Prevention is the best electromagnetic hypersensitivity treatment
Are you suffering from unexplained symptoms and want to find out whether it could be electro hypersensitivity or other toxins in your environment?
Electronic devices are now an intrinsic part of everyday life. Mobile phones, Wifi, Smart home devices, computers – it is difficult to get away from them. Devices like Wi-Fi routers, computers, microwave ovens, and smart home appliances release electromagnetic fields (EMF). An increasing number of people believe the symptoms they are experiencing are the result of a reaction to the EMFs emitted from electronics.
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity – fact or fiction?
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity or electrohypersensitivity (EHS) has not yet been recognised as an illness by the medical community, although it is recognised as a syndrome made up of a collection of symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, sleeping disorders, anxiety, pain and depression. So there is no established electromagnetic hypersensitivity treatment available from the mainstream health providers.
In spite of its portrayal as a mental illness by large swathes of the media, there is growing evidence of possible ill effects from EMFs at low levels. My approach is not to try and convince anyone of anything. I am here for those that are worried about the effects of EMFs on their health, and who think they may have electromagnetic hypersensitivity and are looking for some help. I simply provide advice and practical measures to take to protect and improve your living environment.
What are the symptoms of electromagnetic hypersensitivity?
For people suffering unexplained symptons like dizziness, headaches, fatigue or tingling, this is all very distressing. If you are experiencing symptons like these and want to find out more about the potential for these to be caused by a reaction to EMFs, you will find more information on this site. Or you can book a consultation with me to test your home. My approach is to share the information and experience I have acquired over the years and leave you to make up your mind about the issue and whether you want to take some steps to minimise EMFs in your home or workspace.
Improve the impact of your living, sleeping or work spaces on your health and well being
Electroprotect is an indoor environmental consultancy. Previously a qualified electirican, I am trained in an approach known as “building biology”. Put very simply this is a set of standards for the indoor environment which support human health, emotional wellbeing and happiness.
Does your indoor environment have an impact on your health or wellbeing?
Have you noticed the way that different internal spaces can affect the way you feel? If you have ever spent a day working in front of a screen in a strip-lit office, with no natural light, you will know that you don’t feel great by the end of the day. We spend much of our time indoors. This means we are subject to a whole range of chemical and electrical influences from the materials and environment surrounding us. Electromagnetic fields, formaldehyde, fungus, mould, gases and poor air quality all place a burden on our biological systems.
What is “Building Biology”?
The practice of “building biology” is an emerging field that puts together knowledge from different sciences. It addresses the impact of your environment on mental and physical well being and has developed a set of standards for built environment based upon 25 “building biology” principles. Practitioners study the fundamentals and then choose one area in which to specialise. My previous experience with electrical engineering lead me towards electromagnetic and indoor environmental specialisation. But equally, it is a field where you could look at the building materials, layout, natural light and consider what would improvements can be made for your health and well being.
Why should we be concerned about EMFs?
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) at all frequencies are one of the fastest growing environmental influences. Everyone is exposed to EMF, and these levels will continue to increase as our use of technology does.
Global safety standards for public exposure to microwave radiation were created in 1996. Today, they are the subject of legal challenges because, since then, they have not been revised to reflect better understanding. their effects or the wider proliferation of wireless technology. Increasing numbers of people are reporting symptoms of electromagnetic hypersensitivity. Its effects on children, who are more sensitive, are of particular concern.
If you are looking for an electromagnetic hypersensitivity treatment, prevention is often the best approach. ElectroProtect can assess the risks in your home or workspace and provide advice and interventions to help protect your home and family. We can also provide advice on how to maximize the natural health of your home environment at the design stage of a home construction or renovation project or when installing environmental improvements.
Services
ElectroProtect provides an end to end service helping you to identify and address the health hazards in your living or working environment, particularly those from electromagnetic fields. We will assess your home or workspace for health hazards and provide realistic and cost-effective ways to address them. We are also available for consultancy and educational projects whether 1-2-1 or with groups.
Information and Resources
I began researching the impact of environmental influences on health and well being after my own experience suffering from debilitating symptoms with no easily identifiable cause. Having spent many years studying the available research on the topic and completing training in the Building Biology approach, I have collected alot of information and resources. I am sharing some of these so people can make up their own minds about the issue and whether it is relevant to them.
