Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis Consultation Package
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) is the most affordable, simple and non-invasive test to assess metabolic function, mineral balance, ratios and heavy metal toxicity. It is a clinically proven screening test, using a sample of hair sent to a laboratory for analysis.
A mineral check can help show up any hidden deficiencies or excesses before they cause problems and provide information that means changes in your diet or supplement plan can make a big difference to your overall health and well-being.
Minerals are the "spark plugs" for our bodies. We need them to produce energy, digest properly, create hormones, regenerate tissues, maintain a balanced mood, and all the other functions of our physical and psychological health. With minerals being so foundational to the way our bodies function, most symptoms and conditions can truly be traced back to some sort of mineral imbalance.
Is this you?
Feeling fatigued/exhausted
Feeling anxious
Muscle cramps
Broken sleep or insomnia
Burnt out - overloaded & overwhelmed
Ongoing stress
Low mood/anxiety
Difficultly losing weight
Pre-diabetic or diabetic
Poor concentration and decision making
Thinning hair/hair loss
Digestive issues (bloating, IBS etc)
Hormonal imbalance (PMS, hormonal acne etc)
If you're suffering from the symptoms above, you could have mineral imbalances.
By using a HTMA test we can find common mineral imbalances which are the bulding blocks and SPARK PLUGS to optimal health.
The HTMA helps us identify how your body is functioning on a cellular level so that you can find your optimal health & vitality and enjoy life again.
How you will feel when you have balanced minerals:
Sustained ENERGY
Improved sense of well being
Improved cognitive function
Regulated hormones
Easier weight management
Improved metabolism
Easier digestion
Better emotional balance + MORE
How the mineral ratios help us
-
Calcium/Phosphorus: This identifies your metabolic status
Iron/Copper: The iron utilisation/absorption ratio
Sodium/Magnesium: The adrenal ratio
-
Calcium/Magnesium: The blood sugar ratio
Calcium/Potassium: The thyroid ratio
Sodium/Potassium: The vitality ratio
-
The HTMA test also detects heavy metal toxicity such as lead, aluminium, mercury and arsenic.
Allowing us to dive deep into identifying the underlying root cause of the issue.

The HTMA Consultation FAQs

-
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) is a screening test that uses a small sample of recent hair growth to provide information about a person’s average mineral balance and heavy metal accumulation in the tissues over the past 8-12 weeks.
HTMA gives us an overall picture of information about someone’s digestion, blood sugar, thyroid, adrenals, hormones, and detoxification. We use the information from the test to make diet, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations.

As hair is being formed, before it protrudes through the scalp, it is exposed to blood, lymph and intracellular fluids. During this time, it accumulates constituents present in that environment, particularly the minerals, but also toxins. As the cortex of the hair shaft hardens, these constituents are encased within, and can then be tested to see the internal metabolic environment and used to determine mineral status within the body.
It can give us a ‘snap shot’ of energy and stress patterns within the body over the last 2-3 months. It cannot be used to ‘diagnose’ a specific condition, but it can show potential pathways towards a disease state, help you to understand your symptoms, and ultimately give you a holistic approach to remedy deficiencies and/or toxicities.
When we test the blood for minerals, the result is reflective of what is being transported at that exact moment in time. Blood needs to maintain homeostasis, so mineral levels in blood tests will generally appear normal (within range) at the expense of tissue storage. This means minerals will be taken from the tissue stores in order to maintain homeostasis in the blood, leading to depletion that is often unseen in the blood. And excess minerals are deposited into the tissues to get them out of the blood.
Blood is excellent for testing in many ways, but looking at mineral levels in the blood alone does not provide much information. For example, only .3% of Magnesium in the body is found in Serum and .5% is found in RBC Magnesium, while 30-40% is found in the tissues!
