NEW RELIEF FOUND FOR ALLERGY SUFFERERS

(Los Angeles) – Allergy sufferers, representing more than one out of every four Americans, can now find a new source of relief. It is not available over the counter at the local pharmacy or a medicine prescribed by medical practitioners. It is a treatment that is performed right in their own home.

A joint conference of the American and Canadian Lung Associations, held over four years ago, reported that millions of microscopic dust mites, feeding on dead skin flakes that accumulate in the typical bedroom mattress, were causing allergy and asthma attacks at alarming levels. They have always been there. No one knew to look for them.

Their findings, along with extensive medical evidence, revealed that dust mites excrete a compound called guanine, which has been found to be the dominant cause of most allergies and other widespread maladies such as asthma, eczema, hay fever, bronchitis, inflammation of the mucous membranes, itchy red eyes, headaches, fatigue and depression.

Over the last couple of years, updated reports about dust mites and their effect on people, have appeared on local TV news shows all around the country, as well as on national news shows, such as CNN. This topic was even discussed on three separate shows on “Oprah.”

Reports show that even the cleanest homes have dust mites. They are so small, they cannot be seen with the human eye. It is estimated that around 1000 dust mites could fit on the head of a pin.

The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology says dust mites are the number two cause of allergy problems, right after pollen.

The Mayo Clinic has reported that ideal habitats for dust mites include mattresses, pillows, carpets, upholstered furniture and even stuffed toys. Depending on environmental conditions, in any given home, there could be anywhere from 100,000 to 10 million dust mites in a typical mattress. 

While this information might be a revelation to most Americans, the fact is that Europeans have been aware of these findings for many years, which is why the business of cleaning and sanitizing mattresses has grown to the point where there are now more than 4300 dealers performing this service in tens of thousands of European homes and commercial locations on a regular basis.

“I just recently heard about the business of cleaning and sanitizing mattresses,” says Harold Celik, a businessman who resides in Chatsworth. “I even remember seeing a story about dust mites on CNN and on ‘Oprah.’ I was surprised to learn just how effective and how simple it was to perform this type of service,” adds Celik, who has suffered from allergies for years.

Celik was convinced that he should form a company and be the one to bring this low-cost and highly-effective process to the allergy sufferers of the Greater Los Angeles area.

After doing some research, he found an innovative company in Florida called Hygienitech Mattress Cleaning and Sanitizing. “When I witnessed, firsthand, what the process extracted from a relatively new mattress, followed by an allergen detection test, which clearly indicated the level of dust mite contamination,” Celik says,I was not only convinced that this was an excellent and much needed service, but I could not wait to get home and clean the mattresses in my own house.”

The scientifically-proven Hygienitech process is an all-natural, chemical free, dry treatment using UV-C (germicidal) light that is completely safe for treating all types of mattresses. Celik’s newly-formed company, Hygienitech California, now offers a free in-home allergen and mattress contamination test that takes only a few minutes to perform.

“I’m very happy that my new company is really taking off and I probably have the cleanest and most sanitized home in the city,” exclaims Celik. “No more irritated eyes or stuffy nose. Now, I can enjoy a full night’s sleep.”
