why work with me?
10 Reasons! As a leading HTMA Practitioner...
1. I specialize in the complex interpretation of HTMA data. It's at the very core of the work I do. With thousands of hours of mineral and HTMA study and practical application, working 1 on 1 with hundreds of clients worldwide every year using HTMA as the foundation, and a 'go to' mentor/teacher for other health practitioners and HTMA providers wishing to maximize their HTMA understanding, I have the experience to help you get the most out of your HTMA.
2. My team of hTMA teachers comprises of the world's very best. Specifically, I have trained under, and continue to consult closely with, Dr. Rick Malter Ph.D, arguably the world's foremost expert in this field for 4 decades, and who in turn was taught HTMA directly by the very pioneers of nutritional HTMA science (Dr. Paul Eck and Dr. David Watts). Having learned from several other masters as well, I am not chained or limited in my thinking to any one approach, but take what I feel are the best teachings from all.
3. I am one of the world's leading experts on 'copper toxicity'. My research and contribution has been medically recognized and is available at www.coppertoxic.com, the Internet's most comprehensive resource and support site on the topic. I've brought together an international network of leading practitioners, researchers, and patients, sharing their voices to make a difference and on hand to further support other individuals struggling with copper toxicity.
4. I am a nutritional educator and the founder of Mineral Mastery, an advanced nutritional education training program to broaden both public and medical community awareness on the role minerals play in health, while also dispelling many of the harmful nutritional myths that are currently being sold out there.
5. For lab testing I work exclusively with TEI Labs, one of only 2 recognized labs that specialize in HTMA and which follow all proper testing protocol and procedures. TEI has advanced the important concept of the Na/K pseudo inversion phenomenon that can occur during a copper dump, and also offers a more comprehensive panel of heavy metal test results. I am an Authorized Provider of Hair Trace Mineral Analysis by Trace Elements Inc. (Clinical Laboratory License No.: 45-D0481787 U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, State of Texas Department of Health, CLIA 1988)
6. My client reports/assessments are one of the most comprehensive and personalized in the industry. Most practitioners simply provide an 'automated lab report'. Those 'automated' reports often miss many of the key nuances of the mineral pattern and can in fact be misleading. I personally put in ~4 hours of my professional time into each report (yes, you are working with me directly, not someone else who I pass the work off to). I analyze your unique situation and create a PERSONALIZED 30+ page report which considers your specific symptomatology & history, interprets your charts, gives you explanation to both the physical and psychological effects that mineral imbalances may be causing you, and provides detailed supplementation and detox guidance. INCLUDED in my reports are:
- Lab charts showing your levels of 36 essential minerals as well as toxic metals.
- metabolic profile (how well your body is utilizating the nutrients it takes in)
- energy profile (how efficiently your body produces energy)
- stress response profile (your body's adaptation to, and effects from, stress)
- Comprehensive analysis of what your mineral levels and mineral ratios mean.
- Analyses of your:
* adrenal strength
* thyroid expression
* copper toxicity status
* A look at your kidney and liver stress - Supplementation suggestions (with explanations why each is being suggested, and even helpful tips on what to look for when buying certain supplements). You'll know what supplements are good for you, and which to avoid!
- Detailed dietary guidelines based on YOUR mineral profile.
- Step-by-step Restore and Rebalance Program for supporting the adrenals, liver, detoxing, and rebalancing.
7. I am passionate about what I do, motivated by seeing how a mineral imbalance (and subsequent lack of proper guidance by her physician) saliently affected a loved one. It's become my mission to educate and bring awakened awareness to this field of mineral balancing in the hope of seeing a better world where similar outcomes can be avoided and people are given informed guidance before it's too late. You can read more about my philosophy and bio here.
8. I am available and accessible. I will not make you wait weeks or months to arrange a consult. You always have access to me via email, and if you desire a phone consult, it can usually be arranged within the week.
9. My fees are competitively priced, below or on par with other professionals, despite my report being the most comprehensive and informative HTMA assessment you'll find anywhere.
10. Since 2017, 2% of all online HTMA sales is donated to TheirWorld, a global children’s charity committed to giving the most vulnerable children and young people a brighter future in their world.
