We are a centre of excellence in environmental medicine and as such have selected only the safest materials in our construction. We used zero VOC (volatile organic compounds) paints; furniture constructed from materials without formaldehyde, urea and other VOCs; flooring made from Italian porcelain fired at high temperature which eliminates off gassing; high efficiency ultra air filters are at work to eliminate particulate matter and airborne microorganisms; electrical wiring and devices are shielded to reduce or eliminate electromagnetic fields; no wireless devices are used in the clinic and surrounding offices to eliminate radio frequency fields; we have adopted a zero tolerance to perfumes and other scents.
