Infrared Sauna
"The Far Infrared sauna is the safest, most efficacious and economical way of eliminating stored toxins, making it a household necessity. I'm convinced that the Far Infrared sauna is something that everyone should do to restore health. The Far Infrared sauna is far safer and more tolerable than a conventional sauna because it uses a heat energy that penetrates tissues, triggering mobilization of chemicals from fat storage, directly into the sweat."
Sherry A. Rogers, M.D. Northeast Center for Environmental Medicine
Infrared saunas, specifically, are used for weight loss and detoxification. Infrared, a type of light, is used to heat objects in the sauna instead of air. One’s respiratory system is not exposed to high heat as in conventional sauna.
These saunas, based on infrared technology, are more effective as heat
reaches deeper in the skin unlike conventional saunas. Deep heat
penetration allows removal of toxins, alcohol, nicotine and metals. It
helps in curing chronic fatigue; improves circulation; raises growth
hormones level; and reduces cellulite.
Electric light infrared saunas are very helpful for patients suffering
from chronic pain. They can also be helpful for cancer patients, since
they raise oxygenation and remove radioactive residues.
This sauna can also be used for patients suffering from varicose veins,
metal implants, hypertension and diabetes where conventional saunas do
not help.

Rejuvenate - a
three-week detoxification program
This intensive three-week detoxification program is designed to rid your
body of years’ worth of accumulated toxins. An impaired ability to
neutralize and eliminate toxins may contribute to illnesses like
allergies, chemical sensitivities, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue;
digestive problems such as irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory
bowel disease; hormonal issues such as PMS and menopausal symptoms; or
skin conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis. Ideal for people who
are looking to turn over a new leaf and create a healthy lifestyle, this
program can help you overcome food cravings and addictions as well as
help you achieve a healthy weight.
Detoxification is often chosen by couples who want to start a family.
Beneficial for both men and women, it helps ensure that parents are in
optimal health prior to conceiving. Intensive detoxification, for
example, has been shown to clear toxins from breast tissue, resulting in
cleaner, healthier breast milk for your child.
