saunaAlthough most people really don’t like it, sweating is actually good for your body.

But thanks to the lifestyles of today, sweating isn’t something that a lot of people do.We go from air conditioned homes to air conditioned vehicles to air conditioned offices and shopping places. But this lack of sweating can cause your body to keep toxins trapped inside.

Toxins enter the body either through the mouth or through the skin.

When you sweat, your body gets out the toxins and can prevent a build up. Sweating opens up your pores to get out the toxins. Not only do you feel better and look better, but your skin will also look younger and healthier.

While normal sweating can help, it can’t really do the level of detox like a sauna can.

That’s because using a sauna causes you to sweat a lot more than you normally would. If you could check what your sweat contains, you’d see that it was made up of toxins – including airborne ones like pesticides that are sprayed in homes and on plants.

In a sauna, your body also works to release toxins that have been stored in the tissues. It basically forces them loose and then eliminates them. Your body will get rid of toxins like uric acid, which is a waste product. If uric acid builds up in the body, it can lead to things like kidney problems. Saunas also rid toxins such as metals, chemicals, household cleaners, and from the medication that you take or put on your skin.

When you use a sauna, your heart rate goes higher – and this is a good thing.

That faster heart rate is what will give you a better blood flow. The increase in blood flow will then turn around and help you get the toxins out of your body faster. Not only that, but there’s a correlation between the temperature of the sauna and the benefit it gives your immune system. When you get a fever, it raises your body temperature to kill off whatever is making you sick. In a sauna, the increased temperature helps your body fight things that can make you sick.

It used to be that if you wanted the detoxification benefit from using a sauna, you had to leave your house to go to one. But today, you can buy a sauna that you can use right in the comfort of your own home – and they’re affordable. You can find both steam and dry heat saunas for home use.

Saunas make you feel better, look better, and sleep better.
