We use an extensive three-step process of Detection,
Correctional Planning, and Consultation to
determine what environmental factors are causing body stress. Such Stress has
been linked to acute and chronic illness such as allergies, headaches, cramps,
flu-like symptoms, fatigue, irritability, depression and failure to respond to
doctor's treatment. Studies have shown that reducing the body's exposure to toxins, that is the body
burden, can greatly enhance the body's ability to respond to treatment for autism, Alzheimer's, cancer, diabetes, chronic fatigue,
multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and many others. In addition, healthy workplaces lead to increased productivity and a decrease in
sick leave.
Factors that are body stressors in the home include
electric and magnetic fields, communication radiations, excess moisture
promoting growth of fungi and mites, animal hair and dander, household cleaning
products, toxic gases like leaking natural gas (found in about 60% of homes),
radioactive substances, radon, lead, asbestos, new paint,carpet, and earth
magnetic field disturbances. Presence of these elements causes elevated body
stress.
