Karen I want to wish you well for your amalgam removal appointment. I'll be doing the same next month.

I have never tried infrared sauna -- but the integrated holistic practice where my dentist is actually offers them. They offer hyperbaric oxygen treatments and oxygen/ozone sauna too.

What I have tried is Oxygen/Ozone Sauna. I did about 6 treatments overall. I honestly don't know whether it helped or not. Surely the sweating did me good. I had so many other health issues going on at the time. I noticed that it really cleared my sinuses and I felt more mental clarity. When the sauna was finished, the towels that I used during the sauna had black streaks. The sauna guy says everyone gets that -- it's the toxins being excreted.

I still had metal in my mouth -- so maybe that's why I didn't otherwise notice a huge difference.

I know a woman who recently had her amalgams removed and also saw a holistic M.D. for detox and she is almost well now. She did "Poor Woman's Saunas." She got in her car (she lives in Florida) with a huge bottle of water and just sat there and let herself sweat. LOL!!! I think I might try that.
