Hi all,

I've just found this forum and thought I'd send a post to help answer some of the infrared sauna questions.

I purchased an infrared sauna about 3 months ago. It is a 'Detox Box' by High Tech Health. I use the sauna generally 2 times a week for about 15-30 minutes a time. I find if I use more frequently I get very fatigued etc.. etc.. (I assume I am detoxing too fast). One of my main reasons initially for using the sauna was to relieve full body joint pain, which it does VERY well whilst I am in the sauna.

Prior to purchasing the sauna I used to use the regular steam sauna down at my local pool. The heat again definitely helped but my research led me to believe the infrared saunas were better for detox.

I am following the detox plan set out in Sherry Roger's 'Detox or Die' book. It is a book I can highly recommend.

As for hiring the saunas, I tested one out at a Beauty Salon. The cost was $30 for half an hour (note that I am in Australia and am referring to Aussie dollars!).

As an aside, I have just tried a magnetic clay bath and am now suffering my symptoms strongly again. I thought I took it easy on the first bath to alleviate the fast detox ..doh!

I am also getting my fillings replaced in a couple of weeks time .. wish me luck!

Happy to answer any other questions about my sauna experiences ...

Good health to everyone ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
