OVERHEATING THERAPY: SAUNA
A sauna, or Finnish steam bath, is another excellent way to benefit from overheating therapy. In addition to an artificially induced fever, which a prolonged steam bath always accomplishes, the sauna bath is specifically conducive to profuse therapeutic sweating.
The skin is our largest eliminative organ - "the third kidney." It is generally considered that the skin should eliminate 30 percent of the body wastes by way of perspiration. Due to lack of physical work and an overly sedentary life, the skin of most people today has degenerated as an eliminative organ, since it is hardly ever subjected to sweating. If health is to be restored, it is of vital importance that the eliminative activity of the skin is revitalized. Taking sauna or steam baths regularly, once or twice a week will help to restore and revitalize the cleansing activity of the skin.
The therapeutic property of the sauna is attributed to the following facts:
• Overheating stimulates and speeds up the metabolic processes and inhibits the growth of virus and bacteria.
• All the vital organs and glands are stimulated to increased activity.
• The body's healing forces are aided and assisted, and healing is accelerated.
• The eliminative, detoxifying and cleansing capacity of the skin is dramatically increased by the profuse sweating.
