HTMA Testing
Get to the bottom of your stubborn symptoms, balance your minerals and support your hormones. When your cells are healthy, your hormones can do their job, and you can feel like yourself again.
As you are working with Laura on the root causes of your hormone imbalances, she may recommend some functional testing to get more clues about what's going on in your body, and what may be contributing to your symptoms. The HTMA Test looks at mineral and metal imbalances by testing hair samples from your scalp. This type of testing has been validated and used for 40 years to help clinicians get to the root of their patient's symptoms. Mineral testing can help with hormone balance for several reasons:
- Minerals like copper and calcium, when in excess or when built up in the wrong tissues, can block the absorption of nutrients and even block hormones from entering cells.
- Mineral deficiencies can contribute to symptoms of hormone imbalance such as fatigue, PMS, menopause, thyroid imbalance, weight gain, brain fog, decreased sex drive, poor hair and nail quality, hot flashes, and more.
- Testing allows for more accurate dietary and supplement recommendations so we can safely and effectively bring mineral levels back to balance and alleviate symptoms.
How it Works:
Once you purchase your HTMA Test Kit, Laura will mail you the test kit along with instructions for collecting and weighing your hair sample. You will mail your sample directly to the lab, where they will analyze your hair and generate a full report that will be emailed to you and to Laura. Laura and you will meet to discuss the results and create a plan to correct any imbalances found.
Laura works with Trace Elements, a leading provider of HTMA laboratory services, is an independent testing laboratory specializing in hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) for healthcare professionals worldwide.
