Hi Rus & Everyone,

I expect I still suffer my symptoms after a sauna as I am placing an extra general stress on my body. I get the same result if I try to do too much physical work during the day. My health is very poor at the moment sometimes just sitting up is too much.

The sauna is absolutely fantastic, I would recommend it to anyone, but caution that it does place additional stresses on the body (heat, sweating, detoxing etc..). My comment to anyone starting out with saunas is to take it slow and steady and listen to your body's responses. If you start to feel 'not right' in the sauna, get out and try again in a few days time. There is no competition to see who can stay in the longest at the highest temperature!

Also, be sure to replenish your body with lots of water, salts and minerals that will inevitably be lost with all that sweating (along with lots of toxins hopefully too). There are some good books available on this subject.
