Hair and Mineral Test (HTMA)
Your hair can reveal remarkable insights into your overall health and well-being. Unlike other testing methods, hair analysis provides a long-term view of how your body is storing and utilizing essential minerals, as well as how it is responding to potential environmental toxins or heavy metals. These minerals such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, and potassium, play critical roles in energy production, hormonal balance, immune function, and nervous system health.
Imbalances or deficiencies may show up in subtle ways, including fatigue, low mood, brain fog, difficulty managing stress, or even elevated blood pressure. Toxic metals, such as lead, mercury, or cadmium, can accumulate over time and interfere with your body’s natural biochemical processes, contributing to a wide range of physical and emotional symptoms.
Through this gentle, non-invasive testing, we gain a detailed picture of your unique mineral profile and toxic load. Understanding these patterns allows us to identify underlying contributors to your symptoms and tailor recommendations that support your body’s natural balance.

Minerals
​Our hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) evaluates over 20 essential and trace minerals that play crucial roles in your body’s health.
​​​​
-
Calcium & Magnesium: Support bones, muscles, and nerve function.
-
Potassium & Sodium: Essential for fluid balance, blood pressure regulation, and energy.
-
Zinc & Copper: Critical for immune function, wound healing, and hormone regulation.
-
Iron & Manganese: Support oxygen transport, energy production, and metabolism.
-
Other Trace Minerals (Chromium, Selenium, etc.): Play roles in antioxidant defense, blood sugar regulation, and cellular health.
​
​

Heavy Metals
-
Mercury: Often comes from dental fillings, seafood, or environmental exposure. Can impact the nervous system, mood, and energy levels.
-
Lead: Found in old paint, contaminated water, and industrial exposure. Can affect cognitive function, blood pressure, and kidney health.
-
Cadmium: Found in cigarette smoke, certain foods, and industrial environments. May interfere with mineral metabolism and kidney function.
-
Arsenic: Can come from contaminated water or foods. May affect liver function, energy levels, and overall detoxification processes.
-
Aluminum: Often linked to environmental exposure and certain cookware or packaging. Can impact the nervous system and cognitive function.
-
Nickel & Chromium (in excess): Can cause oxidative stress, inflammation, or skin sensitivities in some individuals.

Ratios between minerals
-
Calcium to Magnesium Ratio: This ratio is essential for proper muscle function, nerve signaling, and cardiovascular health. An imbalance may contribute to muscle cramps, anxiety, sleep disturbances, or high blood pressure.
-
Sodium to Potassium Ratio: This ratio regulates fluid balance, blood pressure, and energy metabolism. A high ratio may indicate stress, adrenal overactivity, or poor cellular hydration.
-
Calcium to Potassium Ratio: This can reflect metabolic rate and cellular energy production. A skewed ratio may contribute to fatigue, sluggish metabolism, or thyroid imbalances.
-
Zinc to Copper Ratio: This balance is vital for immune function, hormonal health, and nervous system support. An incorrect ratio may indicate chronic inflammation, adrenal stress, or hormonal fluctuations.
-
Other Trace Mineral Ratios: Ratios among trace minerals like iron, manganese, chromium, and selenium provide insights into antioxidant capacity, blood sugar regulation, and detoxification efficiency.​​
