Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis
Have you ever felt like something is "off" in your body, but just can’t pinpoint why? Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) might hold the answers you’ve been searching for. HTMA is a non-invasive test that analyzes the mineral content in a small sample of hair. Minerals are the building blocks for your health, and imbalances or deficiencies can impact everything from your energy levels to your sleep, hormones, digestion, and even your mood.
By understanding your unique mineral profile, we can get to the root cause of your symptoms and create a personalized plan to help you feel your best.
Why Test Minerals?
Minerals play a vital role in hundreds of bodily functions, and even small imbalances can lead to significant health issues. Stress, diet, environmental toxins, and even the water you drink can deplete your body’s minerals over time.
An HTMA test provides insight into:
Mineral Deficiencies: Pinpoint which minerals you may be lacking.
Toxic Metals: Identify the presence of heavy metals like lead, mercury, or aluminum that could be harming your health.
Metabolic Rate: Understand how your body is metabolizing nutrients and using energy.
Adrenal & Thyroid Function: Uncover imbalances that could be affecting your stress levels and hormones.
Blood Sugar Regulation: See how well your body is managing glucose and insulin.

Your Nutrition Needs
You'll gain insights into your metabolism, allowing you to identify which foods can help either boost or slow it down. Additionally, you'll discover which foods to prioritize for specific nutrients based on your unique mineral imbalances.
-
Nurturing Your Minerals
You’ll uncover not only which minerals are individually out of balance but also how they interact with each other, as certain mineral pairs work in harmony. Since each mineral affects the others, this information is incredibly valuable for understanding your overall health.

Your Detox Journey
HTMA serves as a screening tool for heavy metals such as uranium, lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, aluminum, and nickel. It reliably indicates toxicity levels and is valuable for tracking your detoxification progress.
The Process
Sample Collection: You’ll provide a small sample of hair, which is easy and painless.
Laboratory Analysis: The sample is sent to a lab to be analyzed for both mineral levels and heavy metals.
Personalized Plan: Once we have the results, I’ll create a personalized health plan based on your mineral profile. This will include dietary recommendations, lifestyle changes, and supplements tailored to your specific needs.
Who Can Benefit from HTMA?
HTMA is beneficial for everyone—from children to adults—whether you're dealing with chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, anxiety, digestive issues, or just want to optimize your overall health. It’s also an excellent tool for proactive health management, helping to prevent issues before they arise.
Start Your Healing Journey
If you're ready to take a deeper look into your health and understand what’s really going on beneath the surface, HTMA is the perfect place to start. Together, we can develop a customized plan that aligns with your body’s unique needs, helping you reclaim your energy, balance, and overall well-being.
