Hi Rocket,

 

For those who can't get to a sauna near their house or are invalid, maybe your idea of a Hot Suit is the ticket? Definitely worth investigating. It makes sense as long as it reaches the critical temperatures and doesn't bring risks of harm by extended use.  But you might get too skinny? lol

 

Cheers

does all of this apply to everyone? even those who live in regions where it can reach 46c(115f) in several months of the year?

or does it only benefit those who live in cold regions?

Hi Hesa,

 

It would indeed be interesting to have comparative data regarding one's phsyiological reaction that releases heat shock proteins based upon local ambient meteorological temperatures as well as the temperature contrast brought about by sauna sessions.

 

However, it seems that there is a heat threshold that triggers a biological reaction, and that below this threshold the manifest effect isn't reached. Beyond this threshold point one gets several benefits from staying a certain duration of time above these key temperatures. Two hours per day can apparently multiply one's growth hormone levels several fold over the course of just one week. It probably does many other things too, and hopefully most of them are positive. Perhaps some are not so good in the long term, but consderable research has been done about saunas and overall the conclusions are primarily postive. What can be said from the latest research is that it definitely changes your health profile for the better, and it therefore isn't pointless.

My friend recently purchased Infrared Sauna Blanket. OP - you might be interested in that.

(I don't know which brand though. But when I google, I find many that talk about far-infrared waves but none of them list the amount of dosage the blanket gives to your body. Shouldn't it be listed in lux or w/cm2 or something along those lines?)

 

Also, isn't near infrared better than far infrared?

Any feedback as to how it's working out for them?

 

I would tend to trust a friend of a LongeCity member above the typical person on Amazon. 

 

If I had the right living conditions I'd buy/build a full sauna, but for now I'd have to use a blanket - which may not be a bad option.
