'Outstanding service, support and education on practical solutions to EMR, WIFI and dirty electricity. The meters were invaluable as they showed me the energy drain which I felt but could not pinpoint or see. No more wifi in the office, no more dirty electricity in the house. I enjoy spending time in my office now as I can work at my computer for hours without being fried, tired and restless. Thank you, Lyn!' T.S.
'I think Lyn is very committed to EMR and I thank her so much for caring about a minority group of people with this chronic disease.' J.G.
'Was a pleasure dealing with you.' S.P.

'Your kindness is much appreciated! I have a study room that tests clean for everything except electrosmog so I am going to move my bed to that room. I will also paint the walls and rehire the meter to measure after that.... but most of all thanks for your great support and service.' A.F.
'Great information. Well-presented and interesting. Thank you.' D.B. [feedback on a group talk]

'Thank you! You have been so generous :) The radiation from those smart meters has been on my mind, and I had been putting off hiring a meter for a while as I'm on a strict budget, but you made it easier for me and in hindsight it is really something worth prioritizing! I'm so glad I called you, I wish I had done it sooner!' C.H.
'The package arrived promptly at our office this morning. Again, thank you very much for the great service.' R.A.
'Thank you for your prompt response to our order. Excellent service!' B.C.
'Many thanks, Lyn for making this information freely available to us here in Australia. Over the past years I have become increasingly concerned about EMFs and their impacts on our health but have found that most information comes from The States and is not always transferable to our situation here in Australia. I am looking forward to reading your newsletters and to having your company (EMR Australia) as a valuable resource as I try to negotiate this “new” environmental threat.' Y.H.
'Thanks for providing professional, compassionate service to us and so many others. Your business is a beacon of hope for us and (I'm sure) so many others.'

'Following the recent loss of three friends due to brain cancer (and having sadly heard of others), we decided to seriously research likely causes and to minimise our risks with this health threat, which I feel is more insidious and worse than asbestos or cigarette smoking. We thus decided to make a proper effort to minimise our exposure to: (1) RF radiation from phone towers, phones, WIFIs and various appliances; (2) electro-magnetic radiation – due to poorly insulated cables, and so on.
Our research led us to EMR Australia. It was a good call. We've gained many insights (some from their free newsletter and some from their low-cost consultations) so as to best direct our spending and efforts. The EMR lady who has supported us is Lyn, who has been in this business for circa 30 years. That speaks to an insightful person with a wealth of experience, motivated by wanting to help people. That's a nice combination and what we needed.
We've bought a meter that measures radiation – an essential start - but the product on which this note focusses is the Ultima shielding fabric (or sheer curtain material), which we had made up into a replacement for the sheer curtain in our main bedroom.
Oh my goodness - what a difference it made. The RF radiation fell by about 95-99% - much better than the big reduction that we hoped to achieve. It made me so happy I was almost a bit emotional (and I'm the stoic husband writing this). Instead of having radiation in our bedroom all night unbeknown to us - it's horrible to think back on it - the RF radiation has now plummeted to an insignificant level – purely as a result of the curtain! It seems hard to believe but all you need to do is pull the sheer aside and see what happens: open -v- closed – wow...
We love the product and have bought quite a lot more for other applications in the house. e.g. to make covers for some nasties like alarm panels and front door monitors etc.
We are so grateful to EMF Australia for enlightening us, giving us health saving tips, and supplying this wonderful fabric, and a meter so we knew what we were being confronted with. We have other things to buy too and will again use them as they are decent, I trust their judgment and their pricing is competitive.' G&M
