Blue Hand healing & massage

Blue Hand healing & massage Northern European trained PT and healer in Puerto Vallarta. I can provide relief for physical or emotional pain. In my ending is my beginning.

With my Native Inuit blood running in my vaines from my dear Mothers side, I have had this "Gift" what some call healing. I call it love,
I am nothing more than a humble and merge mensenger to spred out love and good energy and i can only give soo much you alow me to give. And then my Mayan star sign is the blue planetary hand, her after will follow a little explanation

Blue Hand is your Conscious Self - who you are and who you are becoming. Blue Hand is a gateway, an opening, a portal from one understanding to another. A clue to the meaning of Blue Hand is found in the meditation, "I am, by thinly veiled design, the threshold to other dimensions. The initatory gateway awaits." Blue Hand is the seventh or last archetype in the cycle of development of primary being. It represents the power found in completion. Blue Hand is seen as a closure, which is really an opening to another level of being. Like the fluidity of moving water, Blue Hand is associated with the process of dance, mudra, and beauty. This movement is a metaphor for the ebb and flow of life. In meditation with Manik, experience the flowing quality that is the beauty of the cosmic dance. Remember this essence and this fluidity at times when your life feels most inflexible or lacking in beauty. Blue Hand represents the 'beauty way', the ability to see intrinsic beauty within yourself and in all things. Living the beauty way requires being in your full beauty and power. From this place, your self-authority naturally flows. This is the position where your ego is aligned with divine will. When you are standing in your full beauty and power, your very presence invites others to be all that they are. To the Maya, Blue Hand represents the deer, the gentle, serenely aware guide who walks in fluid beauty and grace, opening and revealing. The essence of Blue Hand is held in the metaphor of a wave. The wave has many stages, from momentum to crest to completion and merging with the ocean once again. Blue Hand connects you to the greater ocean and reveals the shores of your true identity. If you identify with the struggle of eddies and storms, that is the learning you will draw to you. If you identify with your oneness of spirit, by the law of affinity that is what you will become. The energy of Blue Hand will also help you to manifest spiritual skills - especially those intuitive gifts such as oracular divination. In each incarnation, you bring certain gifts. Each path - from priest and priestess to shaman and dancer to artist and gardener - carries varied tools and skills. You have chosen certain gifts and tools that offer you a way to interact with others and your life process. This may be as simple as calling on your innate wisdom and insight in order to see clearly the gifts and tools that you carry. De la Raza Azul, es el poder de la realización, es el(la) que cura las heridas del cuerpo y del alma. Esencia de evolución y crecimiento en dirección a la su

Remember we are a perfect imperfection in a imperfect world.

Health starts in your mind.

You can go to the gym, eat healthy, do yoga, drink water and take vitamins, but if you don't directly confront the negativity in your thoughts, you will never truly be 'healthy'.

Our health is not measured on scales, by the size of our muscles or by the width of our waist.

True health is measured by the quality of our thoughts and the tranquility of our mind. Health starts in your mind.

Wow thanks Wendy.
Here the latest review on Google.
This post is meant to help others having a idea of what I do and why.
One way that I'm unalike some other therapist's. I'm the Blue Hand, I have a gift that allows me to listen to our body, soul and spirit. Also I don't beat around the bush, I prefer to get to the point, probably my Danish Viking inherent. Also my philosophy is what I should never be the size of our wallet that determine our health.

Love Henrik

What a beautiful day. I really enjoy then other people realize, how profound healing effects our Mother of all Mothers, Mother Earth have, then we respect and honor her.
I have said it before. We don't need any Shamanic Ceremonies with Pe**te, Ayahuasca, Mushrooms or other sacred medicine.
Then we get guidance with the right intenciones, magic happens. Thanks Wendy N McDuffie and Natalie Volan for letting sharing this beautiful place with you.
Sharing is caring. With Love Hugs Henrik

Now what we know, how and frustrations can cause unbalance and even lead to illness. What do you think and will do to our body??
I dare you. Start setting daily goals, which are within reach. Then a goal is reached, it creates happiness, which again is vibration. Then you make so much good vibration at the end, there is No space for low vibration.
I my self use nature to help keeping up the good vibration.

Wow..as a desent of the Vikings, a fearful warrior. It was a honor to be sought after from a direct decent of a Spartans, looking for advice to manage life. That a beauty, life is then you see love in everything.

