Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis
How It Works:
HTMA test kit delivered: Once you book your session, a prepaid test kit is shipped directly to your door within 2–3 days.
Sample collection: You collect a small hair sample at home and send it to the lab.
Laboratory analysis: Over 3-4 weeks, the lab measures and analyses your mineral levels.
Consultation & results: a consultation follows, where we’ll discuss your symptoms, health concerns, and goals in detail. Then you’ll receive a detailed report and customised health plan based on your results.
DIY: The test results are very complex and best understood with the help of a professional who can accurately interpret and analyse the data.
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis – HTMA
What is a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) test and why do you need one?
A Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) test is a non-invasive, affordable, and highly accurate method for evaluating your health over the past 3 months. Unlike blood tests that reflect a momentary snapshot, HTMA provides a long-term picture of your mineral levels, deficiencies, and potential toxicities at the cellular level.
By analysing the mineral content in hair samples, HTMA reveals deep insights into your metabolic health, adrenal function, hormonal balance, digestive performance, and even psychological stress levels. It’s an essential tool for anyone looking to take control of their well-being with personalised, data-driven recommendations.
Who is this test for?
HTMA is ideal for individuals who are:
Struggling with fatigue, hormonal imbalance, or chronic stress
Looking to uncover hidden mineral deficiencies or toxic overloads
Interested in preventative health and long-term wellness
Following a holistic or functional medicine approach
Seeking a deeper understanding of their nutritional and metabolic status
It’s also perfect for those who want a more cost-effective alternative to complex functional testing.
What does the HTMA test analyse?
The test evaluates over 20 essential and toxic minerals, including:
Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium, Sodium
Zinc, Copper, Iron, Manganese
Aluminium, Mercury, Lead, and other heavy metals
It helps assess your:
Adrenal and thyroid health
Metabolic type and efficiency
Digestive and detox function
Hormonal regulation
Stress resilience (emotional and physical)
What you’ll learn:
Your body’s mineral ratios and imbalances
Indicators of stress, fatigue, inflammation, and toxic exposure
How to optimise energy levels, mood, and mental clarity
Targeted insights into your nutrient requirements
A personalised plan with supplement, diet, and lifestyle recommendations
