Far Infrared Sauna (FIRS) - ‘Detox Box'

Contrary to popular belief, we don't get rid of all of our daily toxins. Toxins come from the environment, everyday household items, food and drink. Poisonous chemicals come from many sources - such as pollution, mercury (tooth fillings), lead (in paint and exhaust fumes), pesticides, herbicides, plastics, cleaning products, etc. Some toxins mimic hormones and have been linked with hormone related diseases such as infertility and breast cancer.

When the body lacks sufficient nutrients and substances to detoxify the daily load, the fat soluble toxins are stored in the fat cells and leach out into the body. Toxins are also stored in the liver and just remain there, because the liver can't detoxify them. As a result, toxins accumulate unnoticed until one day (years later), we suddenly awaken with symptoms and disease. The only way the body gets rid of stored chemicals is in the breath, stool, urine or sweat.

It is possible to reduce the toxic build-up by sweating out the toxins using a unique process called the ‘Detox Box'. A Mayo Clinic study confirms that sweat, using the infrared sauna, is the most effective way to eliminate toxins, and is normally safe even for those with heart conditions. This specially designed unit reduces the overall burden of toxicity in the body, liberating the toxins stored up in the fat cells and in the liver.

The heat from the Far Infrared Sauna is different from the commercial sauna. Its rays are the healing, safe rays of the sun's spectrum - the same heat responsible for energy production in plant life. It is the same rays used to warm premature infants in nurseries. These rays lower lactic acid (often the cause of painful muscles), stimulate the endorphins of the brain, and kill bacteria and parasites. More importantly, these rays penetrate tissues, detoxify the cells, stop swelling, improve lymphatic flow and blood circulation, and attract calcium to cell membranes where it is needed for healing.

This treatment is suitable for basically healthy people and those who wish to address toxicities. It involves using the sauna with replenishment nutrients before going in, followed by a detox cocktail upon coming out, and daily nutrients around twelve hours later. After two or three treatments the difference in health and well-being can really be felt. When combined with a clean diet and reducing environmental toxins, it will help any difficult health condition that may be related to toxins.
