I'm trying out a new infrared sauna place tonight and the woman on the phone told me that two of their clients (a married couple with Lyme) said their LLMD told them not to exceed 135 degrees and only stay in 20 minutes.

I knew about the 20 minutes part. I never do more than that, but what about the temp? Does anyone know what it should be for sure?

An Infrared sauna will loosen toxins inside you but unless your Glutithione system and Liver are working well they will just recycle inside you causing damage.
When I didn't know any better I bout a nice FIR sauna and used it , it brought on the worst anxiety I ever experienced.

The best thing to do is support your liver and glutithione system.

I take glutathione and milk thistle - drink plenty of water etc. I feel like the sauna helps.

Update: I went to the sauna last night. Apparently, they use a combo of near and far infrared sauna. I sat in there for 20 minutes. It never got too hot, but I did sweat a little. I felt pretty good after, a weird mix of tired and energy. In the morning I work up feeling dizzy. My neck is really tight and my scalp feels a bit tingly like the circulation is returning. I drank a big glass of water with a pinch of sea salt thinking I must be dehydrated. My ears also feel a little plugged. Very strange results in the morning. I've done FIS about 6 times now and I never felt dizzy in the morning. I always felt good.

Anyone have any thoughts about the dizziness?

bobke,

Is cellular precursors something you're doing? If yes, have you noticed anything?

bobke, this sounds terrifying and complicated. I have a deep fear of herxing and I tend to herx very hard. Can you tell me what this protocol was like for you?
