The science of hair follicle testing has long been used to gain a snapshot of the body’s nutritional state. We partner with Cell-Wellbeing to bring this advanced technology to JA Manafaru as an enhancement to your wellbeing journey. A sample of three to four live hairs is collected by our trained team and analysed using specialised equipment. The data is sent to a laboratory in Germany, where a detailed 36-page report is generated. This report provides insights into optimal nutrition, foods to avoid, vitamin and mineral levels, amino acids, fatty acids, environmental stressors, and resistance factors.

Vitastiq PRO is an advanced, non-invasive electronic device using the EAV (Electroacupuncture According to Voll) method to analyse trends in ten essential vitamins and minerals. The pain-free device is applied to acupuncture points on the fingers and delivers real-time results. As your body’s nutritional needs change daily, this service is included in all wellness packages. Based on your results, our team will recommend a bespoke juice to restore nutrient balance.
