There is no doubt that a normal complement of the

There is no doubt that a normal complement of the correct minerals reduces the uptake of toxic heavy metals
.
Heavy Metal Toxicity can have a profound impact on the growth of your hair because of the nutrients they displace
.
We know Iron, Zinc, selenium etc are essential for healthy hair growth, however do you know what heavy metals displace them?
.
Heavy metals Copper, Aluminium and Mercury are antagonistic to both Iron and Zinc. Selenium can be displaced by Cadmium, Mercury, Arsenic, Aluminium and Antimony
.
If you have problems with growing healthy hair and your current protocol is giving you limited results it’s a good idea to complete some tests for heavy metal exposure
.
This can be done through blood testing or Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis
.
But remember a a hair tissue sample reflects the bio chemistry of the tissues, so don’t expect to get the same information from a blood test. A blood test is like stopping a courier in the street and having a look in his van. That single observation tells you very little about the warehouses he’s collected from or the businesses he’s about to deliver to. The biochemistry occurs in the tissues not the blood stream

You know lack of sleep can make you grumpy and fog

You know lack of sleep can make you grumpy and foggy. You may not know what it can do to your hair health, memory, overall health, looks, and even ability to lose weight
.
Insufficient amounts of sleep have been shown to have significant negative consequences on the body, which can lead directly and indirectly to conditions of hair loss and thinning hair
.
The body also undergoes numerous cycles during sleep, which promote the stem cell activity that generates epithelial cells for hair growth
.
Repeated disruption of the sleep cycle can impair these biological actions which occur inside the follicle which may lead to hair that doesn’t grow correctly
.
Remember hair in non essential and your body will prioritise where it sends energy and information too when a stressor such as poor sleep is occurring.

Accutane is a powerful drug used in the treatment

Accutane is a powerful drug used in the treatment of acne
.
Accutane belongs to a group of medicines known as retinoids, which are derivatives of vitamin A. When you take Accutane by mouth it works by reducing the production of the skin's natural oil (sebum)
.
A healthy hair follicle requires a functioning sebaceous gland, however unfortunately the medication cannot cherry pick which follicles it chooses to stop producing oil - so you can pretty much expect to see some changes in your scalp hair
.
The structure and behaviour of the hair may change alongside visual differences such as dryness, brittleness and unruliness. This may be followed with thinning of hair
.
Permanent changes to the hair can occur with high doses and prolonged periods of being medicated

Selenium is a major nutrient that helps the body f

Selenium is a major nutrient that helps the body fight diseases. It has tons of benefits, since it is also an antioxidant and plays a role in keeping the metabolic functions of the body. Additionally, it helps support healthy function of several organs
.
Selenium is also needed for healthy hair growth
.
So how does selenium help with hair growth?
.
Enzymes are molecules, used for different chemical reactions of the body. Many enzymes use selenium to do their work for them, which makes them more reactive. Some enzymes help the body clean itself from free radicals. These guys are very harmful to the healthy growth of hair and skin cells of the body since they play a major factor in premature aging and weaker hair follicles. Selenium works for healthy hair growth by killing free radicals
.
Selenium is more concentrated in the thyroid than in our other organs and is important for the proper functioning of our thyroid hormone. This hormone in turn plays a huge role in regulating hair growth and your metabolism.
.
Selenium also activates an enzyme important for the regeneration of important antioxidants in the body, such as vitamin C
.
In addition to all these benefits, selenium sulfide is used topically to treat dandruff, which is why it’s often an ingredient in anti-dandruff shampoos.😊

Trichodynia, or “hair pain,” is defined as pain while touching the hair
.
Quite often on clinical examination the scalp looks perfectly healthy and there are no obvious signs of injury or damage.

The cause of trichodynia is not known, but it is suggested to be of multifactorial origin, which includes micro inflammation in the follicle
.
Trichodynia may also correlate with emotional upset and may be present with hair loss problems such as active telogen effluvium, male and female pattern hair loss, alopecia areata, folliculitis decalvans and frontal fibrosing alopecia.

