saunas: must read before buying, beneficial afterward, too!!!
Hi, all!
Many have been sold on the idea one needs to do some kind of sauna to detox, especially if they have MCS [chemical sensitivities]
As far as I can tell much of the buzz regarding sauna, particularly far-infrared sauna, originates with Dr. Sherry Rodgers, an MD who has been struggling for years to mange her own MCS. Careful reading of all her books clearly indicates that the saunas have NEVER cured her, just helped her to limp along and function. Her methods are complicated and expensive, therefore utterly inaccessible to many with MCS, myself included.
Some have had good experiences with sauna of various sorts, others have had very bad ones. A close friend of mine with MCS spent a small fortune for a state of the art IFR sauna and CAN NOT TOLERATE IT ALL ALL!!!! Of course, there was NO recourse and NO refund of the thousands of $$$ she spent on it.
So, WHY would some seem to benefit and others have setbacks using the SAME therapy for the SAME diagnosis???
My suggestion is that it depends upon one's alkali mineral reserves. Sufficient reserves=good sauna experience. Insufficient reserves=poor sauna experience.
Another suggestion, based upon my own experience over the last 3-4 years, is that replacing one's alkaline reserves inexpensively and easily by using the Moreless alkalizing drink and dietary advice along with the alkalizing baths he suggests is FAR MORE EFFECTIVE than ANY sauna of ANY type. It is also more time and cost efficient.
Please at least add these things to your own protocol if already saunaing. Otherwise, sooner rather than later you will run down your alkaline reserves and cause yourself a setback.
If you have not yet bought a sauna. PLEASE check this out BEFORE spending your hard-earned dollars and never-to-be-replaced time on one.
You will likely find, as I did, that saunas are NOT needed to recover. And if you wish to indulge in one, your experience will be more likely to be a good one if the above info is incorporated into your health routines FIRST.
Keep seeking, applying, sharing accurate knowledge in order to
Keep seeking abundant life and joy!!!
NEVER EVER GIVE UP!!!!
