Ik zal eens gaan kijken, ook op Marktplaats. Wie weet!

Bedankt!

Gr. Elly.

Hoi Robyne,

Op welke temperatuur stel jij je FI-sauna in?

Groet, Arles

[Robyne]

Geen idee welke temperatuur. Zitten vijf standen op, zet hem op de hoogste?

[Arles]

Ik heb zo'n slaapzakmodel waarbij je de temperatuur zelf moet instellen. Dat model bevalt me niet zo erg: alsof je tussen twee elektrische dekens ligt

[Troptard]

Geen idee welke temperatuur. Zitten vijf standen op, zet hem op de hoogste?

Oei ! Opletten robyne,zo een sauna is als de was doen,niet hoger dan 60 graden zou ik zeggen of je verandert in een dwerg

[Robyne]

Mijn BMI schoot de laatste tijd wel omhoog Misschien niet zwaarder geworden, maar gewoon gekrompen...

Your body consists of over 99 percent water molecules, but the water in your cells is not regular water, but highly structured water with special properties
There is a fourth phase of water, not H2O but H3O2, and can be called living water. It’s more viscous, dense, and alkaline than regular water; has a negative charge, and can hold energy, much like a battery, and deliver energy too
The key ingredient to create this highly structured water is light, i.e. electromagnetic energy, whether in the form of visible light, or infrared wavelengths, which we’re surrounded by all the time
One reason why infrared saunas make you feel so good is because your body’s cells are deeply penetrated by infrared energy, which builds and stores structured water. The same goes for light therapy, spending time in the sun, and laser therapy.

Abstract

Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb were measured by atomic absorption spectrometry in sweat samples obtained by the arm-bag technique from 48 healthy adult subjects (33 ♂, 15 ♀ ) during sauna bathing (15 min at 93 °C, dry heat). The men sweated more profusely than the women (volume, in milliliters, of sweat collected: mean, SD, and range: 23 ± 12 (3-55) and 7 ± 3 (2-13), respectively. The concentrations, in µg/liter, (mean, SD, and range) of trace metals in sweat of men and women, respectively, were: nickel, 52 ± 36 (7-180) and 131 ± 65 (39-270); copper, 550 ± 350 (30-1440) and 1480 ± 610 (590-2280); zinc, 500 ± 480 (130-1460) and 1250 ± 770 (530-2620); and lead, 51 ± 42 (8-184) and 118 ± 72 (49-283). In sweat samples from 11 women on oral contraceptives, concentrations of Ni, Cu, Zn, and Pb did not differ significantly from the values in the 15 control women. Sweating is a demonstrably significant route for excretion of trace metals, and sweating may play a role in trace-metal homeostasis. Essential trace metals could conceivably be depleted during prolonged exposure to heat; conversely, sauna bathing might provide a therapeutic method to increase elimination of toxic trace metals.

Abstract

We have reported that repeated sauna therapy improves impaired vascular endothelial function in a patient with coronary risk factors. We hypothesized that sauna therapy decreases urinary 8-epi-prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) levels as a marker of oxidative stress and conducted a randomized, controlled study. Twenty-eight patients with at least one coronary risk factor were divided into a sauna group (n = 14) and non-sauna group (n = 14). Sauna therapy was performed with a 60 degrees C far infrared-ray dry sauna for 15 minutes and then bed rest with a blanket for 30 minutes once a day for two weeks. Systolic blood pressure and increased urinary 8-epi-PGF(2alpha) levels in the sauna group were significantly lower than those in the non-sauna group at two weeks after admission (110 +/- 15 mmHg vs 122 +/- 13 mmHg, P < 0.05, 230 +/- 67 pg/mg x creatinine vs 380 +/- 101 pg/mg x creatinine, P < 0.0001, respectively). These results suggest that repeated sauna therapy may protect against oxidative stress, which leads to the prevention of atherosclerosis.

Deze naturopaat zegt dat antibiotica-infusen goed gecombineerd worden met een sauna-bad voor en na de infusen zetten omdat de aderen bijv. door een fotonapparaat beter naar boven komen en meer uitzetten.
Maar natuurlijk ook een vorm van detox: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qUKVx8gPMw

Hij noemt een sauna, maar bedoelt kennelijk een fotonapparaat.
Die verwarring is niet geheel uit de lucht gegrepen want fotonentherapie is ook op basis van infrarood en Far Infraredsauna's dus ook.

Trouwens, als je je wil laten testen op lyme met antistoffentesten, dan zegt men dat een warme douche een half uur voor de bloedafname helpt bij het stimuleren van de antistoffen viewtopic.php?f=4&t=6623

Een saunabeurtje doet dit uiteraard ook.
