What is HTMA?🧬✨ 

What HTMA actually shows

Blood is a moment-to-moment snapshot. Hair stores mineral trends over time. HTMA reads that trend—so we can see how stress, nutrition, and lifestyle have been steering your system the last few months.

The deeper dive (plain English):

• Minerals = messengers. Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper (and friends) help run energy, mood, hormones, and the stress response.

• Stress moves minerals. Big seasons (grief, overwork, under-eating, over-training, postpartum, long illness) can push minerals out of balance—hello wired-tired, brain fog, poor sleep, brittle moods.

• Hair shows patterns, not diagnoses. We’re not hunting diseases; we’re reading adaptations your body made to cope—so we can help it cope better.

Why not “just a multivitamin”?
Because “more” isn’t always “right.” The ratios matter (think calcium ↔ magnesium, sodium ↔ potassium, zinc ↔ copper). We use your map to make targeted, doable changes instead of guesswork.

Scope note: HTMA is complementary insight, not medical testing. It doesn’t diagnose, treat, or prescribe.

WHAT THIS WORK CAN SUPPORT

Signs your mineral map might need love

• Wired-tired days (revved but exhausted)

• Low, choppy energy or afternoon crashes

• Sleep drama (can’t fall or stay asleep)

• Mood loops (edgy, weepy, flat)

• Stress intolerance (“small things feel big”)

• Slow recovery from illness, workouts, or burnout

• Postpartum depletion or long-haul “I just don’t feel like me”

Everyone’s story is different; we don’t promise outcomes. We aim for steadier capacity and an easier bounce-back.

HOW IT WORKS WITH ME

The process

Step 1 — We decide if HTMA fits.
You share what’s going on and what you want to shift. If it’s a yes, we move forward.

Step 2 — You collect a tiny hair sample.
I send simple instructions (a small snip from the back of the head; alternate sites if needed). You mail it to me and I'll send it to my lab.

Step 3 — I read your map and build your plan.
When results land, I review patterns and ratios, then create a practical plan for ~8 -12 weeks.

Step 4 — You receive your recap two ways:

• Short typed notes (highlights, key patterns, simple actions)

• Detailed audio walkthrough (my voice note with context, priorities, and how to start gently)

Step 5 — You integrate (real life > perfection).
Hydrate, tweak meals, adjust timing, maybe add simple supplements if appropriate, protect sleep, and reduce “mineral leaks.” We keep it doable.

Step 6 — Optional retest.
We can retest in 3–4 months to see what shifted and refine the plan.

No live appointments. I confirm timing by email and do the work on my end; you get clear guidance you can actually use.

WHO THIS IS / ISN’T FOR

Is this a fit?

Yes, if you want…

• Clarity instead of guesswork

• A calm, layered rebuild (not a detox circus)

• Guidance that respects your nervous system and real schedule

Not a fit if you want…

• A quick-fix pill or extreme protocol

• Medical diagnosis or treatment (not what this is)

• Pushing hard when your body needs slow repair

HTMA Options 

WHAT TO EXPECT

What changes feel like

Most people start with more predictable energy, smoother mood edges, and better sleep rhythms when they follow the plan. Big swings usually mellow first; then capacity grows. Expect steady, not flashy.

Normal things: thirstier, slightly more bathroom trips, a touch of tired as your body re-allocates. We go slow when slow is smart.

TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE

Trauma-informed, always

Consent first. Pacing over pushing. Choice at every step. No shame if you need to pause. I’ll never hand you a plan that steamrolls your nervous system.

WHAT I CAN & CAN’T CLAIM

Boundaries (so we’re clear)

I can: read mineral patterns, offer a doable plan, and support your integration with typed notes + a detailed audio. I can work alongside your doctor or therapist.

I can’t: diagnose, treat, cure, or prescribe; replace medical care; promise outcomes or timelines. Individual experiences vary.
