You want to understand what’s really going on with your health and finally see how the pieces fit together—but even the most expensive labs can only show you pieces of the picture, often giving you more data about your symptoms without helping you understand the bigger story.
The Mineral Story Session uses HTMA as a window into your physiology and psychology, helping us connect your mineral patterns with your stress, experiences, and life so you can see the bigger picture, understand your unique patterns, and gain clarity about where to focus next.
Because more data doesn’t necessarily mean more understanding.
HTMA isn’t about adding one more test to the pile. It’s about learning to see the story within the patterns.
Your Minerals Are Telling a Story
Your minerals don’t exist in isolation.
They are involved in virtually every process that keeps you functioning—from energy production and metabolism to nervous system function, stress response, and cellular communication.
When we look at your HTMA as more than a collection of mineral levels and ratios, it can become a window into how your body has been adapting to the demands of your life.
That’s where the story begins.
We look at the patterns—not just the individual numbers—and then bring those patterns into the context of you: what you’re experiencing, your history, your stressors, your lifestyle, your nutrition, and what feels relevant to you now.
The goal isn’t to find something else to fix. It’s to understand what’s happening well enough to make choices that actually make sense for you.
Maybe You’ve Been Given a Lot of “Answers”.
You’ve been told to look at your gut.
Your hormones. Your bloodwork. Your stool test. Your OAT.
Your food.
Your supplements.
Your stress and nervous system.
And each piece may have told you something.
But when you’re looking at each piece separately, it can become even harder to understand how it all fits together.
That’s where your mineral story can be different.
Rather than looking at your HTMA as a list of minerals to increase, decrease, or balance, we look for patterns and consider what they may reveal about how your body has been functioning and adapting.
Then we bring that information back to you.
Your experiences.
Your stress.
Your nutrition.
Your symptoms.
Your life.
Your capacity.
Because the same mineral pattern doesn’t necessarily mean the same thing for every person.
Your HTMA Is More Than a Mineral Test
Minerals are essential to virtually every aspect of how your body functions. They’re involved in energy production, metabolism, nervous system function, stress response, and countless cellular processes.
When we assess your HTMA as a whole, those mineral patterns can become a window into your physiology and psychology.
Not a diagnosis.
Not a prescription.
A window.
A way to start asking better questions about what’s happening beneath the surface and how your body may have adapted to the demands placed on it.
This is why I think of HTMA as a life test.
Your mineral patterns are not your story.
They’re part of it.
This Is Different From a Typical HTMA Interpretation
Who This Session Is For ✅
You may be:
- Tired of collecting more information without understanding the bigger picture.
- Frustrated by tests, protocols, supplements, and recommendations that still leave pieces missing.
- Curious what your mineral patterns reveal about your physiology, psychology, stress, and adaptation.
- Wanting to understand how those patterns connect to your lived experience.
- Ready to look at your health differently instead of adding another protocol.
- Wanting to be an active participant in understanding your health.
This Session Isn’t For You If ❌
You’re looking for someone to interpret your HTMA and hand you a supplement protocol.
It’s also not for you if you want:
- A diagnosis or medical treatment
- A one-size-fits-all supplement plan
- Someone to tell you exactly what to do
- One session to tell you everything you need to heal
This isn’t about finding the perfect protocol.
It’s about seeing the story within your patterns so you can understand yourself and make choices that make sense for you.

Will this single 90-minute session tell me everything I need to know to heal?
Achieving mineral balance and healing from chronic health challenges is a gradual process that requires consistent, long-term action. This session is designed to start your journey. The analysis and the initial action steps we create together are meant to kickstart your progress and provide a clear direction. We can’t cover every measure needed to address every issue and achieve sustainable harmony in a single session, but this is a powerful and essential first step.
For best results, I recommend waiting 6-8 weeks between hair colorings.
HTMA stands for Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis. Unlike blood tests, which provide a snapshot of what’s circulating in your body at a single moment, an HTMA offers a look into your cellular activity over the past few months. We use it as a “life test,” not just a lab test. It provides a window into your metabolic rate, nervous system status, and how accumulated stress affects your body on a deeper level, revealing connections other tests often miss. Beyond this, HTMA can also provide valuable insights into gut health, adrenal and thyroid function, hormone balance, liver and detoxification capacity, and other key systems in the body. By assessing these interconnected areas, HTMA gives us a much more comprehensive understanding of your overall health and where support is needed most.
This session is a co-creative experience designed to empower you. Many practitioners dictate a protocol. Instead, we work together to uncover the story your body is telling and build a plan that fits your life. We connect the dots between your physical symptoms and your mental-emotional health, recognizing that you can’t heal one without addressing the other. The goal is to give you clarity and confidence, positioning you as an active participant in your healing journey.
No, I don’t recommend a single go-to brand. Many other practitioners who learn HTMA are taught a standard approach that uses only specific supplement brands. This is the outdated standard functional medicine approach I oppose because it relies heavily on labs and often assumes supplements are the main way to “balance” minerals.
My go-to is Trace Elements Lab, but I also like Analytical Research Lab. If you have an HTMA from any other lab, I can’t interpret it.
Yes, we can run an HTMA in many other countries. Please email me at Sara@theorganicdietitian.com to find out if your country is eligible.
Some people start with this initial session to make sure it’s a good fit. Afterward, we can discuss more comprehensive options for working together and the additional support available. If you’re interested in ongoing guidance, you can learn more about my 12-session VIP package here.
Due to the nature of this session, all sales are FINAL. This is a strict policy.
