Saliva Inflammation Test Kit: Where to Order One
Nearly every at-home inflammation test on sale today asks for a drop of blood from a finger prick. Saliva is the exception, and as far as we can tell there is exactly one consumer kit that uses it. Here is where to order it, what it costs, and the cases where a blood test is the smarter purchase.

Sensa is the only consumer saliva inflammation test kit we are aware of, and it is sold direct from this site rather than through Amazon, a pharmacy or any other retailer. List prices are $49 for a single kit, $99 for a three-pack and $129 for a four-pack, which is about $33 and about $32 per test in the packs, with free shipping in the United States and no subscription; at the time of writing on November 4, 2026 the Fall Reset Sale takes 20 percent off automatically at checkout, bringing those to $39, $79 and $103. You spit into a single-use vial, the reagent inside changes color, and the Sensa app reads the vial with your phone camera to produce a 0 to 100 wellness score in about 15 minutes, with no needle and no lab. It is a general wellness product for tracking your own trend over time, not a diagnostic test. If you need a laboratory hs-CRP value for a doctor, order a blood test instead, and we name the cheapest ones below.
A note before anything else: this article lives on the Sensa Wellness site, and Sensa is our product. We have tried to write the version that is actually useful rather than the version that sells hardest, which means being plain about what a saliva kit does not do and naming the situations where somebody else's blood test is the better buy.
The reason this search is frustrating is that the category barely exists. Saliva collection is routine in laboratory research and common in mail-in hormone panels, but the consumer inflammation market runs on blood. The familiar names, Everlywell and myLAB Box, both ship a lancet and a collection card. Laboratory suppliers do sell salivary CRP assays, but those are sold to research labs for research use, not to people at home. That leaves one place to order a saliva inflammation kit, which is a strange thing for us to be able to say and worth stating plainly rather than dressing up.
What a Saliva Inflammation Test Kit Actually Is
The whole kit is a vial, a reagent and your phone. You open the single-use vial, spit into it, and give the reagent a few minutes to react to the CRP present in the sample. The color shifts, and you scan the vial with the Sensa app, which reads the color with your phone camera and converts it into a number. There is no lancet, no finger prick, no blood draw, no collection card to dry, nothing to mail, no countertop device to buy, no batteries and no power outlet. Kits are shelf-stable at room temperature, so a multi-pack sits in a cupboard until the day you want to use one.
What comes back is a wellness score, not a laboratory value. The app gives you a score from 0 to 100 in one of three tiers: In range, Worth watching, or Time to reset. That score is not an hs-CRP value and it should never be read against blood reference ranges or clinical cutoffs, because saliva CRP and blood hs-CRP are different fluids measured on entirely different scales. Our research explainer on measuring CRP in saliva goes into why, and hs-CRP versus standard CRP covers the blood assays. The value of a score is in repetition: one reading tells you very little, while a line of readings across the weeks you changed your sleep, your drinking or your training tells you which direction you are heading.
Where to Order One
Sensa is sold direct from sensawellness.org and nowhere else. You order from the buy page or the pricing section of the home page, pick a single kit or a multi-pack, and check out. We do not sell through Amazon, Walmart, Target, a pharmacy chain or any marketplace, so a third-party listing claiming to sell Sensa kits is not ours and we cannot stand behind it. If you are weighing the wider market first, our guide to where to buy a CRP test for home use walks through every seller we could find, and the best at-home inflammation test kit to buy compares them head to head.
What It Costs
Three pack sizes, and the per-test price falls as the pack grows. List prices are below, alongside the sale prices showing at the time of writing. Shipping is free on every order within the United States and there is no subscription, so a four-pack is a single charge rather than a plan.
| Pack | List price | Sale price at the time of writing | Per test at list price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kit | $49 | $39 | $49 |
| 3-pack | $99 | $79 | About $33 |
| 4-pack | $129 | $103 | About $32 |
There are no discount codes to hunt for. The Fall Reset Sale takes 20 percent off and it is applied automatically at checkout, which is why there is no code box to fill in and no public code to find. If you want to hear about the next offer before it runs, the newsletter at the bottom of this page is the way we announce them. Any site advertising a Sensa coupon code is guessing.
What Ordering Looks Like Right Now
Orders are open and paid at checkout. You check out through Stripe and are charged today, and your kit ships when the next batch is ready. We email you the shipping date rather than promising one at checkout, and you can cancel for a full refund any time before your kit ships. Shipping is free within the United States, and we ship within the US only. Once the kit arrives there is nothing to assemble, charge or register beyond creating an app account, and because the kits keep at room temperature you can test the day it lands or three months later.
