The best way to get rid of heavy metals and pesticide residues? The infrared saunas. It has been known for decades that sweating is a wonderful way to get rid of stored chemicals, including heavy metals. In fact, sauna is one of the detoxification procedures used in the environmental units in Dallas (Dr. William Rea) and North Charleston (Dr. Allan Lieberman) where the sickest of folks go to heal. But many people, myself included, never could tolerate a sauna. We felt weak, sick, fast heart rate, faint, dizzy, headachy, or just miserable. Thanks to improved technology, the infrared sauna is tolerated much better, because it uses a heat energy that penetrates the tissues better, allowing an overall lower temperature to be used.

  Detoxification and Far Infrared Sauna Therapy

  Far infrared sauna therapy has become the treatment protocol of choice for many doctors detoxification programs. The analysis of far infrared sauna produced sweat shows that is made up of 80 to 85% water, the remaining 15 to 20% contains sodium, other trace minerals, fat soluble toxins, sulphuric acid, uric acid, ammonia, cholesterol and heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and mercury ( This is up to 6 times the amount of toxins and heavy metals found in traditional sweat) . These toxins are most concentrated just under the skin in the subcutaneous layer of the body and are associated with numerous health problems. A simple way to increase sweat production is to exercise until you break into a sweat, or you can use far infrared sauna therapy (FIRT). Far infrared sauna therapy is a far more effective method of removing these toxins because its effect is concentrated on the subcutaneous tissue layer. It is an easy and safe method of increasing the subcutaneous and core temperature of the body, which will cause you to sweat and to detoxify the body.

  By its direct heating effects on the body, far infrared sauna therapy mobilizes toxins from our fat cells where they are stored, increases circulation, and thus aids in elimination of these toxins through perspiration. 30-50% of the population does not adequately perspire, not effectively mobilizing and eliminating the toxins in their bodies which they are exposed to each day. Far infrared sauna therapy improves functioning of the temperature regulating parts of our brains. This increases perspiration, and removes perspiration interfering products to further stimulate excretion of toxins from our body.

   Implementing the use of Far infrared sauna therapy into your life style has many benefits and can help you to become much healthier. FIRT increases your metabolic rate enough to produce a sweat, which will detoxify and can also help you lose weight, it can increase your immune function, reduce your stress levels, improve cardiovascular function, and help alleviate pain. It is important that you drink more water when using FIRT to detoxify because the water is needed to help you to produce more sweat and you need to replace the water lost through sweating. A well hydrated body is essential for optimal physiological function and critical when using a far infrared sauna. Far infrared sauna is very safe and easy to use, while being highly effective in improving your health and preventing disease.

  Scientific analysis shows infrared heat induced sweat contains 5-6 times more toxins, fat and impurities than normal sweat. Relax in a Far North Wellness infrared sauna and enjoy its unsurpassed ability to eliminate stored waste (metabolic wastes, environmental toxins, city pollution, fat, cholesterol, heavy metals, alcohol, nicotine - source: Zane R. Gard, MD & Erma J. Brown, BSN, PhN TLfDP, October 1992). One U.S. study has indicated that people using a conventional sauna were eliminating 95-97% water in their sweat. Those using an infra-red sauna, however, were found to be eliminating only 80-85% water, while the remaining 15-20% was mostly composed of undesirable elements such as sodium, fat soluble toxins, sulfuric acid, uric acid, toxic heavy metals, ammonia, and cholesterol.
