Hair/Tissue
Mineral Analysis

Hair/Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA)

Hair sampling is easy and painless. Hair, rather than serum (blood), can give an indication of mineral status and toxin accumulation. Often, mineral imbalances show up in the hair long before (if ever) they show up in a blood sample.


WHAT IS HAIR/TISSUE MINERAL ANALYSIS IN ANNAPOLIS MD?

Hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) in Annapolis MD is a highly sophisticated test that measures the mineral content in your hair sample. Think of minerals as the spark plugs in our bodies-every cellular function requires them!


WHY USE HAIR?

Hair sampling is easy and painless. Hair, rather than serum (blood), can give an indication of mineral status and toxin accumulation. Often, mineral imbalances show up in the hair long before (if ever) they show up in a blood sample.


WHAT CAUSES MINERAL IMBALANCE?

Diet, soil depletion, stress, certain medications & supplements, pollution, and genetics can all play a role in mineral imbalance.


WHAT SYMPTOMS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH MINERAL IMBALANCE?

A mineral imbalance may present with symptoms such as headaches, allergies, high blood pressure, fatigue, anxiety, depression, weakness, arthritis, menstrual irregularities, etc.


WHAT'S NEXT?

Schedule an appointment with our Nurse Practitioner, Liz, to see if HTMA is right for you. After reviewing your HTMA results, Liz will guide you in replenishing the minerals, specific to your unique makeup.

DUTCH
Testing

DUTCH hormone testing is a comprehensive test that assesses your sex hormones, adrenal hormones, organic acids, oxidative stress markers, and more. It is a convenient, at-home urine test that helps provide answers to difficult cases including hormonal causes of infertility, PCOS, PMS or PMDD, migraines, menopausal symptoms, insomnia, stress, adrenal fatigue, and more. DUTCH testing can be used for both women and men, is available in several different kits, and is often used in conjunction with serum testing.

GI
Mapping

GI-MAP (GI-Microbial Assay Plus)

As most of us now know, our health or lack thereof begins in the gut. Understanding our gut health really is the first step in getting to the root cause of imbalance, illness, or chronic symptoms, in order to begin the healing process. GI-MAP testing is a comprehensive at-home stool test that assesses microbiome and tests for inflammatory markers, parasites, "leaky-gut", viruses, h-pylori, and much more. GI-MAP testing can be done on children & adults.

Serum (blood)
Tests

Here at Elevate Life, in our attempt to get to the root of illness, we regularly utilize serum testing through Labcorp as well. Serum testing can be incredibly helpful when assessing for endocrine disorders such as hypothyroidism, inflammatory or autoimmune conditions, blood and metabolic disorders, etc. While we are strategic with our testing, and don't order unnecessary lab work, we are thorough and comprehensive in our ordering. For example, when a patient complains of symptoms suggestive of a poorly functioning thyroid, we will order a full thyroid panel, and not just a TSH. Serum testing is often used as a first step to more in-depth testing.
