An Environmental Assessment for allergies is a key component of the integrative approach to identifying and treating allergies and/or chronic disease. A complete, comprehensive medical and dental history of the patient is necessary in order to determine the timing of allergy and/or sickness. At what point did the patient become sick or develop allergies? Where did the patient live and work? Did the patient ever have a tooth extracted? What is the age of the patient's home? Did the patient ever have a root canal? These are questions an integrative physician will ask in order to assess the internal and external living environment. If necessary, additional testing of the home using mold panels can be done to further pinpoint the root cause of the problem which may be contributing to allergy or sickness.
