Hair Mineral Analysis

Your hair, along with other tissues in the body, are a store house for various beneficial and toxic minerals in the body. Whilst blood testing can give you an indication of acute heavy metal toxicity, or amounts of free minerals in the blood,  and urine testing can indicate how much heavy metal is being excreted from the body, Hair Mineral Analysis gives a better indication of what levels of minerals are actually stored in the body. Excess heavy metals in the body has been linked to various conditions such as depression, learning dificulties, mood disorder, hormonal imbalances, thyroid problems, digestive disorders and many more.

The Test

Hair Mineral Analysis test kits can be purchased from us and sent out to your home anywhere in Australia. All you need to do is simply follow the instructions enclosed and send off the hair sample in the envelope provided. Your results will be sent back to you within three weeks in the form of a printed and bound booklet which you keep for future reference. 

The total cost for this service is $249. No consultation is required for this service, however we do recommend that you visit a Naturopath in your area should you wish to begin a Heavy Metal Detoxification Program. 

It is important to remember that treating excess amounts of heavy metals in the body is not a simple task, and often detoxification programmes and chelation therapy are not always the answer. If a person is not monitored correctly during heavy metal detoxification it can often lead to complications with the body's elimination organs such as the liver, kidneys and digestive tract. That is why our practitioners at Wave Health are continually researching and developing new techniques to deal with heavy metal elimination from the body to ensure the highest level of care to our patients. We do not recommend under-going heavy metal detoxification without first being under the supervision of a qualified practitioner.

The pracitioners at Wave Health have developed specialised detoxification programmes to suit the heavy metal detoxification process following a hair mineral analysis. So if you are suffering from any of the above mentioned symptoms, or work in a field which exposes you to paints, fumes, pestacides or any other chemicals, we recommend that you Contact Us to find out more about our Heavy Metal Detoxification Program.