If You Need a Laboratory Number, Order Blood Instead
A saliva score will not satisfy a doctor who asked for an hs-CRP. This is the single most important thing on the page. If a clinician requested the test, if you are following up on a previously elevated result, or if you want a number to take to an appointment, you need a laboratory value in milligrams per liter, and a blood test is the right purchase. The cheapest routes to one, last verified on the sellers' own websites on November 3, 2026, are Quest Health's hs-CRP test at $65 plus a $6 physician fee and Labcorp OnDemand's hs-CRP test at $69, both completed with a venous draw at a collection site. If you would rather not leave the house, Everlywell's Vitamin D & Inflammation Test and myLAB Box's At Home Inflammation Test were both $99 mail-in finger-prick kits that return an hs-CRP value plus a vitamin D value, with myLAB Box's product page noting the test was temporarily unavailable in New York. LetsGetChecked's US CRP test page was listed as unavailable on that date.
Those are better buys than Sensa for that job, and we say so in detail elsewhere. We compare each of them against Sensa in Sensa vs Everlywell, Sensa vs myLAB Box and Sensa vs LetsGetChecked, and our guide to at-home hs-CRP kits with lab results covers the laboratory category on its own terms. One more option sits outside both camps: COR One sells a countertop reader on a membership, listed at $29 per month billed annually or $39 month-to-month when last verified on November 3, 2026, measuring ESR rather than CRP from a finger prick. We lay out that trade-off in Sensa vs COR One.

Which Pack to Order
Order a single kit if you are curious and a multi-pack if you are tracking. One kit at $49 answers the question of whether the process suits you, and it is the honest choice for a first order. But a single reading is close to meaningless on its own, because a score only earns its keep once there are others to compare it with. If you already know you want to watch a change, in sleep, in food, in training or in stress, the four-pack at $129 brings the per-test price down to about $32 and gives you four points on the chart, which is enough to see a direction. The three-pack at $99 sits in between at about $33 per test. Because kits keep at room temperature and there is no expiry pressure from a subscription, there is no penalty for buying the pack and spacing the tests out.
What a Saliva Kit Will Not Tell You
Sensa is a general wellness product, and the limits matter more than the features. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or condition, and it is not a substitute for care from a qualified provider. The score is not an hs-CRP value, so it cannot be compared with blood reference ranges, plotted against clinical cutoffs or used in place of a test your doctor ordered. It will not tell you why a reading moved, only that it did, and a single high reading has plenty of mundane explanations, from a cold to a hard workout. If a reading worries you, or if you have symptoms, the next step is a clinician rather than another kit. Our guide to testing inflammation levels at home sets out all four routes side by side, and Sensa versus mail-in kits compares the two approaches in more depth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I order a saliva inflammation test kit?
Direct from sensawellness.org. Sensa is the only consumer saliva inflammation kit we are aware of, and we sell it ourselves rather than through Amazon, a pharmacy or any marketplace, so a third-party listing is not ours. List prices are $49 for a single kit, $99 for a three-pack and $129 for a four-pack, with free shipping within the United States and no subscription. Orders are paid at checkout through Stripe and ship when the next batch is ready, and we email you the shipping date.
Are there other saliva inflammation test kits on the market?
None that we have found for consumers. Almost every at-home inflammation test asks for a finger-prick blood sample, including the $99 mail-in kits from Everlywell and myLAB Box. Laboratory suppliers do sell salivary CRP assays, but they are sold to research laboratories for research use rather than to people at home. If you find another consumer saliva option, read the product page carefully to see what it measures and who reads the sample.
How much does a saliva inflammation test kit cost?
$49 for a single Sensa kit at list price, $99 for a three-pack (about $33 per test) and $129 for a four-pack (about $32 per test), with free shipping in the United States. At the time of writing on November 4, 2026, the Fall Reset Sale takes 20 percent off automatically at checkout, so the three prices come to $39, $79 and $103. There are no discount codes, because sales are applied at checkout instead.
Is a saliva inflammation test the same as a blood CRP test?
No. Saliva CRP and blood hs-CRP are different fluids measured on completely different scales, and a Sensa reading is a 0 to 100 wellness score rather than a value in milligrams per liter. It should not be compared with blood reference ranges or used in place of a test your doctor ordered. A saliva kit is for watching your own trend between laboratory tests; a blood test is for getting a clinical number.
What should I order if my doctor asked for an hs-CRP?
A laboratory blood test, not a saliva kit. When last verified on the sellers' own websites on November 3, 2026, the cheapest routes were Quest Health at $65 plus a $6 physician fee and Labcorp OnDemand at $69, both completed with a venous draw at a collection site, while Everlywell and myLAB Box each sold a $99 mail-in finger-prick kit that returns an hs-CRP value plus vitamin D. Confirm current prices and availability on the seller's site before you buy.
