Our holistic approach:
The culture of Healthy Body & Mind
Why Petra Wellness
Petra Wellness Lab consists of a small but dedicated team of health professionals in the field of Biology, Traditional and Modern Medicine & Health Coaching. We design and perform custom hair-testing protocols specially curated for individuals who are keen on taking great care of their overall health, wellness, fitness and spiritual balance.
We chose the name Petra precisely for it symbolises the convergence of tradition, history, and also holistic health. Petra, a historical city located at the crossroads of the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East, stands as a testament to human endeavour and architectural prowess. Its very name, derived from the Greek word for 'rock', symbolises strength, stability, and the foundational core of our well-being. Rocks can weather centuries and still preserve their shape and consistency, much like our inherent human capacity to harness our body's innate resilience and vibrance. We are committed to help you do exactly that.
Rooted in Holistic Wisdom
Located in historic Athens, Greece, our facility draws inspiration from the legacies of two iconic figures: Hippocrates, the pioneering physician, and Pythagoras, the revered philosopher. Their teachings, especially Hippocrates’ insights on individualised nutritional balance, comprises one facet of our comprehensive Vitality Test. This ancient wisdom, combined with the Hippocratic understanding of the deep interplay between diet, mind, and spirit, is more relevant now than ever.
In today's world, where modern science and technology enable deeper insights into our physiology, we harness these advancements to provide a holistic understanding of one's health. Our test, while embracing the principles of holistic traditions, is a multifaceted journey that delves into the myriad complexities of the human body, its healing mechanisms, and the sources of potential imbalances.
Culturally and Geographically Tailored Approach
At Petra Wellness Lab, we acknowledge the distinct environmental, dietary, and cultural characteristics of the Middle East and the Eastern Mediterranean region. Our specially curated test is tailored to align with these attributes. We incorporate elements like the olive tree, native to both regions, and date sugar, derived from the widely cherished date palms. The prominence of camels and acacia trees in the Middle Eastern landscape is also reflected in our test components. Essential to the region's culinary palette, spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cardamom have been factored in. To account for the unique environmental aspects of the region, our test evaluates sensitivities to agents like sand, dust, and specific urban pollutants. Furthermore, considering the Middle East's rich reserves, we also look into potential reactions related to oil and fossil fuels. Our approach ensures that our test is a reflection of both scientific precision and regional relevance.
Your body knows best
The simplicity of the holistic approach
Inclusive, broad insight
Listen to the signals of your body and let it be pure of anything that may cause imbalance. Improve your nutrition and lifestyle without experimenting with random advice.
Our bioenergetic assessments only require a few strands of clean hair. No need for blood draws. It is easy, painless, and leaves no side effects. Embrace the simplicity of the holistic approach.
Our protocols extend beyond mere food intolerances. We delve deep, analysing a broad spectrum of frequencies from environmental elements to potential organ imbalances.
How is hair-testing done
For our hair-testing protocols we use energetic or bioenergetic screening. This is an evolved method belonging to the Complementary and Alternative Medicine category, that detects frequencies (oscillation of waves) in order to determine imbalances and optimal frequencies in any part of the body. Bioenergetic testing can find out areas or organs where energy flow is higher or lower than normal. This excess or lack of energy may take various forms, which can be translated – using appropriate software – into usable information. For example, it can tell us, among others:
- about the body’s behaviour (tolerance) towards specific foods or groups of foods,
- whether there is a need for certain nutrients (vitamins, minerals etc.),
- the possible reaction of the body to materials, substances or environmental elements.
Energetic screening tests are not like laboratory or clinical blood tests. The information they provide does not constitute a medical diagnosis, but an assessment that can even see through at subclinical level. It examines frequencies, rather than chemical indicators or conventional markers.
