IR sauna

[Guest guest]

Hi all

I happened to built an inexpensive IR sauna for myself according to the

instructions given at Dr. Larry 's site.Built a frame,covered it with

blankets and placed two 250 watt IR red lamps in it. Tried it once and will

continue using it. Will inform you on the outcome. Just wished to share and any

advises will be appreciated.

If you are reading this note I have a question for you. if weather is hot and

humid and person is sweating a lot during the day,will person's need for sauna

therapy decrease or does it not make any differance?

Thanks.

Hi Nil,

It's hot here and I sweat during the day, I still do a sauna 1X or

2X/ week. You have to get a sense of how much you can safely

tolerate and not overdo it.

During the summer I may get into the sauna and start sweating right

away whereas during the winter it may take me 20 minutes just to

start breaking a sweat.

Keep in mind your need for fluids to stay hydrated. Also, the more

you sweat the more will be your potassium loss, as the body reaches a

point that it will save sodium at the expense of potassium.

My revised program suggestions are available on my forum, free for

the asking.

All the best,

Jim
