Foreign
materials that we intake from the air, water and from food can
cause negative reactions in our bodies as can the absence of
essential
chemicals. Hair sampling gives us information on the types and
quantities of these chemicals in your body. Hair sampling is
a colloquial way of referring to atomic spectra
analysis
of
bodily tissues, mostly used are hair, nails, or skin scrapings,
which do not require a biopsy. Hair sampling serves the purpose
of detecting the broad mineral status in the chemistry of the
organism. This includes macro- and micro elements. Between 60
to 70 % of Canadian children are deficient in elemental calcium
and iron, thus hair sampling is a screening tool. By reason of
the numerous mining activities, amongst others, the ground water
has been contaminated with various toxic substances.
Hair sampling provides clues to these toxins, like lead, and
arsenious poisons. Hair sampling provides data about biological
essential minerals, in addition it is a valuable tool in the
area of toxicology. It detects the presence of various heavy
metals. The latter are damaging the chemistry of the organism.
Proper drainage measures are indicated. In our practice we use
a number of methods to deal with heavy metals. For instance,
there are simple botanicals which remove mercury from the organism
without burdening the filters of the kidney.
Hair sampling for trace minerals gives us a clue about deficiencies
of various elements. For instance, zinc deficiency gives problems
with wound healing and dysfunction of the reproductive organs.
A diet can be designed and implemented to include the deficient
elements, resulting in a cure.
Hair sampling then is one of the may screening tools which we
use in our practice and holistic spa retreats to bring you optimum
health in the shortest time possible.
