Find Clarity and Peace of Mind with SMN1 Gene Testing
When spinal muscular atrophy runs in your family, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. You deserve answers, and our SMN1 Gene Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you need to move forward with confidence. For just ZAR 6,700, you’ll gain access to cutting-edge genetic testing combined with professional genetic counselling – giving you the complete picture of your genetic health.
Understanding Your SMN1 Gene Test
Spinal muscular atrophy type 2 is a genetic condition that affects muscle strength and movement. Our advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your SMN1 gene to identify any mutations that could lead to this condition. Think of it as reading your genetic blueprint with incredible precision – we’re looking for specific changes that could impact your health or your family’s future.
The test is straightforward and requires only a small blood sample or a simple cheek swab. Our nationwide network of collection centres in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria makes testing convenient and accessible for all South Africans.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Family history of spinal muscular atrophy or muscle weakness conditions
- Planning for pregnancy with known family genetic risks
- Unexplained muscle weakness in children or adults
- Concerns about passing genetic conditions to future children

Many South African families find peace of mind through genetic testing, allowing them to make informed decisions about their health journey.
