What is the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis Review?
The HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) is my favorite lab test I run in my practice. With a small sample of your hair, it assesses your body’s mineral levels, which tell us a clear and comprehensive story about your metabolic health, nervous system and stress state, adrenal and thyroid function, blood sugar handling, digestion, detox and more! As a result, this easy, non-invasive functional assessment can provide root cause answers to your symptoms that other tests simply cannot.
This service is best for you if:
You have basic nutrition knowledge and are already focusing on important nourishment foundations
You're ready to dig deeper with functional testing and have the capacity to fine-tune and incorporate “extras” like specific foods and supplements
You’re a self-starter who prefers to DIY but desires a practitioner’s guidance and continued support to help streamline your approach
You want to learn more about minerals and how they can help you ditch your symptoms and improve how you feel every day
“It truly feels so nice to get some answers that blood work hasn’t ever given me in the past.”

IMPORTANT NOTES
There are limited spots available for this service each month. When you book, it will clearly state which month your HTMA will take place.
If there are any barriers to you getting your sample out (i.e. if you color-treat your hair), you will be emailed about moving your spot.
There is also some lead time for this service due to lab processing of your hair sample (which takes 3-4 weeks). Once I have your results, you’ll receive everything within 2 weeks.
