HTMA Hair Testing is Here!
A lab so affordable, itβs no biggie to run it AND see your practitioner quarterly?
HTMA hair testing is here! Abby and I have been diving deep to learn the ins and outs of this powerful, non-invasive test that is perfect for children and adults!
Itβs so foundational: I remodeled our Intake package to include at HTMA. Weβve also opened up HTMAβs to any past or current client for $225 for the test and hour test and protocol review.
It started with meβ¦as usual. I had a health dip this spring, thanks to a bug - more on that later. But the HTMA was the tool that helped my body regain balance and a plan to restore - so now Iβm hooked!
What does HTMA testing look at?
Minerals!
How does HTMA do it?
Small hair samples.
Why do minerals matter?
Theyβre your bodyβs spark plugs!
Minerals are needed for contraction and relaxation of muscles
Minerals are your Goldilocks nutrient - keeping the ph balance of your body "just right"
Minerals get nutrients in and out of your cells
Minerals take the lead on producing energy in your body and are responsible for your bone densityβ¦not milk
Minerals are groupies - thousands of enzyme reactions in your body depend on minerals
Minerals are needed for proper nerve function
Minerals also change you, ASAP. In my health dip, I experienced drastic fatigue and an inability to get my muscles to βgripβ. Enter potassium: the state of my adrenals were creating low potassium and thus leaving me feeling worn and fatigued. I shifted my electrolytes to a potassium heavy option and my strength was restored. Quite literally one test βHULKβDβ me up.
βOK, Elizabeth..Iβm already the HULK,
how can HTMA help me?β
Your HTMA will review your metabolic type, how stressed your body is, if you struggle with copper imbalance or heavy metals (hi, mercury fillings!), why you canβt retain iron, where your thyroid and adrenals need support (and how!), where blood sugar regulation is draining or helping your body, how osteoporosis can be supported or changed, why your nervous system is stuck in fight or flight and so much more...
Minerals have a nervous system component - remember - theyβre spark plugs, so they impact depression and anxiety, your disposition, ADD/ADHD, and ASD. Plainly put: minerals are a foundational tool and Iβm amazed at how much progress folks can see after a few months of mineral balancing
Food first: the beauty of mineral balancing.
Your HTMA protocol will contain supplements, generally a much lighter load, more focused on balance and replenishment. Youβll also get a list of foods to incorporate. Low in potassium? You may use an electrolyte powder AND youβll learn which foods are high in potassium.
HTMA is foundational.
My minerals were a weak foundation allowing for recurrent parasites and fungal overgrowth. And my health history matches that: slow eradication and issues with mold the moment I look at it. My sodium/potassium balance wasnβt allowing for my digestive aids to be effective. I also lacked lithium, so my thyroid couldnβt uptake the iodine in my diet - so I got stuck on my thyroid healing. I think you catch my drift that this foundational, inexpensive tool can really change your health and be a practical piece of data to invest in for a few seasons of work.
The Intake package now includes an HTMA so youβre starting care with data from symptoms and facts from your body! This also opens you to ongoing care at a reduced start rate if another test isnβt quite in your price range, but youβre ready to get going. You can book your intake in one payment or two, making care begin at $265 a month.
For those who have gone through any 1:1 care, you can simply book a HTMA test and call for $225, at any time. Weβll ship your test and be meeting to review results in just a few weeks.