Mitochondria are important organelles found in eve

Mitochondria are important organelles found in every cell of the body and are often called ‘ the powerhouse!’ of the cell
.
Wrinkled skin and hair loss are obvious features of aging-associated changes in humans and mitochondrial disfunction has been associated with these
.
There’s no denying that hair cells are hungry hippos and they not only require the correct balance of nutrients, amino acids and environment to grow, but they also require power - remember they’re the second fastest growing cells in the body
.
Providing energy to your hair follicles often comes in the form of light therapy. Cold lasers flood the scalp with red light with penetrates the follicles at a certain wavelength
.
Don’t be fooled into thinking more lasers mean better results - this isn’t the case. The dosage of each laser is the important element
.
You may have a device with 300 lasers, but if they don’t provide the correct dose, often per cm2, then your results may be sub optimal

Did you know that your hair ages just like the res

Did you know that your hair ages just like the rest of the body - in fact it most likely ages much faster because it’s non essential
.
Hair is made of many protein strands. A single hair has a normal life between 2 and 7 years. That hair then falls out and is replaced with a new hair
.
Nearly everyone has some hair loss with aging. The rate of hair growth also slows
.
Hair strands become smaller and have less pigment. So the thick hair of a young adult eventually becomes thin, fine, light-colored hair. Many hair follicles stop producing new hairs
.
Just like with the skin you can slow the signs of hair ageing too, so you too can have a good head of hair when you’re 70!

Hair loss can affect women and men of all ages and has significant social and psychological results
.
Although the hair loss itself does not cause a functional problem, it is visually an important part of the outer appearance in both women and men
.
The loss or disruption of this part can cause several psychological/psychiatric problems such as depression, anxiety, anger, fatigue, low self-esteem, embarrassment, discomfort with appearance, lower self-regard, self-consciousness, decrease in school performance and social withdrawal

Just like facial acne, there are a number of reaso

Just like facial acne, there are a number of reasons why acne pops up on your scalp: stress, hormonal balances, certain foods, and abnormal immune responses can all be contributing factors. Often oil-based products like heavy pomades can cause clogging of the pores or glands, which makes washing (and styling) your hair with the right products even more important
.
.

Pimples occur when pores, or hair follicles, get clogged. This can occur when dead skin cells, naturally occurring oil that keeps the skin moisturized (sebum), and bacteria enter the pores. The cells cannot exit the pore, which results in acne in a variety of forms. More severe forms of acne contain more bacteria

When considering visiting a Trichologist to addres

When considering visiting a Trichologist to address your hair loss or scalp problem, it’s always a good idea to start with some information
.
Do some investigation work online
.
Call the practice and ask questions, like for example;
.
What can I expect from my initial consultation?
.
Or what type of hair loss or scalp problems can you help with
.
Any reputable Trichologist will have nothing to hide and will willingly offer the information
.
The job of a Trichologist is to educate you on your hair and scalp problem, gather information which will lead to a diagnosis, discuss what treatment options are available to you and then manage or treat that said problem. You may even need further investigation work with a medical professional
.
Like things in life, not all practitioners are created equal and so you’re not led down the garden path, do some research so you get a positive outcome

The information blood tests can provide is often crucial in the treatment of hair loss and/or reduced hair volume
.

At The HairPhysio they are an integral part of our holistic treatment approach to addressing hair and scalp problems
.

Trichologists analyse blood tests differently than a medical doctor. When we assess results, we are looking for readings that might affect your hair – a non-essential tissue. Being non-vital tissue, hair is often affected by subtle changes. In fact, numbers may be within the normal range and still impact your hair. Your GP will use blood test results to flag levels that might be damaging to your general health, and essential tissues, such as your liver and heart. As such, the hair is commonly overlooked in routine testing

Hair loss is an extremely distressing problem, and

Hair loss is an extremely distressing problem, and it's generally not well-received by men or women
.
.
If you started a new antidepressant within the past few months, it may be one reason you're seeing more hair on your brush. Unfortunately, while antidepressants exist to improve your mental health, some of the side effects can be a blow to your self-esteem
.
.
The type of hair loss caused by antidepressants is called telogen effluvium. Telogen effluvium occurs when your body is stressed in some way—perhaps by illness, surgery, mental stress, or poor nutrition or a medication, which causes hair follicles to enter into the resting stage (telogen phase) prematurely. Because more hair follicles are now in this resting stage, more hair is shed, leading to diffuse hair loss all over the scalp
.
.
Unfortunately when it is imperative the patient be medicated telogen effluvium can become chronic because the trigger cannot be removed. In cases like this it’s a good idea to visit a professional who can put in place a structured programme to support the follicles - thus promoting improved hair growth