Though I never really studied to be a life coach. It's have become apparent that more people who reaches out. In reality, some of them just seeking answers to life. Many of them already know the answers, but can comprehend them. As most of us is been taught how to think and react.
Thats then my nonchalant approach to life, out of the "Box" thinking sometimes comes very handy. Helping guiding towards less struggle.

This came up a memory of my personal Facebook from some 3 years ago.

In English below.

Beneficios del temazcal

La Cabaña de Sudor, temazcal o inipi es una terapia poderosa de vinculación con la tierra y nos alimenta el despertar de nuestra memoria ancestral. Pero además del trabajo para nuestro espiriú, este círculo de medicina, nos regala hay muchos beneficios en lo físico

Actualmente se sabe que el temazcal estimula el sistema linfático, ayuda a desechar toxinas, ya que al subir la temperatura arriba de 40 grados centígrados la piel se convierte en un tercer riñón, la alta temperatura a la que nos exponemos dentro de un temazcal propicia que el cuerpo sude, la humedad no permite que el sudor se ev***re, por lo que el sistema de autorregulación del cuerpo (sistema simpático y parasimpático) responde, (homeostasis) se acelera la circulación y sudamos aún más eliminando al máximo toxinas, la piel se pone roja indicando que el calor y frío excesivos están siendo expulsados, logrando el balance que se requiere en el cuerpo, de esta forma se suda más que cuando realizamos cualquier tipo de ejercicio ya que, durante y después del temazcal el metabolismo del cuerpo alcanza un ritmo semejante a correr o nadar durante mucho tiempo.

Además tonifica la piel, actúa depurando las vías respiratorias y el aparato digestivo, tonifica el sistema nervioso, ayuda en problemas óseos, musculares y ginecobstétricos, es un vehículo ideal que nos transporta a un estado de paz y tranquilidad interior aquietando la mente al experimentar el calor del baño y de las propiedades curativas que nos regala la naturaleza a través de las distintas plantas medicinales que en él se utilizan.

El temazcal sobrepasa en beneficio y eficiencia a los baños comunes de v***r, ya que la persona a cargo del temazcal puede aumentar o bajar el calor, ajustando así a las condiciones especificas que el paciente requiera, además el v***r se crea a partir de tés herbarios, yerbas que son elegidas según el padecimiento a tratar. El calor debe ser más alto que la temperatura corporal normal para inducir la transpiración, la humedad alta inhibe la ev***ración del sudor enfriando normalmente al cuerpo, se estima que cada litro de sudor que se pierde en el temazcal es el equivalente al trabajo que realiza el riñón en varios días.

Durante una sesión intensa de temazcalli se pierde entre 2 y 3 kg de peso corporal de los cuales una alta proporción es de agua, aproximadamente en una sesión se pierde 1.500 ml de sudor, a través de éste se aumenta la excreción de productos terminales del metabolismo (toxinas) como acido úrico, creatinina, urea, ácido láctico, cloruro de sodio; también equilibra el PH ácido-alcalino de la sangre y contribuye a la eliminación de metales pesados que son absorbidos en las sociedades modernas; como el Zinc, Mercurio, Cobre, Plomo entre otros. Cuando la intensidad del sudor es baja, la concentración de estas sustancias nocivas es alta.

El agua es el conductor ideal de la electricidad, la electricidad de nuestro cuerpo se manifiesta mejor donde hay agua, si entorpecemos las funciones de la piel, los desechos celulares obstruirán la respiración de ésta dejando una piel reseca y sin energía.

Al utilizar agua fría dentro del temazcal como parte de la terapia, el cuerpo realiza movimiento de volumen sanguíneo, a través del corazón, con esto se da paso a un ejercicio circulatorio bastante enérgico (contraindicado en problemas de cardiopatías graves), esto se conoce por los naturistas como “lavado de sangre”, al limpiar la sangre de impurezas, estimulando las glándulas sudoríparas, sistema circulatorio y mejora de manera natural las deficiencias cardiovasculares. En cincuenta minutos de baño se logra eliminar un litro de sudor equivalente a un kg de toxinas.

El temazcal utilizado médicamente en los padecimientos relacionados con el frío interno ha sido de gran importancia sobre todo en el tratamiento de desórdenes femeninos, provoca calor en los ovarios, trompas de Falopio y útero, es indicado en infertilidad, embarazo, post embarazo, purificación y fluido de la leche materna, y para recobrar la firmeza de la piel.

Hipócrates, padre de la medicina occidental decía: “Dame una fiebre y te curaré cualquier enfermedad”, la hipertermia inducida a través del temazcal es comparable a un estado de fiebre temporal la cual beneficia enormemente, ya que estimula la capacidad defensiva frente a diferentes tipos de infecciones; las altas temperaturas también facilitan la revitalización y reparación celular.

