Infrared saunas mimic the same infrared frequencies emitted by the sun, and the tissues in the human body absorb these waves in a process called “resonant absorption” (when the frequency of the water in the body cells match the frequency of the infrared waves). Permeating the dermis up to 4mm deep, warming occurs in the heart of the muscle tissue thus causing significant sweating, up to three times higher than traditional saunas. In an infrared sauna, the body is warmed directly by radiant heat without increasing the ambient temperature. The results are impressive in terms of pain management! So I invested in an infrared home sauna and I do sessions regularly. In the USA, some rheumatology departments offer infrared treatment sessions where mini saunas for hands or feet are made available to people suffering from joint diseases. I discovered infrared saunas a few years ago in a hospital environment. *Subscribe for a 3 or 6-month plan and get your first month of coaching 100% free with code WEIGHTLOSS2018! -2- Infrared Heat Therapy This is one of 4 phases in my LeBootCamp weight loss & wellness program. Personally: I follow my Booster Phase 75% of the time. If you are a BootCamper, you know all about my famous clean-eating Booster Phase which clients confirm has amazing benefits for pain management. We also avoid rich sauces, and highly processed products. Parmesan would be acceptable but not Camembert) because the more refined and aged the product, the less lactose celery (unexpected, I know, but celery is vulnerable to a kind of mold called mycotoxins), mushrooms, and yeast. You will notice even more significant progress following this.įinally, remove foods which are known to be inflammatory, such as dairy products from young cows (i.e. The second step is to reduce foods that have a high glycemic impact: white bread, white pasta, white rice, fast-food and processed dishes that contain hidden sugars, etc. You should already feel some progress with these changes. The first step is therefore to eliminate all added sugar: white sugar, cakes (yes, this includes your morning croissant), cookies, candy, and sweet beverages like fruit juice and soda, energy drinks, and alcohol. Sugar, in all its forms, contributes to the inflammation often related to joint problems. I am not a doctor, I am only sharing my experiences. None of my experiences resulted in an overnight miracle, and of course, always consult your doctor. IMPORTANT NOTE: WHAT WORKS FOR ME WILL NOT NECESSARILY WORK FOR YOU, and you really have to take the time to do things right and be patient with the process. So, I’ve decided to share with you everything that I’ve tried, my reviews and results.Because I have truly tried everything! Magic techniques and potions, manipulations by chiropractors and osteopaths, various types of splints, clay packs, essential oils, serious surgery, hot and cold treatments, sound therapy, meditation, etc. “But how do you do it with these conditions?” they want to know. My followers are always asking me questions on this subject – especially after returning from my Mount Elbrus climb. It’s certainly a miracle – but a miracle triggered by good choices! Thankfully, today, I hardly suffer anymore. I have memories of unbearable pain on my wrists (I could not even open doors with round handles, far less so do exercises like push-ups) ankles (hello splints for years) and in my lower back (my sacrum is welded to lumbar 4 and 5). I was born with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, that is to say, I was already suffering from painful rheumatism at a very young age. There is truly no “right age” for pain… but there are solutions! And even if neither of those describe you, there are proactive lifestyle practices for all of us, to keep us in healthy shape to begin with so that we don’t suffer from joint pain later on. Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and other inflammatory joint conditions do not just affect the elderly! I often hear people say, “oh, I’m only 30, I’m not there yet.” My advice? Be proactive, and don’t wait until you are 80 to deal with pain in your back, knees, wrists or ankles! Some people have joint problems from a young age, others may have had accidents or surgeries that cause pain which prevents them from functioning at their optimum.
