The Therapeutic Benefits of the SeaMax Far Infrared Sauna: Fibromyalgia Treatment

Fibromyalgia syndrome(FMS) is a widespread musculoskeletal pain and fatigue disorder for which the cause is still unknown. Fibromyalgia’s symptoms include pain in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons--the fibrous tissues in the body. Medical estimates show that over 3 million people are afflicted with this syndrome in the United States alone. Most patients with FMS say that they ache all over. Their muscles may feel like they have been pulled or overworked. Sometimes the muscles twitch and at other times they burn. More women than men are afflicted with fibromyalgia, but it shows up in people of all ages.

The far infrared sauna has been very beneficial in the treatment of FMS and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). A number of doctors now believe that the "toxic load" of these patients is very high and their detoxification pathways are often compromised. When one is able to reduce the toxins and heavy metals in those with FMS and CFS, his or her symptoms often greatly improve. A number of people are also suffering unknowingly from mercury poisoning or from other heavy metals such as lead or aluminum. The infrared sauna has been invaluable in accelerating the removal of these toxic metals. By raising the core temperature and creating a 'hyperthermic' effect the infrared sauna also improves a number of parameters in the immune system.

Our sauna will not only aid the liver and kidneys by taking the full burden of detoxification off of them, in some cases it is the only way to detoxify poisons stored in fats. Our infrared thermal system deeply penetrates the skin to "shake loose" stored toxins, which are then deposited into the lymph fluid for removal. As the core of the body heats up, the blood is pumped out to the surface to be cooled. Sweat is also produced from the lymph fluid to aid cooling, expelling the toxins through the pores. Showering after the sauna session ensures the toxins are washed away.

Far infrared therapeutic sauna provides you with an opportunity for maximum detoxification, and is recognized by health experts worldwide as perhaps the only effective way of removing both chemical and heavy metal toxins from the body.
