    \u2022\u00a0 Option #1<\/strong> – Schedule a time to get a hair sample taken at Options Center [do NOT color or perm your hair become coming], give staff your filled out paper, pay using credit card, and schedule your first phone appointment with Helen.<\/p>\n

    \u2022\u00a0 Option #2<\/strong> – Return papers to Options Center and ask for a hair sample kit.\u00a0 Then ask someone to cut your hair and return the hair sample with payment.\u00a0 When Options receives the hair sample and payment, Helen will schedule your first phone appointment with you.<\/p>\n

    A small sample of hair is sent to a lab for evaluation of the person’s mineral levels. This test can detect mineral imbalances, deficiencies, and excesses. Significant information determined by hair analysis includes a person’s metabolism, vitamins and minerals for supplementation, and recommendations of what foods to eat and to avoid. If you have questions about what Trace Mineral Analyses (TMAs) are about, you might find these Frequently Asked Questions<\/a> (FAQs) about Hair Analysis and TMAs interesting and informative.<\/p>\n
