The American Academy of Environmental Medicine
has been in existence since the 1960s. This organization sets forth principles
and guidelines for practitioners practicing environmental medicine as well as
continuing education, political advocacy and accreditation. Environmental Medicine attempts to uncover the
relationship between a patient's environment and their ill health. The number of
allergens in our environment are increasing with each potentially contributing
to a patients total load of allergy. Chronic and often obscure health problems
may result from low levels of numerous allergen exposures over time. Multiple
chemical sensitivities require careful evaluation of a patients past medical
history, community, home, hobbies, occupation, diet and medications.
Environmental Medicine has been helping patients through
provocation/neutralization for over 40 years.
