Guest guest Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 So how long normally to feel the effects of the sauna? Meaning as far as removing metals from your body. Does it take longer than normal DMSA or DMPS? I would think it does, but was curious as to how often one should go, and maybe even if one of you guys has done a hair test since doing a sauna, and how much did the mercury went down? thanks scott tinapachniak <quiltlady@...> wrote: It is correct, you are supposed to shower after a sauna, but NOT a hot one, do cold first to close your pours so that you don't re- absorb stuff you sweated out. I have a FIR sauna, and afterwards I take a cool/cold shower for about 5 minutes, then, once I'm cooled off, I warm up the water a little. Your body should still be warm, so if it takes you longer to soap-up than 5-10 minutes, you can go a little warmer if you need to, but I usually don't.
