Grounding & EMF Consulting
Touching the earth and or “grounding” as well as reducing electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure are important factors affecting heath and welling.
As a functional medicine practitioner and health coach I help you to learn about the benefits of connecting to the earth and help you to understand where EMF exposure is coming from in your home environment to improve your heath and wellbeing. We live in a time where connecting to nature is not necessarily a part of our every day life and where technology has become a part of our everyday lives. This is not how our ancestors lived. My goal is to bring a little more balance into our current lives and relationship with technology and to support safe use of technology by providing practical solutions to reduce exposure to EMFs and support grounding.
What is Grounding?
Grounding — also called Earthing — is the practice of touching or connecting our body to the earth. This can be done by either touching ones bare skin to the earth or using connective devices to connect the body to the earth. This therapeutic practice helps to improve wellbeing and feelings of connectedness.
Connecting one’s body to the earth allows for positive charge from the environment to be grounded allowing free electrons from the earth to flow into the body. These available electrons neutralize free radicals preventing damage to healthy cells and body systems which is called oxidative stress.
Research has shown that oxidative stress contributes to inflammation, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, anxiety and depression, sleep disturbances, cardiovascular disease, healing recovery and stress and cortisol levels.
Using meters to test the grounding system and the charges emitted by the electrical system in your home I provide you simple solutions to gain the benefits of grounding in your home environment. I provide phone, online or home visits to discuss exposure and solutions.
What Are EMFs And Why Does It Matter?
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are created by many electronic devices that we use and have in our homes such as cell phones, computers, WiFi routers, blue tooth devises, and smart meters. EMFs can negatively affect our health and contribute to free radical damage, headaches, fatigue, anxiety, depression, irritability, sleep disturbance, concentration and memory challenges, digestive disturbance, tremors, cardiac irregularities, and dizziness.
Research has shown that EMFs are neurotoxic meaning that they can affect our nervous systems, including our brains and spinal cords. EMFs are genotoxic meaning they can affect our cellular DNA or genetic blueprint. DNA damage or alterations can lead to many diverse illnesses not only in those exposed to EMFs but also potentially in future. EMFs have been shown to be carcinogenic and disruptive to hormonal balance affecting the male and female reproductive systems and fertility.
Using a high frequency EMF meter, I help you to understand where EMF exposure is coming from in your home environment and work with you to reduce exposure through practical solutions. I provide phone, online or home visits to discuss EMF exposure and solutions.