En la actualidad la ciencia sabe que el calor incrementa las funciones de cada órgano y en particular la del sistema inmunológico, de esta forma nos podemos explicar la sabia acción del cuerpo al subir la temperatura (fiebre) ante la presencia de ciertas enfermedades o infecciones. El Sistema Linfático es uno de los responsables de la limpieza y depuración del cuerpo, de gran importancia por su acción depurativa para el cuerpo humano.

El temazcal estimula al sistema glandular, en particular a las glándulas pineal y pituitaria, se les conoce como las glándulas maestras, ya que rigen la actividad glandular de todo el cuerpo, como lo es la tiroides, adrenales, hormonales, sexuales etc.

El v***r que se produce al interior del temazcal cuando se rocía agua sobre las piedras volcánicas al rojo vivo crea una cantidad importante de ozono de carga negativa, que al combinar la acción de sacudir el ramo de hojas aromáticas eliminaran alcaloides y sus esencias combinadas con la energía ionizante producen más ozono, la ciencia ha descubierto importantes usos terapéuticos del ozono, se destaca su acción germicida que al interior del temazcal actúa como potente antibiótico natural.

La presencia elevada de iones negativos ejerce reacciones en el cuerpo propiciando que el aura (patrón bio-estructurante electromagnético) se expanda, manifestándose radiante en todas las funciones del cuerpo incluyendo las del cerebro. El aura es quien dirigió la construcción del cuerpo en que vivimos y quien lo mantiene funcionando, la práctica de la terapia del temazcal permite y propicia que esta inteligencia áurica regenere el cuerpo.

El campo eléctrico recorre todas las células, órganos y todo el sistema nervioso, estimulando todas las funciones fisiológicas y el metabolismo; si el campo eléctrico es demasiado débil, se manifiesta cansancio, desgano y falta de vitalidad. Esta es la causa principal de la fatiga y el entumecimiento que se siente cuando se viaja en automóviles, aviones, tanques, submarinos y trenes. Lo mismo sucede cuando se trabaja en un ambiente con aire acondicionado o calefacción suele dejar a las personas completamente agotadas, aunque no hagan más que estar sentadas tras un escritorio, una persona que trabaja en el campo, las mismas horas con un extenuante esfuerzo físico, no presentan este agotamiento al terminar su labor, la diferencia, la calidad del aire.

Los rayos infrarrojos emitidos por las piedras calientes son de gran utilidad sobre todo en aquellos padecimientos en donde estos rayos han demostrado su eficacia y bondades terapéuticas. Los efectos curativos de los rayos infrarrojos son muy importantes y benéficos en el temazcal, es un tratamiento alternativo del dolor, muy útil en el padecimiento de Artritis reumatoide, la rehabilitación de articulaciones afectadas por esta enfermedad, proporciona gran ayuda a las personas que padecen ciática, reumatismo y en todos los padecimientos en donde se requiera aumentar el riego sanguíneo, disminuye la rigidez de las articulaciones y el dolor, mejora en general la circulación y reduce el stress.

Algunos de los beneficios que proporciona el temazcal:
- Alivia las molestias premenstruales
- Ayuda a bajar de peso
- Ayuda a eliminar toxinas
- Beneficia la circulación sanguínea
- Depura el aparato digestivo
- Desatrofia (sic) los músculos
- Disminuye los problemas óseos
- Filtra las vías respiratorias
- Incita a la introspección y reflexión
- Merma trastornos hepáticos,
- Reduce el tamaño de los quistes en los ovarios,
- Relaja el sistema nervioso disminuyendo el estrés y la angustia,
- Resuelve problemas de irregularidad menstrual,
- Tonifica la piel

El calentamiento al que es sometido el cuerpo durante el baño en la terapia del temazcal, alcanza temperaturas elevadas produciendo una serie de reacciones, entre ellas: estimula la circulación superficial y profunda de la sangre, acelera la frecuencia de los latidos del corazón aumentando su fuerza, además genera la acción de los mecanismos de regulación térmica y activa el metabolismo. Es un método eficaz para estimular todos los órganos internos, ya que al sudar en grandes cantidades, desechamos toxinas acumuladas, se dice, que ayuda en los tratamientos para la obesidad siendo un auxiliar muy efectivo para la perdida de grasa corporal, estimula el metabolismo basal simulando actividad física como si estuviese haciendo ejercicio. Mejora significativamente el funcionamiento de la piel y riñones, ya que estimula el desecho de sustancias tóxicas al abrir y activar los poros de la piel.

