Best Near Infra-Red Sauna! I recommend to all my patients!
Our first corona-related post reached many people and, unfortunately, also created some confusion. So, we took it down but wanted to make a follow-up clarification.
In the original post, we quoted a doctor stating that breathing deeply in a hot sauna will kill a high percentage of any virus that happens to be invading the upper respiratory system.
The assertion that breathing in hot air in a hot-air-temp sauna directly kills internal viruses is not supported in the literature, to our knowledge. But indirectly, hyperthermic therapy does appear to play an essential role in immune response against infectious disease. The sauna heat causes the HSP-related immune activation in the body’s cells, and this activation response is what reduces viral load and initiates repairs in the body.
We posted this to draw attention to the relevant and effective role sauna plays in using heat to activate the body’s immune response. So to clarify, breathing in hot air does not directly kill viruses in the body. Any external air breathed in is heated or cooled immediately to match body temperature, but indirectly, using sauna everyday may very well be your best bet to keep your immune functioning (and general health!) optimal.
