The Reality

You’ve done everything, and your skin still isn’t listening.

You've cut out dairy, gluten, sugar, and 17 other things, and the breakouts are still showing up.

Your bathroom looks like a Sephora graveyard, and your skin still isn't playing nice.

You've seen the dermatologists. The prescriptions worked for a minute and then stopped.

You're convinced something is off inside, but you can't get anyone to take it seriously.

You've spent thousands on protocols, products, and practitioners, and you're more confused than when you started.

You’re guessing. And you can’t address what you can’t see.

Most of our clients spent $5,000+ on skincare, supplements, appointments, gadgets, and facials before they ran their first functional test.

Why your doctor’s labs missed this

Your labs came back normal. Your skin says otherwise.

Your doctor’s bloodwork is built to catch disease. HTMA offers a different view of mineral status, heavy metals, and stress patterns that may not appear in standard bloodwork.

Standard Bloodwork

  • A brief snapshot in time
  • Can miss longer-term mineral patterns
  • Standard disease ranges
  • Often misses cellular stress patterns

HTMA Testing

  • A 2–3 month cellular look
  • Analysis of 20+ minerals & heavy metals
  • Highlights mineral ratios & metabolic patterns
  • Offers context on stress-related mineral patterns

HTMA case study · What her labs revealed

Samantha

  • A heavy oxalate burden showing up in her minerals
  • Low stomach acid and sluggish digestion not breaking food down properly
  • A liver and detox pathway struggling to keep up
  • A magnesium deficit stalling clearance and slowing her bowels
  • Adrenal patterns pointing to long-term stress running the show
  • Estrogen dominance, exactly what we’d expect when detox is backed up

What it meant

“Her body wasn’t clearing what it needed to, her digestion wasn’t pulling its weight, and her hormones were paying the price.”

“I worked with KSW last September. I made changes I never thought were possible, and my body was crying out for help. I finally answered the call. My skin is glowing, my digestion has improved, and I feel more comfortable and confident in my own skin than ever before.”

Meghana M.

Hormonal + Gut

Meghana came to us skeptical and exhausted. Her HTMA showed mineral imbalances driving inflammation, and her cycle pain was through the roof. After consistent work, her jawline acne started drying up and her period pain became bearable for the first time in years.

“I am crying happy tears.”

Saif

“Every time I look in the mirror, I can’t believe what I’m seeing.”

I’d seen specialists across the US, the Middle East, and Bahrain. Dermatologists said medicine. The cream people said creams. When I got my HTMA results back and sat down with my nutritionist, your program took supplementation, food, mindset, daily habits, lymph work, and exercise, and put it all into one plan. My skin has completely changed. I’ve gone from 100 to maybe 5% at most.

In their own words

Clear guidance matters as much as the test.

Two HTMA clients share what it felt like to collect their sample, understand their results, and leave the consultation with clarity.

HTMA showed what blood labs missed

KSW and her team are so knowledgeable, trustworthy and effective at communicating. The nutritionist Liana that I had my HTMA call with was amazing. She broke down everything, answered all my questions, and had my full report ready hours later.

Kristen S.

HTMA Client

I'd been wanting to get a hair test forever. The test was easy to do and the instructions were straightforward. Joanna did my consult and took her time to help me really understand my results. My blood labs always showed fine and clearly I'm not. Highly recommend.
