IT'S A
TOXIC WORLD
Today more than 77,000
chemicals are in active production in this country. We are continually
subjected to poor air quality, chemically contaminated food and water,
household cleansers, paint fumes, pharmaceutical drugs, pesticides,
heavy metals (including mercury) and the list goes on and on. It's true
that when ingested these chemicals can remain in the body for years,
altering our metabolism, causing enzyme dysfunction and nutritional
deficiencies, creating hormonal imbalances and lowering our threshold
of resistance to chronic disease. These chemicals and heavy metals make
up the "total toxic burden". When our bodies exceed the limit that we
can excrete, we begin to store these toxins. This bioaccumulation
seriously compromises our physiological and psychological health and
leads to chronic disease.
TOXICITY
SYMPTOMS
Allergies, acne,
anxiety, burning skin, brain fog, chronic fatigue, chemical
sensitivities, depression, eczema, frequent colds or flu, feeling "sick
all over", insomnia, loss of dexterity, low body temperature, memory
loss, mood swings, muscle and joint pains, poor concentration and many
others.
DETOX
DETOX DETOX
Infrared sauna is
recognized by health practitioners worldwide as perhaps the most
effective method of removing both chemical and heavy metal toxins from
the body.

"A sauna used to be thought of as a
luxury. But studies now confirm that diet and environmental chemicals
cause 95% of all cancers. Furthermore, as the first generation of man
exposed to such an unprecedented plethora of daily chemicals we have
learned that stored or un-detoxified chemicals can mimic any disease.
'Incurable' chronic diseases that were thought to have no known cause
often disappear once toxic chemicals are gone. Since the far infrared
sauna is the safest, most efficacious and economical way of depurating
stored toxins; this makes it a household necessity."

IMMUNE
SYSTEM
A typical sauna
session will cause a brief and minor increase in body temperature,
identical to the body's defense mechanism against bacteria, microbes
and consequent infection. The beneficial side effect triggers the
production of while blood cells (leukocytes) by your bone marrow and
killer T cells by your thymus. The result is immune system improvement.
CARDIOVASCULAR
CONDITIONING
A 20-30 minute session
in an Infrared Sauna has the effect on the cardiovascular system
similar to that from a six mile run. The body's natural reaction to
heat is to cool itself. It does this by diverting blood from internal
organs to the extremities and skin. This increases heart rate, cardiac
output and metabolic rate. Medical research indicates that use of
infrared sauna therapy may be as effective a means of cardiovascular
conditioning as regular exercise. This is especially important to those
individuals who are not physically capable of exercising. NASA
concluded in the 1980's that far infrared stimulation is the ideal way
for astronauts to maintain cardiovascular conditioning during long
space flights.
WEIGHT
CONTROL
Infrared therapy sauna
assists in weight loss in three significant ways:
•
It effectively reduces heavy metals, which have been directly related
to metabolic imbalances in the body, causing poor digestion and weight
gain.
• The infrared sauna decreases fat stored
(lipophilic) toxins. Often time's weight loss cannot be accomplished
unless these toxins are moved first.
• Although weight loss due to perspiration (water
loss) is quickly regained, sending more blood to the capillaries and
converting fats and carbohydrates results in as much has 600 calories
burned during one short sauna session.
CELLULITE
Because cellulite is a
gel-like substance made up of fat, water and waste products trapped
near the surface of the skin, use of the infrared sauna is very
beneficial. Infrared therapy is especially effective in cellulite
removal when used in conjunction with a program including diet and
massage.
STRESS
Continuous strain on
the autonomic nervous system often leads to a high level of stress; one
of the elusive causes of many chronic diseases. By facilitating the
expansion of capillary vessels thereby improving circulation, stress
levels are reduced.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Infrared saunas are a
serious method of detoxification and, as such, should be used
responsibly. Those patients with severe adrenal suppression, Lupus or
Multiple Sclerosis should discuss far infrared therapy with their
doctor prior to use. Use of far infrared therapy for hemophiliacs is
contraindicated. Pregnant women and nursing mothers should also refrain
from using this therapy. If you are under a doctor's care, always
consult him/her prior to use.
INFRARED
SAUNAS vs TRADITIONAL HIGH HEAT SAUNAS
Traditional high heat
saunas operate at temperatures of 180 o F to 220 o F. Most people
cannot tolerate this high temperature for very long and it causes the
mucous membranes to dry out. This is why water or steam is introduced.
Patients use the far infrared saunas at between 100 degrees F to 130 F.
This feels like a warm dry room and the perspiration characteristics
are significantly improved. Not only does the perspiration contain more
toxins and less water but also more toxins will be expelled out through
your kidneys, liver and even hair due to "resonant absorption". This
resonant absorption is said to occur when the frequency of the far infrared
matches the frequency of the water in the cell. This causes toxins from
the cells to be put out into the blood stream and excreted in sweat, feces
and urine.
Also, Infrared Saunas:
•
Constructed of hypoallergenic poplar wood, not cedar.
• Significant detoxification due to "resonant
absorption".
• Are safer. (No hot surfaces. No high
temperatures.)
IN
CONCLUSION
You should use Far
infrared sauna therapy if:
•
You have chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, mercury poisoning, any of the
symptoms previously mentioned or
• You are struggling with heavy metal or
multi-chemical toxicity or
• You are in good health and wish to remain in good
health by lowering your toxic burden
• You are a health practitioner treating patients
with the above conditions.
In combination with
Colonics, the Ionic Footbath, Lymphatic Drainage therapy, etc., or as a
stand alone treatment, the Far Infrared Sauna can be a powerful
addition to your Detoxification process. See costs sheet for more
details about the Far-Infrared Sauna.
