What is Multiple Chemical Sensitivity?

Many Indoor Health Care Associates can cite patients with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), which is a disorder with symptoms that affect the the human body and the respiratory system. Multiple chemical sensitivity is derived through exposure to chemicals in the environment. Persons who suffer with multiple chemical sensitivity can have a reaction to everything from perfumes to off gassing of new carpets and other chemically toxic products.

The symptoms of multiple chemical sensitivity are different and unique to each individual making MCS one of the most difficult disorders to diagnose and to treat. Many symptoms are the same as those of allergy sufferers.

WHAT CAN BE DONE

Avoid Chemicals that may trigger Chemical Sensitivity reactions. We suggest cleaning the air in your home. Indoor Health Care Network carries a whole line of Austin Air cleaners, which come highly recommended by those individuals who have been diagnosed as chemically sensitive.

MAY WE SUGGEST THE AUSTIN HEALTHMATE+ SUPERBLEND

• The SuperBlend filter is specifically designed for the Chemically Sensitive
• Along with all of the protection of the Standard HEPA filter, the carbon in the SuperBlend has been specially treated with Zeolite - a special compound that adsorbs thousands of odors and gases

The benefits don't stop there. Austin Air cleaners not only adsorb more odors and gases, they are also constructed with the chemically sensitive in mind.

All steel construction, powder coat paint, no cardboard and no plastic parts ensure no harmful off gassing. Not every air cleaner can make that claim. If you are chemically sensitive, we strongly encourage you to take a closer look at how your air cleaner is constructed before you purchase one.
