What is Electrosensitivity?

Electrosensitivity, also known as EMS, ES, electrical oversensitivity or hypersensitivity, is a state where the body becomes so sensitive to electrical fields that simple, modern, every-day tasks such as using the phone, driving a car, or working on a computer can have unbearable physical consequences for the sufferer.

With the higher levels of EMF exposure and the roll out of 5G electro sensitivity is becoming more and more common with an increased number of sufferers but still many doctors do not recognize it as a medical condition. Patients are labelled as hypochondriacs or that the problem is psychosomatic. This of course leaves people feeling helpless prolonging and increasing their suffering.

What are the symptoms of Electrosensitivity?

Symptoms may include:

  • mild to severe headaches,
  • nausea,
  • insomnia,
  • eye irritations,
  • dizziness,
  • skin rashes,
  • facial swelling,
  • fatigue,
  • joint pains,
  • buzzing/ringing in the ears,
  • abdominal pain,
  • breathing difficulties,
  • irregular heartbeat,
  • depression,
  • balance problems,
  • paralysis,
  • poor memory/concentration,
  • seizures

How do people get Electrosensitivity?

People aren’t born with this condition it develops after a prolonged period of exposure after which the body seems to reach a point of critical mass and tips over the edge into Electrosensitivity. It can even be triggered by exposure to a new electronic device.

Electrosensitivity sufferers face denial from the medical establishment and find themselves fobbed off with antidepressants or other non-effective drugs and left to suffer without support. It is only a few countries that recognise EMS as a medical condition even though it is now a worldwide rapidly growing phenomenon.

Is there anything to help with Electrosensitivity?

Yes.

  • Change your lifestyle to reduce your EMF. Consider: 
    • Keeping electronics out of the bedroom. Including a manual clock. 
    • Don't use a laptop on your lap. 
    • Only use your cell phone on hands free. 
    • Don't carry your cell phone on your body - pocket, or bra. 
    • Re configure your workspaces to put your computer, laptop and electronics as far away as possible. 
    • Check where your bed is relative to a smart meter for your home or apartment. Make sure you are not sleeping on a common wall. 
  • Public places where there is always lots of Wi-Fi signals can be particularly challenging and should be avoided as much as possible. But always be aware that even in country areas there are wireless signals and EMF.
  • Reliable EMF protection not only at home but wherever you go. In fact, you should never be without it even in bed.
