Joachim Herrmann and Healthy Homes and Building Biology- Episode 8

Today’s conversation is with Joachim Herrmann.

Joachim is a pioneer in the Australian Building Biology industry who originally studied the German Building Biology course in New Zealand. Passionate about biology, ecology and social studies he has always been interested in making connections.

It is no surprise then that when he conducts home and office consultations throughout NSW to improve health and productivity, he often works in conjunction with other holistic healing professionals like allergy specialists, child therapists, naturopaths or integrative medicine practitioners

In today’s conversation Joachim explains why he created the Healthy House Australia certification, and what it encompasses. We also delve into some of the important factors Building Biologists look for to help their clients and discuss many tips that people can start to consider or adopt to assist them on their journey to establishing a healthy home.

We love that Joachim is a positive individual that is dedicated to providing empowering messages to help people on their journey to health.