Propiedades terapéuticas del temazcal

Sistema reproductivo de la mujer: Es recomendable este baño para sacar fríos o calores malignos del cuerpo. La mayoría de la problemática asociada con el sistema reproductivo de la mujer tiene que ver con la frialdad, el temazcal contribuye calentando los ovarios, trompas de Falopio y el útero, si utilizamos hierbas de naturaleza caliente como Santa María, canela, romero, pirul, poleo, pericón y pachuli entre otras.

En la actualidad existen muchas parejas que logran embarazarse al asistir con regularidad al baño de temazcal.

Las parteras tradicionales lo utilizaban con las mujeres embarazadas como medio preventivo, curativo y para la atención del parto, aprovechando la ocasión al acomodar al bebé para su buen nacimiento, dentro del temazcal la matriz de la mujer embarazada se expande, haciendo mucho más fácil la labor del parto. Tanto en la república mexicana, como en Centroamérica, el baño prehispánico con plantas medicinales era utilizado en estos dos eventos tan importantes en la vida de una mujer. Después del parto se le bañaba varias veces a la madre con hierbas medicinales a fin de que su matriz se contrajera y volviera a su estado original. En esta etapa el baño no es tan caliente como se acostumbra, el temazcalero cuida que el calor no pase los 40 grados centígrados, no solamente la calidez del lugar ayuda en la labor de parto, sino que el bebé nace en un ambiente similar en temperatura, del que viene, y por otro lado la matriz no se expone tanto al frío como en un parto normal, calma dolores, facilita la salida de restos placentarios y toxinas, estimula la producción y conducción de leche.

El baño prehispánico no se recomienda durante el periodo de la menstruación, pero es muy útil y recomendable utilizarlo regularmente ya que es muy útil en el síndrome premenstrual (dolor, irregularidad, depresión, hinchazón).
Se ha tratado a mujeres recientemente y según los informes médicos, los quistes sobre sus ovarios eran más grandes en volumen que su útero, tras una serie de baños en el Temazcal, se comprobó una reducción considerable del quiste. A una serie de baños se le acompaño con infusiones de hierbas medicinales que es tomada por el paciente así como la preparación con hierbas medicinales adecuadas para la infusión con las que se rocían las piedras y son inhaladas por el bañista, sin olvidar la conformación con las hierbas correctas para el ramo con el que se manipulara el aire caliente hacia el paciente.

Desorden inmunológico, sida y cáncer: El calor es un medio para producir la proteína del estrés, esta aparece organizando la actividad molecular, ayudando a través de la regulación, a que puedan darse cuenta, cuando una célula es diferente a las demás, por su estructura o su tamaño; esta reacción la encontramos cuando somos sometidos a agentes quimioterapéuticos, cuando nos encontramos en un estado patológico de inflamación viral, cuando tenemos fiebre, inflamación, etc. Cuando aumenta la temperatura del cuerpo inmediatamente hay una reacción, todas las células, desde una bacteria hasta las células neuronales presentan un aumento en la producción de ciertas moléculas que protegen el daño producido por el calor.

Esto fue observado por los biólogos hace más de 30 años. Los estudios muestran que al estar dentro de una sesión de temazcal, el calor terapéutico estresante, puede ser capaz de generar proteínas con efecto inmunológico, los estudios científicos siguen buscando y tratando de descubrir más sobre el tema. Esto podría ayudar en tratamientos de cáncer y otros desórdenes inmunológicos, es conveniente mencionar que al calentarse las piedras del temazcal emiten energía radiante o radiación térmica (infrarrojos, ultravioleta) la cantidad y calidad depende de la temperatura que alcancen las piedras, el cuerpo humano parcialmente es capaz de absorber las radiaciones emitidas por las piedras calientes.

