As a holistic practitioner, I take a strong personal interest in searching out the best ways to heal the body and help maintain a premium health status.  I only take in modalities that are safe, affordable and do what they claim to do.  I have no interest in wasting my time or yours in health practices that do not deliver.

 We have incorporated Far Infrared Sauna in our practice because of the absolutely wonderful health benefits that come from this type of healing and detoxification modality. This type of aid for healing many diverse conditions is truly impressive to me.

Shocking statistics reveal that in North America alone there are over 77,000 chemicals being produced.  3,000 of them have been added to our food supply.  It has been reported that many of those chemicals cannot be metabolized properly by our bodies.  What happens to them?  They get stored in our fat cells where they continue to accumulate.  

Research has shown most people have between 400 and 800 chemical residues in their bodies which include PCB’s, dioxins, xylene and dichlorobenzene.  The infrared sauna therapy is one of the safest and most powerful ways to eliminate toxic metals, toxic chemicals and chronic infections.

Sauna use slowly and effectively restores elimination through the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body and one of the body’s main elimination routes. In most people the skin is inactive, congested and toxic. Sun exposure, use of synthetic clothing, bathing in chlorinated water and exposure to hundreds of chemicals damage the skin. Excessive sympathetic nervous system activity and emotions such as fear, anger and guilt cause blood to be withdrawn from the skin, contributing to inactivity of the skin.  The far infrared sauna helps to restore this organ to a state of optimum performance.

Enhanced Sweating.  

Sweating in a sauna is a by-product of applying heat to the body. The sweating process gently and safely helps eliminate all heavy metals and toxic chemicals. Medical studies demonstrate that most toxins can be eliminated through the skin, relieving the burden on the kidneys and liver. Sweating increases dramatically in most people after several months of daily sauna use.

Sweating during exercise is not nearly as effective for detoxification because exercise activates the sympathetic nervous system. Sympathetic nervous activity inhibits toxin elimination.

Exercise benefits. 

Saunas provide many of the benefits of exercise with much less expenditure of energy. These include enhanced circulation and oxidation of the tissues. Repeated sauna use can lower elevated blood pressure and improve the elasticity of the arteries. Saunas are most helpful for cardiovascular rehabilitation, arthritis, allergies, skin conditions and chemical sensitivity.

Decongesting the internal organs. 

Heating the body powerfully shunts blood toward the skin to dissipate heat. This decongests the internal organs and greatly stimulates circulation. Sinuses, joints and many other tissues benefit greatly.

Fever therapy (hyperthermia) for infections. 

Raising body temperature powerfully assists the body to kill bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses. Many people have a low body temperature and, for this reason, cannot get rid of chronic infections. Common sites of infections are the sinuses, ears, eyes, bladder, throat and intestines.

Tumors, radiation poisoning and mutated cells. Hyperthermia also helps kill other types of abnormal cells. Tumors, for example, tolerate heat poorly. Raising body temperature hastens their death. Though not a conventional method, hyperthermia is a well-researched therapy for cancer. Heat also disables or kills cells mutated by radiation or damaged by other toxins.

Inhibiting the sympathetic nervous system. 

This is tremendous benefit not offered by many therapies of any kind. It enables the body to relax, heal and regenerate itself much faster, causing recovery from many types of ailments.

Oxygenating and hydrating the cells and organs, and improving circulation.
