Sweating It....

Breathing is getting better every day but to help my detox along I decided to relax in the far-infrared sauna.  After a full day in the clinic, I grabbed the novel I am desperately trying to find time to finish 11/22/63 by Stephen King, a water, and a towel, and sat for 30 minutes in our far-infrared sauna so I could sweat out some of the toxins.

A far-infrared sauna uses infrared heaters to heat the body not just the air in the sauna.  This allows for an atmosphere which is easier to breath in rather than the steam saunas found in most spas.  By going into the sauna for 30 minutes - 1 hour a sweat will be induced.  Some patients sweat a lot and some only slightly but it is hopefully drawing out some of the toxins which could lie just under the skin.  A good sweat can also help  build a stronger immune system which is a benefit I could use for not only the asthma but also the overall detox.  The final benefit I use the far-infrared (FIR) sauna for is for stress relief, the heat relaxes the muscles which helps relieve overall tension.

Our sauna is big enough to fit 4 adults comfortably and only cost $10 for 30 minutes.  You can even book an   appointment online.  You should try this great relaxation source.  It is even better on cold days!!