Efectos en la piel: Tonifica, regenera y purifica la piel. Esta es el órgano más grande del cuerpo y actúa como mecanismo regulador de la temperatura interna del organismo, está dotado con un mecanismo de auto regulación interna en donde aunque se encuentre en un medio mayor de 40 ºC no sobrepasa los 38 ºC (se enfría a través del sudor). La piel es como un tercer riñón, por donde se eliminan las toxinas acumuladas en el cuerpo. Las personas que habitan en medios contaminados, pueden tener los poros tapados, estos son activados por el mecanismo terapéutico del temazcal, por los efectos de la alta temperatura, estimulando la renovación de la piel, porque favorece la descamación de la capa superficial, activando al mismo tiempo la protección ante las infecciones cutáneas a través de la formación del manto ácido. Si aplica jugo de sábila sobre el cuerpo antes de entrar al baño, los resultados son favorables sobre manchas y otros problemas de la piel.
Efectos en el sistema nervioso: Tiene un efecto relajante y estimulante en el organismo, ayuda a tratar el estrés, insomnio, tensión nerviosa, etc. Estimula el sistema hormonal, funciona como una limpieza sanguínea eliminando las toxinas e impurezas a través del sudor, automatizando el sistema nervioso.

Efectos en el aparato respiratorio: Utilizado para tratar problemas como: gripas, bronquitis, enfisemas, asma y sinusitis. Limpia y descongestiona los canales nasales y para nasales al elevarse la temperatura y combinarse el v***r con el aroma de las plantas medicinales, destapando las vías respiratorias. Por efecto del calor se produce la inhalo terapia, con el v***r de agua, el v***r de las flores y hierbas curativas, los aceites desprendidos de estas y depositadas en las piedras durante la ceremonia produce automáticamente la desobstrucción de las vías respiratorias.

Activa también la irrigación de una forma impresionante, 7 veces más que en condiciones normales, también se aumenta el flujo sanguíneo, sumado esto a la expansión de los pulmones los bronquios facilitan la expulsión de las toxinas acumuladas.

Efectos en el sistema circulatorio: Aumenta la circulación sanguínea, moviliza la sangre llegando así a los recónditos lugares del organismo. Facilita la expulsión de toxinas al dilatarse los vasos sanguíneos así, como la eliminación de ácido úrico y colesterol; es auxiliar natural en tratamientos de enfermedades relacionadas con deficiencias circulatorias y cardiovasculares. Por medio de la temperatura alta y la ebullición de agua fresca, se logra un alto grado de movimiento en el sistema circulatorio (lavado de sangre), ayudando a corregir problemas de varices, úlceras varicosas, trombo flebitis, embolia, adormecimientos de manos y pies, presión alta o baja, y otros problemas circulatorios.
Efectos en el sistema muscular: En el baño temazcal primero se calienta la piel poco a poco el calor penetra al tejido celular subcutáneo hasta el músculo, este calor proporciona relajamiento al sistema muscular, coadyuva en el alivio de contracciones musculares (encogimiento de un músculo), rigidez post “enyesamiento”, dolores de espalda, atrofia muscular, dolores de rodillas y tobillos, entre otros, gracias a los efectos de la temperatura y los aceites volátiles de las plantas que se utilizan.

Mejoramiento del sistema inmunológico: El baño prehispánico aumenta la circulación sanguínea y la linfa, la producción de Leucocitos (glóbulos blancos) del cuerpo y descongestiona el sistema linfático. Se ha observado que personas que visitan con regularidad estos baños de sudor y que padecen de enfermedades crónicas o recurrentes, disminuyen sus padecimientos, dándose cuenta de que si se enferman se recuperan fácilmente.

En la actualidad sabemos que inducir el sudor del cuerpo tiene beneficios en diversos tratamientos de enfermedades como pueden ser, las correspondientes al sistema reproductivo de la mujer, las dermatológicas, del hígado, del sistema circulatorio, respiratorio, inmunológico, en problemas de reumas, artritis, gota, así como en problemas agudos, dolores, enfriamientos y congestiones musculares. El baño prehispánico es quizás la técnica curativa más efectiva de este tipo.

En el temazcal se trabaja y están presentes e intervienen los cuatro elementos, la tierra , cuando nos adentramos simbólicamente al útero materno al ingresar al temazcal; el fuego, lo utilizamos para calentar las piedras, (las abuelas), El aire, esta presente siempre a nuestro alrededor y al utilizar el ramo y por último esta el agua, que no por presentarla al final es el menos importante, ésta, transporta la energía por todo nuestro cuerpo, si perdiéramos el 50% de ella, no sobrevivíamos ya que esta es transportada por la sangre y fluidos corporales, medio por el cual circulan los nutrientes a través de nuestro cuerpo.

Existen teorías que están siendo estudiadas en donde mencionan que el agua tiene la capacidad de copiar y memorizar información, al hablarle, rezar u orar delante de ella, o ponerle música se ha descubierto que el agua cambia su frecuencia “vibracional” enormemente, si recordamos nuestros antepasados veneraban, saludaban, oraban, cantaban y ofrecían ofrendas, desde estos tiempos los indígenas ya utilizaban este trato preferencial y respetuoso que ahora se esta descubriendo con el aval científico.

