A Hydration Analysis is a real-time look at your hydration status. This can be a powerful tool for adjusting your hydration strategy based on science, not just feel. Some people are surprised to learn they are dehydrated despite consuming what they believe is an adequate amount of water. Our performance physiologists can help you understand your unique hydration needs and how to keep yourself properly hydrated.
The Hydration Analysis test is simple and quick. You’ll be asked to swallow and then generate fresh saliva. Once there is a sufficient sample, a physiologist will dab your tongue with a hydration strip until a reading is produced. Following the test, you’ll have a 30 minute consultation with a Master’s-level performance physiologist about your unique results and how to improve them.
We recommend this service as an add-on to provide an additional data point when you are coming in for other assessments, and also if you’d like to check whether your hydration practices are working for your body.
We are 100% insurance-free — that means transparent pricing and no surprises. Depending on your plan, you may be able to pay with an HSA or FSA or submit your receipt for reimbursement.
The test itself takes 5 minutes, followed by an up to 30-minute consultation with a performance physiologist to go over the results together.
Avoid eating 30 minutes prior to the test, as this might affect the accuracy of the test. Nothing can be in your mouth while doing the assessment, including gum or a mint.
You’ll receive a real-time reading of your current hydration levels. With this you can effectively plan out a hydration strategy before exercise. This assessment also allows you to monitor if you are at risk of dehydration.
