A check-up to better understand
the causes of your emotional and functional disorders

Persistent fatigue, hypersensitivity, anxiety, sleep disorders, difficulty concentrating, feeling of unease… All these signals may be linked to an imbalance in neurotransmitters.

This check-up offers a detailed reading of these chemical messengers, to highlight your treatment history and better understand the origin of your symptoms.

Who is it for?

  • You feel a chronic fatigue, diffuse unease or mood disorders,
  • You suffer from anxiety, hypersensitivity or sleep disorders,
  • You are affected by attention deficit disorders (ADD/ADHD), compulsions or addictive behaviours,
  • You are undergoing neuroactive treatment and want to better understand its impact.

Why should I do
the NeuroCheck check-up?

Explore the biological origins of your feelings

Neurotransmitters play a key role in our emotions, energy, behavior. This check-up helps you to better understand this balance

Better target a therapeutic support

By providing reliable data to your healthcare professional, this test can be used to guide a more personalized care (treatment, nutrition, lifestyle habits, etc.)

Complete a preventive or follow-up approach

This check-up can be part of a care or self-awareness program, in line with sustainable wellness objectives

Advantages of this check-up

  • Understand what influences your emotional, cognitive or nervous state
  • Identify potentiel imbalances or neurochemical overloads
  • Support a therapeutic approach with concrete data
  • Explore an option that is still rarely explored in conventional medicine

What is the purpose of this check-up?

This check-up explores neurotransmitters in two ways:

  • In the periphery (inside the body)
    Dopamine, adrenaline, noradrenaline and serotonin (in urine), salivary cortisol on waking and 30 minutes after waking.
  • In the brain (central activity)
    Measure of metabolites such as HVA, VMA, 5-HIAA. They give indications on the activity of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system
  • Precursors analyzed: Amino acids that influence NT synthesis such as tyrosine, L-DOPA or tryptophan

An interpretation with an expert is recommended. Our check-ups do not replace medical advice.

Three steps to
understand and take actions

1.

Take the sample at home or at the center

Collection of urine and saliva according to protocol. No change in neuroactive treatment in the week prior to sampling

2.

Analysis of neurotransmitters and their metabolites

Dopamine, serotonin, noradrenaline, adrenaline, cortisol and their metabolites (5-HIAA, HVA, VMA)

3.

Results interpretable by a healthcare professional

A structured report, to be adapted to your personal context for appropriate care

What can reveal the test:

  • A decrease or overproduction of certain neurotransmitters
  • Profiles linked to attention, sleep or mood disorders
  • An influence of microbiota on the neurochemical balance

The role of microbiota

The gut microbiota can influence the availability of neurotransmitter precursors and produce neuroactive compounds (toxic or beneficial). In case of dysbiosis, a complementary check-up of the microbiota may be useful. In particular, an altered microbiota may affect serotonin synthesis, 80% of which is produced by intestinal cells.
