​Hair Mineral Tissue Analysis (HTMA) in Vienna

What HTMA reveals:

✓ Nutrient deficiencies – Which minerals are you really lacking?

✓ Heavy metal burdens – Mercury, lead, aluminum & Co.

✓ Adrenal & thyroid function – Correlated with your cellular energy

✓ Liver & kidney function – How well do your detoxification pathways work?

✓ Autonomic nervous system – Are you in sympathetic dominance (stress) or in balance?

✓ Immune system strength – How resilient is your body?

✓ Future health trends – Patterns that indicate potential problems (before they manifest)

✓ Personalized recommendations – The right diet, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments for your individual biochemistry

​

How does an HTMA work?

Minerals accumulate in the hair, providing a window into your body’s health over an extended period. Unlike blood, which fluctuates constantly and is tightly regulated, hair mineral levels reflect a picture of your mineral patterns over several months.

​

The Process:
During a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis, a small hair sample (about one tablespoon) is burned in a mass spectrometer. The amounts of various elements are then measured with high precision. This extended time perspective enables the analysis of different body systems in a way that blood tests often cannot provide.

​

Is the HTMA scientifically legit?

The science of Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis is largely credited to Dr. Paul Eck, a respected physician and researcher who analyzed hundreds of thousands of hair tests over a span of more than 40 years. Through his pioneering work, he identified consistent mineral patterns that are directly linked to various health conditions, lifestyle habits, organ functions, and emotional states.

Furthermore, there is a vast body of scientific research that validates Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis for providing a wide range of health-related insights.

​

The defining breakthrough of Dr. Eck was the following realization: the effect of nutrients changes depending on an individual’s specific mineral patterns. This means that what helps one person can be counterproductive for another.

HTMA makes it possible to administer the right nutrients, supplements, and dietary changes at the right time—without any guesswork, unnecessary costs, or potential complications from unsuitable nutritional interventions.

​

What are the Benefits of a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis?

Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis offers several key advantages:

​

A More Stable Biochemical Blueprint
Unlike blood levels, which can fluctuate significantly, HTMA provides a deeper and more stable picture of your biochemistry over several months.

​

Early Detection of Trends
HTMA makes it possible to detect trends for various complaints and symptoms early on and take preventive action—long before problems become manifest.

​

Optimization of Cellular Energy
An experienced practitioner can use this information to tailor your diet, supplements, and lifestyle for maximum cellular energy—meaning deep healing and enhanced physical and cognitive performance.

​

Finding Root Causes, Not Just Treating Symptoms
HTMA helps identify toxic metals, mineral deficiencies, and imbalances that are often at the root of many symptoms, including fatigue, depression, anxiety, brain fog, autoimmune diseases, digestive issues, and more.

How Your Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis with Me Works

1. Appointment Booking & Sample Collection
You cut a small hair sample yourself (approx. 1 gram, about 1 tablespoon) and send it in. The hair should be cut from various spots at the back of the head, right at the scalp line, and should be about 3 cm long. I work with the ARL laboratory, which is Dr. Paul Eck’s lab and provides the most accurate testing available. Here is the link to your HTMA (save approx. 20% with the code “IKUMI20”). Important: No test kit will be sent to you; you will mail in your hair sample yourself. You can find more information about this process on their website. The laboratory results will be sent directly to me. If you decide to use my link for your HTMA without wanting an interpretation session, that is perfectly fine, as long as you let me know.

 

2. Laboratory Analysis
Your hair sample is examined in the laboratory with the highest precision.

 

3. Analysis Report
You will receive an approximately 21-page comprehensive evaluation explaining the following points in detail:

• Your mineral status (magnesium, zinc, selenium, copper, etc.)

• Heavy metal loads (mercury, lead, aluminum, cadmium, etc.)

• Adrenal and thyroid function

• Metabolic type and oxidation rate

• Your autonomic nervous system

• Tangible, individualized recommendations

 

4. Your Personalized Plan
You will receive a customized plan featuring:

• Dietary recommendations tailored to your metabolic type

• Supplement protocol (which ones to take, when, and how much)

• Lifestyle adjustments to support your healing journey

• Detoxification strategies in case of heavy metal burdens

5. Follow-Up (Optional)
After 3–4 months, we can perform a re-test to track your progress and adjust your protocol.

 

The "Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis + Kinesiology Session" Bundle

The most effective measure for your health foundation is the synthesis of kinesiology and Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA). With this bundle, you receive everything included in a standard HTMA interpretation, plus an additional kinesiology session. In this session, the remedies and supplements identified through your hair analysis are tested kinesiologically. Your self-regulation capacity is examined in detail, and any potential blockages related to these remedies are uncovered and dissolved.
