Electromagnetic frequencies (EMF) and wireless radiation (Radiofrequencies or “RF”) have now become the largest, fastest growing and most hazardous set of building toxins. While it is impossible to completely avoid EMFs in society, we can find the sources and reduce exposure in critical spaces.
Common Sources of EMF
Appliances and building wiring
Mobile phone towers
WiFi routers
Bluetooth devices
Electric cars
Baby monitors
High voltage transmission & power lines
Inverters from solar panels
Lighting
Phones
Radioactivity
Wireless technology
Smart meters and the meter box
We measure and identify 4 types of Electromagnetic Fields:
MAGNETIC FIELDS
Caused by net current flowing and current flowing in places it shouldn't be.
wiring errors in homes can produce elevated magnetic fields
pipes and cable lines
AC to DC transformers
metal in bed frames and furniture can be magnetized
ELECTRIC FIELDS
Caused by building wiring being energized. These electric fields induce voltage on the body.
Radiofrequency (RF)
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) from equipment and devices that send and receive information wirelessly. The higher frequency radiation created by:
cell phones
Wi-Fi
bluetooth
cordless phones
smart meters
radar
+ many other technologies
DIRTY ELECTRICITY
A higher frequency transients and harmonics found on building wiring.
Power supplies that convert electricity from alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) typically create dirty electricity.
Harmful Health Effects from EMF Exposure
Symptoms and levels of severity can vary person to person from different electromagnetic field intensities and frequencies. Overexposure or sensitivity to EMFs can express with the following symptoms:
learning and memory deficits
neurological disorders
concentration difficulties
headaches
insomnia / sleep problems
anxiety
depression
irritability
chronic fatigue
nausea
cellular damage
allergy stress responses
increased cancer risk
DNA damage
heart palpitations
leukemia
tumors
low sperm count
compromised reproductive system
compromised immune system
chemical sensitivities
electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS)
DID YOU KNOW?
Electromagnetic Fields have been classified as a Group 2B possible carcinogen by the World Health Organization in 2011.
Children Are At Greater Risk
Multiple studies have proven that children absorb over two times the radiation as adults. Read the study to learn why children are more susceptible.
Research Studies On EMFs & Health
Thousands of studies indicate harmful effects from EMF radiation. The BioInitiative Report provides a deep dive into the health effects of EMF. It examines the research of over 3800 studies on EMR (electromagnetic radiation), reviews the current exposure standards and finds that they are far from adequate to protect public health. Research studies continue to be published showing the deleterious effects of EMFs on humans, animals, insects, and plants.

Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR / EMF) Testing
Electromagnetic testing is a complex procedure that requires calibrated state-of-the-art EMF detection meters and in-depth understanding of electrical principles. We are certified Electromagnetic Radiation Specialists (EMRS) who understand the various fields that impact the built environment, how building materials affect exposure to radio frequencies, and EMF shielding solutions. We conduct thorough measurements and assess your living space to determine if the levels of radiation are within acceptable ranges.
