Modena Allergy & Asthma in Torrance offers expert blood testing to diagnose allergies, asthma triggers, and immune disorders with personalized care.
At Modena Allergy & Asthma, we believe better answers lead to better outcomes. Blood testing plays a key role in uncovering the root causes of allergy, asthma, and immune-related symptoms—especially when the picture isn’t clear.
Our advanced diagnostic bloodwork can detect everything from food and medication sensitivities to hidden immune deficiencies and inflammatory markers. It’s a trusted first step when symptoms are persistent, complex, or unexplained.
Led by board-certified allergists, our team uses this data to create precise, personalized treatment plans based on the latest research. If you’re struggling with chronic respiratory issues, recurring infections, or mysterious allergic reactions, blood testing can provide the clarity you need—and a clear path toward lasting relief.
Blood testing is a key diagnostic tool that offers insight into allergies, immune disorders, and chronic inflammation.
At Modena Allergy & Asthma in Torrance, we use advanced blood panels to uncover the hidden causes of symptoms like fatigue, respiratory issues, skin flare-ups, and unexplained allergic reactions. Here's what we test for:
Using ELISA or RAST, we measure allergen-specific IgE antibodies to identify sensitivities to pollen, mold, dust mites, and pet dander. These results help us personalize your allergy care plan.
This test detects IgE antibodies to common foods like peanuts, dairy, eggs, wheat, and shellfish. It’s helpful for diagnosing food allergies, guiding avoidance strategies, and determining eligibility for immunotherapy.
Although blood tests can detect certain drug allergies, accuracy may vary. We often combine bloodwork with skin or patch testing to ensure safe and precise diagnosis.
We use markers like CBC, ESR, and CRP to evaluate systemic inflammation, which may point to chronic illness, asthma, or autoimmune conditions.
Our blood panels include immunoglobulin levels, autoantibody testing, and lymphocyte function analysis to evaluate immune system strength and detect primary or secondary immune deficiencies.
For patients with unexplained allergic reactions or anaphylaxis, we measure tryptase levels and screen for mast cell mutations to confirm or rule out MCAS, (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)—a rare but serious allergic condition.
Elevated eosinophil counts and IgE levels can provide insight into allergic eczema and help tailor long-term treatment strategies.
At Modena Allergy & Asthma in Torrance, your blood testing experience begins with a personalized consultation. One of our expert allergists will take time to understand your symptoms, health history, and any concerns about allergies, immune issues, or chronic inflammation. Based on this conversation, we’ll recommend the most appropriate blood tests to uncover the root of your symptoms.
The testing process itself is simple and efficient. A quick blood draw—usually completed in just a few minutes—is all we need. Your sample is then sent to a specialized lab, where it's analyzed for key markers like IgE antibodies, eosinophil levels, and other immune-related indicators.
Blood testing plays a critical role in uncovering the underlying causes of allergy, asthma, and immune-related symptoms. By measuring specific immune markers—like allergen-specific IgE antibodies or signs of inflammation—we can pinpoint exactly what’s triggering your symptoms.
This insight allows us to move beyond guesswork and create a treatment plan that’s precise, personalized, and backed by real data. In some cases, we may also recommend additional evaluations like skin or patch testing to complete your diagnostic profile.
Blood testing is a highly valuable tool for diagnosing allergies, asthma triggers, and immune system concerns. You may be a good candidate if you:

Blood tests play a key role in detecting IgE antibodies to specific allergens, providing valuable insight into triggers. This information allows you to implement targeted treatment and prevention strategies to control allergic reactions. Blood testing ensures accurate and reliable data, enabling personalized care for better allergy management.

Blood tests play a vital role in asthma management by identifying triggers like allergens or inflammation that worsen symptoms. While not a direct diagnostic tool, these tests provide valuable insights into the condition, allowing for personalized treatment plans. This proactive approach to monitoring blood test results empowers individuals with asthma to take control of their respiratory health and improve their quality of life.
When it comes to allergy testing, personalized approaches are crucial. Some patients unable to undergo skin testing may opt for blood tests instead. Healthcare providers may recommend a combination of testing methods to accurately diagnose symptoms and plan effective treatments.
Blood testing is an essential diagnostic method utilized by healthcare professionals to evaluate various medical conditions via blood sample analysis. This standard procedure poses minimal risks. Consistent blood tests play a pivotal role in chronic disease management and health maintenance.
Coverage for blood testing varies depending on your insurance plan and the type of test ordered. Most major insurance providers do cover medically necessary blood tests, especially when they’re used to diagnose allergies, asthma, or immune-related conditions. Before your appointment, our team can verify your benefits and help you understand any out-of-pocket costs. We also offer self-pay options for patients without insurance or those seeking testing not covered by their plan.
Screening for immunoglobulin levels and autoantibodies provides key insights into immune system function, aiding in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, infections, and allergies. Monitoring these markers regularly is crucial for maintaining optimal immune health and addressing any underlying issues promptly. By analyzing these factors, our experts can identify potential concerns, assess immune system performance, and tailor interventions accordingly.
Preparation for medical tests is personalized according to the specific test ordered, which may include fasting, as discussed during your consultation. Our aim is to provide detailed information and support to make sure you are informed and at ease for accurate results.