Benefits of the Temazcal

The sweat lodge, temazcal, or inipi is a powerful therapy that connects us with the earth and nourishes the awakening of our ancestral memory. But in addition to working for our spirit, this medicine circle offers us many physical benefits.

It is currently known that the temazcal stimulates the lymphatic system, helping to eliminate toxins. When the temperature rises above 40 degrees Celsius, the skin becomes a third kidney. The high temperature to which we are exposed inside a temazcal causes the body to sweat. The humidity does not allow sweat to ev***rate. Therefore, the body's self-regulation system (sympathetic and parasympathetic systems) responds (homeostasis). The circulation accelerates, and we sweat even more, eliminating as many toxins as possible. The skin turns red, indicating that excessive heat and cold are being expelled, achieving the balance required by the body. This way, we sweat more than when we do any type of exercise, since, during and after the temazcal, the body's metabolism reaches a rate similar to running or swimming for a long time.

It also tones the skin, purifies the respiratory and digestive tract, strengthens the nervous system, and helps with bone, muscle, and gynecological-obstetric problems. It is an ideal vehicle that transports us to a state of inner peace and tranquility, calming the mind as we experience the warmth of the bath and the healing properties that nature bestows upon us through the various medicinal plants used within it.

The temazcal surpasses ordinary steam baths in its benefits and efficiency, as the person in charge of the temazcal can increase or decrease the heat, adjusting it to the specific conditions required by the patient. Furthermore, the steam is created from herbal teas and herbs chosen according to the condition being treated. The heat must be higher than normal body temperature to induce perspiration; high humidity inhibits the ev***ration of sweat, normally cooling the body. It is estimated that each liter of sweat lost in the temazcal is equivalent to the work done by the kidneys in several days.

During an intense temazcalli session, between 2 and 3 kg of body weight is lost, a high proportion of which is water. Approximately 1,500 ml of sweat is lost in one session. This increases the excretion of metabolic end products (toxins) such as uric acid, creatinine, urea, lactic acid, and sodium chloride. It also balances the acid-alkaline pH of the blood and contributes to the elimination of heavy metals absorbed in modern societies, such as zinc, mercury, copper, and lead, among others. When sweat intensity is low, the concentration of these harmful substances is high.

Water is the ideal conductor of electricity. Our body's electricity manifests best where there is water. If we hinder the skin's functions, cellular waste will obstruct its respiration, leaving the skin dry and drained of energy.

By using cold water in the temazcal as part of the therapy, the body moves blood volume through the heart, giving way to a rather vigorous circulatory exercise (contraindicated in serious heart disease). This is known by naturopathic practitioners as "blood cleansing." It cleanses the blood of impurities, stimulates the sweat glands, circulatory system, and naturally improves cardiovascular deficiencies. In fifty minutes of bathing, one liter of sweat, equivalent to one kilogram of toxins, can be eliminated.

The temazcal, used medically for conditions related to internal cold, has been of great importance, especially in the treatment of female disorders. It produces heat in the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus. It is indicated for infertility, pregnancy, post-pregnancy, purification and fluidification of breast milk, and to restore skin firmness.

Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine, said: "Give me a fever and I will cure you of any disease." The hyperthermia induced by the temazcal is comparable to a temporary fever, which is enormously beneficial, as it stimulates the body's defenses against different types of infections. The high temperatures also facilitate cellular revitalization and repair.

Today, science knows that heat increases the functions of every organ, particularly the immune system. This explains why the body raises its temperature (fever) in the presence of certain diseases or infections. The lymphatic system is responsible for cleansing and purifying the body, and is of great importance due to its purifying action on the human body.

The temazcal stimulates the glandular system, particularly the pineal and pituitary glands. They are known as the master glands, as they govern the glandular activity of the entire body, such as the thyroid, adrenal, hormonal, sexual, and other glands.

The steam produced inside the temazcal when water is sprayed on the red-hot volcanic stones creates a significant amount of negatively charged ozone. When combined with the action of shaking the bunch of aromatic leaves, this ozone eliminates alkaloids and their essences, combined with ionizing energy, producing more ozone. Science has discovered important therapeutic uses for ozone, highlighting its germicidal action, which acts as a powerful natural antibiotic inside the temazcal.

