Stopped into Jiffy-Lube the other day to have the oil & fluids changed, and they were offering a new service while you wait - Neurotransmitter Testing while you wait!
'Naw, seriously,,, is this "neurotransmitter testing a gimmick or actually a recent advancement in psychiatry?

Is this a joke? Sounds like something from The Onion.

Unfortunately this is pretty much a waste of time / money.
I don't think they have accurate lab tests to measure neurotransmitter activity in the brain.
Also, high / low levels of neurotransmitters do not readily correlate with psychiatric symptoms.Linkadge
