In the winter of 2004, I sat in the audience of
a lecture Maryjane was giving at Canyon Ranch Health
Resort. At the time, I was in the process of a large
addition to my home. After listening to Maryjane, I
was enthusiastically informed and determined to change
my current project into a non-toxic environment. My
project would not be an easy assignment. I lived out
of state, my contractor had no experience with non-toxic
products or concepts, and construction on the sight
had already begun.
I hired Maryjane and warned her of the obstacles
ahead. She took that challenge and enlisted the full
cooperation of my builder. She provided endless options
to concerns or problems we encountered. No question
or request was to small or to big. “Healthy Structures”
goes beyond a job title or business for Maryjane. It
is her passion: a quest to make an impact on improving
the health of people and the environment. My family
lives in the space, and it is a great feeling knowing
that space is healthy and toxic free.

I have been environmentally sensitive for a number
of years. A new job in a high-rise office building
exacerbated my sensitivity to electricity. With the
help of Maryjane from Healthy Structures, I discovered
how to lower the electrical fields in my bedroom to
a safe level for me. I not only sleep better, I feel
better overall as my general sensitivity has decreased.
Best of all, I was able to lower the fields in my
bedroom without additional expense!

We found working with the toxic free material to be
as easy to install as the material that we have been
using in the past. Maryjane's knowledge of the products
and how to use them was fantastic. Her research and
knowledge of the field made the switch very easy;
we would definitely recommend her to anyone interested
in healthy structures. Several of our subcontractors
have switched to the friendlier products for daily
use.

Due to health issues and our desire for a healthy
environment, our kitchen floor, which was rough sawn
oak, could never be sanded and finished. We had splinters
in our feet for twelve years until Maryjane found
a product that we could use on the floor. We decided
to remodel our home after we discovered that Maryjane
could give us all the specifications for a non-toxic
environment. Her extensive knowledge base plus her
ability to communicate with our builder turned our
project into a very positive experience. We had the
added benefit of having her live in our area and found
that she has a great eye for design. We think she
is one of the most well informed people we have discovered
in this field.

I used to get sinus infections every two months, but
after working in a “healthy” office space
that Maryjane designed, I have not had any sinus or
allergy problems. I feel much healthier working in this
type of office, and this has encouraged me to be more
“toxic-free” in my own home.