The elevated presence of negative ions exerts reactions in the body, causing the aura (electromagnetic biostructuring pattern) to expand, radiating through all bodily functions, including those of the brain. The aura is what directed the construction of the body we live in and keeps it functioning. The practice of temazcal therapy allows and fosters this auric intelligence to regenerate the body.

The electric field travels through all cells, organs, and the entire nervous system, stimulating all physiological functions and metabolism. If the electric field is too weak, tiredness, listlessness, and lack of vitality occur. This is the main cause of the fatigue and numbness felt when traveling in cars, airplanes, tanks, submarines, and trains. The same thing happens when working in an air-conditioned or heated environment, which often leaves people completely exhausted. Even if they do nothing more than sit at a desk, a person who works in the fields for the same number of hours with strenuous physical effort does not experience this exhaustion when they finish their work; the difference is the air quality.

The infrared rays emitted by hot stones are very useful, especially for those conditions where these rays have proven their effectiveness and therapeutic benefits. The healing effects of infrared rays are very important and beneficial in the temazcal. It is an alternative pain treatment, very useful in the case of rheumatoid arthritis, the rehabilitation of joints affected by this disease, providing great help to people suffering from sciatica, rheumatism and all conditions where increased blood flow is required, reducing joint stiffness and pain, improving overall circulation and reducing stress.

Some of the benefits of the temazcal:
- Relieves premenstrual discomfort
- Helps with weight loss
- Helps eliminate toxins
- Improves blood circulation
- Purifies the digestive system
- Reduces muscle atrophy
- Reduces bone problems
- Filters the respiratory tract
- Encourages introspection and reflection
- Reduces liver disorders
- Reduces the size of ovarian cysts
- Relaxes the nervous system, reducing stress and anxiety
- Resolves menstrual irregularities
- Tones the skin

The heating to which the body is subjected during the temazcal bath reaches high temperatures, producing a series of reactions, including: stimulating superficial and deep blood circulation, accelerating the heart rate, increasing its strength, and triggering thermal regulation mechanisms and activating the metabolism. It is an effective method for stimulating all internal organs, as sweating in large quantities eliminates accumulated toxins. It is said to aid in obesity treatments and is a very effective aid for losing body fat. It stimulates the basal metabolism, simulating physical activity as if you were exercising. It significantly improves the functioning of the skin and kidneys, as it stimulates the elimination of toxic substances by opening and activating the skin's pores.

Therapeutic Properties of the Temazcal

Female Reproductive System: This bath is recommended for relieving cold or heat from the body. Most problems associated with the female reproductive system are related to coldness. The temazcal helps warm the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus if we use warming herbs such as Santa Maria, cinnamon, rosemary, pirul, pennyroyal, pericón, and patchouli, among others.

Nowadays, many couples manage to get pregnant by regularly attending the temazcal bath.

Traditional midwives used it with pregnant women as a preventative, curative, and labor-aid tool. Taking advantage of the opportunity to position the baby for a smooth birth, the pregnant woman's womb expands within the temazcal, making labor much easier. In both Mexico and Central America, pre-Hispanic baths with medicinal plants were used for these two important events in a woman's life. After childbirth, the mother was bathed several times with medicinal herbs to help her womb contract and return to its original state. At this stage, the bath is not as hot as usual; the temazcalero ensures that the heat does not exceed 40 degrees Celsius. Not only does the warmth of the place aid labor, but the baby is born in an environment similar in temperature to its parent. The womb is not exposed to the cold as much as during a normal birth. This soothes pain, facilitates the passage of placental debris and toxins, and stimulates milk production and conduction. The pre-Hispanic bath is not recommended during menstruation, but it is very useful and recommended for regular use, as it is very helpful for premenstrual syndrome (pain, irregularity, depression, bloating).
Women have recently been treated, and according to medical reports, the cysts on their ovaries were larger in volume than their uterus. After a series of baths in the Temazcal, a considerable reduction in the cyst was observed. A series of baths was accompanied by herbal infusions, which were taken by the patient, as well as the preparation of appropriate medicinal herbs for the infusion, which were sprinkled on the stones and inhaled by the bather. The correct herbs were used for the bouquet with which the hot air was directed toward the patient.

Immune disorders, AIDS, and cancer: Heat is a means of producing stress proteins. These proteins organize molecular activity, helping to detect when a cell is different from the others, due to its structure or size. We find this reaction when we are subjected to chemotherapy agents, when we are in a pathological state of viral inflammation, when we have fever, inflammation, etc. When body temperature rises, there is an immediate reaction; all cells, from bacteria to neuronal cells, exhibit an increase in the production of certain molecules that protect against heat damage.

