Hi, I’m Monica Berry, thanks for stopping by GarageSauna.com. If you have questions about garage sauna ideas or assembling, setting up or using sauna kits – I can help you get answers.
How I Got Interested in Garage Sauna Kits:
I have always been interested in finding ways to get healthier naturally, whether it’s through food, fitness, sunlight, better sleep, etc.. Ideally, I look for strategies that are cost effective, where I can receive several health benefits for the money spent. Plus, I want to do things that I enjoy. Otherwise, why do them, right?
A few years ago, I started researching effective ways to release toxins from the body. One way to do this is by stimulating the lymphatic system through methods like dry brushing or using vibration platforms.
Then, I started hearing a lot about saunas and using heat to produce sweat and release toxins that way. I had used saunas in the past but never thought of them as beneficial beyond relaxation. But apparently they have lots of health benefits…
Besides getting rid of toxins through sweating, the National Library of Medicine states that dry sauna bathing helps reduce reactive oxygenated species, oxidative stress and inflammation pathways. In addition, it increases nitric oxide bioavailability, insulin sensitivity.
Furthermore, heat stress may induce adaptive hormesis mechanisms (similar to the beneficial effects of exercise). However, more studies need to be done to support claims of sauna use for weight loss, anti-aging, increased metabolism and skin rejuvenation.
Anyway, let me know if you have questions about garage sauna kits. I’m happy to help!
