Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) is a type of functional pathology test that involves analyzing a sample of hair to determine levels of minerals and other trace elements. HTMA is used to evaluate mineral imbalances and nutrient deficiencies in the body, and to assess exposure to heavy metals such as lead and mercury.

The hair sample is taken from the scalp and analyzed in a laboratory to determine levels of minerals, such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc, and to identify patterns of mineral imbalances. The results of the HTMA can provide you with insight into the production of hormones, enzyme activity, energy production, digestive health, and stress levels, used to help diagnose nutritional deficiencies and imbalances, and heavy metal toxicity, and to monitor the effectiveness of dietary and lifestyle changes to improve overall health.

Preparation

The laboratory requires a 0.25gm, 20-cent piece or one tablespoon of untreated, washed and clean head hair for testing from the back of the head. The sample must be taken as close as possible to the root of the hair shaft and can be obtained from multiple sites on the back of the head. ( REF: Scroll through slides of images to get a gauge of hair sample required)

*If head hair is not available, beard, pubic hair, and clean fingernail clippings can be used. These alternative tissue samples can be used to monitor toxic mineral levels, but will not always provide nutrient mineral data that is as reliable as head hair.

Testing Timeline

We provide next-day dispatch of sample collection kits to your address via express post. Once you have collected the sample, you can conveniently return it to the laboratory using the reply-paid express post service. After that, the standard turnaround time for sample analysis is usually 10-15 business days.
