People excel at creating homes that make them sick. A third of North American houses are home to at least one environmentally sensitized person - it's even more common than diabetes! Sensitivities often express themselves as allergies, fatigue, nausea, headaches, difficulty sleeping, frequent colds, psoriasis, tingling sensations etc.
These symptoms are often treated with short term remedies or by avoiding the cause. But usually what we identify as the 'cause' is simply the 'straw that broke the camel's back'. While we might believe that the debilitating symptom is being provoked by a fluorescent light, shampoo, washing powder, or even the chlorine in our tap water, there's usually a combination of sources that have undermined the immune system to the point where those simple things provoke a reaction.
At sickhousesurvival we look at the house as the 'envelope' of your 24 hour exposures. There are three parts to our successful 'groundbreaking' approach to reducing environmental sensitivities and restoring a healthy immune system . We can help you:
- identify your exposures throughout the day and night by telling you where to look and what to look for.
- tackle your exposures strategically. Some exposures, like electricity, or light at night, have a more profound impact on your immune system than your selection of body lotion.
- prioritize your efforts for maximum effect. Your long term goal may be to reduce the chlorine in your water but short term it may be enough to simply close the ensuite bathroom door.
