Not only do saunas feel good,
they are good! Saunas get your heart beating and
your blood circulating, helping the body to detoxify in unique
and important ways. Toxins do the damage, and saunas help
with damage control.
Saunas or other treatments help to accomplish
detoxification in the following manner:
A layer of fat and oil exists just below
the surface of the skin. Heat from the sauna increases skin
temperature, causing those fats and oils to “melt”
and ooze out of the skin’s oil glands. As sweat and
oil are secreted, the toxins dissolved in them are secreted
as well. By excreting these toxins and them washing them off
your body, your toxic load is lowered and cellular health
improves.
hoose a temperature that can be tolerated
for an extended period of time-thirty minutes to an hour or
more. The point is not to sweat out a lot of water, but to
rid your body of oil-soluble toxins.
Our skin contains sweat glands and oil glands,
both of which help us detoxify. Sweat gets rid of water-soluble
toxins, and even help to eliminate toxic heavy metal such
as mercury and cadmium. Oil glands help removes oil-soluble
toxins that the body would otherwise have a difficult time
eliminating.
We have created a world filled with oil-soluble
toxins such as gasoline, solvents, pesticides and ingredients
in toothpaste and personal car products, and the body is not
able to dispose of them efficiently.
The longer the skin is heated, the more
oil-soluble toxins are eliminated. Be careful not to overheat!
The challenge is finding an environment where you can keep
your skin temperature up for an extended period of time without
overheating or dehydrating. Overheating and perhaps feeling
dizzy can happen easily if you stay in a steam room, a hot
tub or the top bench of a hot sauna too long.
Choose a “low temperature” sauna,
and use it for an extended period of time an hour or more
is best though you may have to work up to this duration gradually.
Remember drinking adequate amounts of water before, during
and after your sauna is essential in order to prevent dehydration.
A good supplement program, containing fat-mobilizing
vitamins and essential fatty acids makes the sauna even more
effective.
Be sure to shower afterwards; prevent those
toxins from reabsorbing back into your body by washing with
a non toxic Castile (olive oil) soap.
Taking saunas or other “heat treatments”
is not a luxury, but like exercise, is a physical responsibility
and an important element of the physical responsibility and
an important element of the physical pathway.
Incorporating saunas after exercise is even
better. Exercise beings to mobilize toxins and saunas continue
the process.
You may need to make a few sauna visits
before you can tolerate extended periods of time, but the
benefits of these heat treatments are incredible.
Theses treatments feel good for very good
reasons; they provide beneficial physical stimulation-including
increased lymphatic and cardiovascular circulation, as well
as the removal of toxins all of which are good for the health
and function of your cells.
