Electromagnetic Fields (EMF’s) are generated whenever an electrical current flows through a conductor. Normal household fields are generally quite small, but research over the last decade or so has shown that they can have a detrimental effect on the human body even at very low levels (in the milli or micro Gauss regions).

Most people associate problems with living under high voltage power lines only, but with the advent of mobile phone towers (short wavelength microwaves), TV towers, wireless networks and the like, we are living more and more in an ‘electromagnetic soup’. Some research has also shown that we have actually sped up the Earth’s natural vibration from 7.8 Hertz (cycles per minute) to just over 9. Whether this is a natural phenomena or man-made is yet to be proven comprehensively.

A great web site to learn more about the studies, effects and politics of EMF is http://www.microwavenews.com

An excellent Australian resource is http://www.emraustralia.com.au

Not all EMF’s are man made though. There are geomagnetic hotspots on the Earth’s surface that can also have detrimental effects (also called geopathic stress). This is where ‘Earth acupuncture’ can have great effects.

Feng Shui is in fact the very first study into the effects of EMF. The Earth is one giant electromagnetic field, and traditional Feng Shui is basically assessing the qualities of that field and it’s effect on the human body.

The EMF Assessment that we provide at Gold Dragon Feng Shui is mainly to do with reducing the effects of artificially created EM fields inside the home. We can also source grounding equipment (must be installed by a licensed electrician). The majority of modern homes are grounded to the copper water pipes that run throughout the house instead of the old fashioned pipe that was buried at the side of the house.

We use the Tri-field Meter for all our assessments. It can give very accurate readings for any area in the building, not only for magnetic fields, but for microwaves, low frequency radio waves as well as electrical fields.

We can also provide items that regulate the vibration of the EM field, making your home a safer place to live.

If you check our EMF Products Page, you will also find other products that reduce the effects of mobile phones, provide personal EMF protection as well as water quality improvement devices.
