Any Sized Sauna For Today's Detoxification
Some 4 Person Sauna Infrared Quick Facts:
1. The human body emits and absorbs infrared at the 9.36 micron wavelength which is FAR infrared, not near or middle range. Look for a 3 person infrared sauna in this range.
2. Rod type infrared heaters run at 400 to 600 degrees F and have a low micron output in the range of 3.5 microns (near or middle infrared). Looking for a better quality 4 person infrared sauna? Don't go with rods.
3. The relationship between temperature and wavelength is inverse. The higher the surface temperature of the heater, the lower the micron wavelength.
A Native American Treatment for Colds
"Most viruses are very heat sensitive, so raising the body temperature is very antiviral."
In the late 19th century, the explorer, George Catlin observed that some Indians had developed their own form of heat treatment against what Mr. Catlin referred to as "influenza" which may have been the common cold. "The Indian", Mr. Catlin wrote, "attached by the well-known symptoms of influenza, with a knowledge of the several days or weeks of distress that were to follow if he neglects it, dismounts from horse, even if he is on a hunting or war excursion, and wrapping his buffalo robe around him in some hidden and secret spot, takes but an hour or two to exert it, and resumes his journey."
Having violently whipped his arms around his sides a while . . . his heavy and warm buffalo robes applied tightly around him covering his head and feet . . . he lies straight with his face to the ground, his nostrils and mouth covered by the palm of his hand, into which he breathes.
By a few minutes of this respiration, the confined air within his shell, like a vapor bath extracts the most profuse perspiration from his whole system, and in an hour or two he is on his horse and free from further apprehensions of his commencing troubles."
Mr. Catlin went on to say that, for the past 30 years, he has used a similar treatment to avert influenza.
Yes, as you can see, use of heat to combat viral infections is not a new idea. It's been observed that people with viral infections have an abnormally low temperature. Whether the virus brings temperatures down or whether people are more prone to viral infections when their temperatures are low has not been determined. But when temperatures are raised, viruses and infections leave.
Dr. Douglas Lewis, N.D., instructor at the Bastyr University, Kenmore, Washington observes his patients with viral pneumonia not improving until each are immersed in an immersion tank for up to an hour in very warm water. Usually within 48 hours they are significantly better even after a single hyperthermia treatment.
Makes for some interesting reflection in view of cold and flu season approaching. Or, did it ever leave us?