This was observed by biologists more than 30 years ago. Studies show that during a temazcal session, the stressful therapeutic heat can generate proteins with immunological effects. Scientific studies continue to seek and try to discover more about this topic. This could help in the treatment of cancer and other immunological disorders. It is worth mentioning that when the temazcal stones are heated, they emit radiant energy or thermal radiation (infrared, ultraviolet). The quantity and quality depend on the temperature reached by the stones. The human body is partially capable of absorbing the radiation emitted by the hot stones.

Effects on the skin: Tones, regenerates, and purifies the skin. This is the largest organ in the body and acts as a regulator of internal temperature. It is endowed with an internal self-regulation mechanism, meaning that even in an environment above 40°C, it does not exceed 38°C (it cools itself through sweat). The skin is like a third kidney, through which accumulated toxins are eliminated. People who live in polluted environments may have clogged pores. These are activated by the therapeutic mechanism of the temazcal, due to the effects of the high temperature, stimulating skin renewal by promoting the desquamation of the superficial layer, while simultaneously activating protection against skin infections through the formation of the acid mantle. Applying aloe vera juice to your body before entering the bath has favorable results on blemishes and other skin problems. Effects on the nervous system: It has a relaxing and stimulating effect on the body and helps treat stress, insomnia, nervous tension, etc. It stimulates the hormonal system and acts as a blood purifier, eliminating toxins and impurities through sweat and automating the nervous system.

Effects on the respiratory system: Used to treat problems such as flu, bronchitis, emphysema, asthma, and sinusitis. It cleanses and decongests the nasal and paranasal passages by raising the temperature and combining the steam with the aroma of medicinal plants, unclogging the airways. The heat produces inhalation therapy, using water v***r, the steam from flowers and healing herbs, and the oils released from these and deposited on the stones during the ceremony, which automatically unclog the airways.

It also activates irrigation impressively, seven times more than under normal conditions. It also increases blood flow. This, in addition to expanding the lungs, facilitates the expulsion of accumulated toxins.

Effects on the circulatory system: It increases blood circulation, mobilizing blood to reach the most remote parts of the body. It facilitates the expulsion of toxins by dilating blood vessels, as well as the elimination of uric acid and cholesterol. It is a natural aid in the treatment of diseases related to circulatory and cardiovascular deficiencies. Through the high temperature and boiling of fresh water, a high degree of movement is achieved in the circulatory system (blood cleansing), helping to correct varicose veins, varicose ulcers, thrombophlebitis, embolism, numbness in the hands and feet, high or low blood pressure, and other circulatory problems. Effects on the muscular system: In the temazcal bath, the skin is first heated, and little by little, the heat penetrates the subcutaneous cellular tissue to the muscle. This heat provides relaxation to the muscular system, helping to relieve muscle contractions (muscle shrinkage), post-casting stiffness, back pain, muscle atrophy, knee and ankle pain, among others, thanks to the effects of temperature and the volatile oils of the plants used.

Improved immune system: The pre-Hispanic bath increases blood and lymph circulation, the production of leukocytes (white blood cells), and decongests the lymphatic system. It has been observed that people who regularly visit these sweat baths and suffer from chronic or recurring illnesses experience a reduction in their ailments, realizing that if they do become ill, they recover more easily.

Today, we know that inducing sweating has benefits in various treatments for illnesses such as those affecting the female reproductive system, dermatological conditions, liver, circulatory, respiratory, and immune systems, rheumatism, arthritis, gout, as well as acute conditions such as pain, chills, and muscle congestion. The pre-Hispanic bath is perhaps the most effective healing technique of its kind.

The four elements are present and involved in the temazcal: the earth, when we symbolically enter the maternal womb upon entering the temazcal; Fire, we use it to heat the stones (the grandmothers). Air is always present around us, and when we use the bouquet. And finally, there is water, which, despite being presented last, is not the least important. It transports energy throughout our body. If we lost 50% of it, we would not survive, since it is transported by the blood and bodily fluids, the medium through which nutrients circulate through our body.

There are theories being studied that mention that water has the ability to copy and memorize information. When we speak to it, pray in front of it, or play music to it, it has been discovered that water changes its "vibrational" frequency enormously. If we remember our ancestors worshipped, greeted, prayed, sang, and offered offerings, since those times, indigenous people already used this preferential and respectful treatment, which is now being discovered with scientific backing.
