to boost the system.
