Infarred Saunas and detoxification

Well many of you have heard about saunas.  There is a difference and I would like to share some of that with you.  First of all steam saunas and high heat saunas get the body to sweat almost instantly by creating heat on the outside.  They are a much higher heat which can be harmful to the body and should not be used longer than 20 minutes.  These saunas are typically 180 degrees. Infrared saunas are a much lower heat that penetrates the body 1 1/2 - 3 inches deep and stimulates the lymphatic system, and the muscles and joints to release toxins.  These toxins will release through sweat but its not coming from an exterior sweat.  It's being released from further in the body, so as you sweat, you need to continually wipe the sweat off of your body before the toxins go back into the open pours. Types of toxins that are released are, mercury, lead, car emissions, tobacco, mold, and other toxins that we come across daily without even knowing it. You can reach a good detoxifying sweat at 120 degrees.  Some of us keep our infrared saunas between 110-140 degrees.  You can be in an infrared sauna for 30 minutes and some doctors are even recomending them for patients with issues like weight loss,  lowering cholesterol, blood pressure, gout, etc.
