At Check My Body Health, we offer a variety of collection methods to make testing simple, convenient, and accessible from the comfort of your home. Each method is carefully designed to provide accurate, reliable results while being easy to perform.
Dried Blood Spot (DBS)
Our Dried Blood Spot (DBS) method is a minimally invasive way to collect a small blood sample using a simple finger prick. This method is quick and relatively painless, making it ideal for home use.

DBS samples are stable for extended periods, ensuring reliable results for a wide range of health markers.
