Hey Friends-
For those of us who can't make it to a sauna, or have funds to buy one, or don't have a bath tub; I was thinking of those silly sweat suits. I really need to sweat and just don't especially in winter. I hate the fact that they are plastic or vinyl or whatever, but I need to be getting some of the toxins out. Any thoughts? Or experience? scool

I have the idea most of the saunas folks are using are dry heat, not moisture. Hot wet air can impede breathing and you won't be able to sweat with saturated humid air anyway.

I think, for a comparatively cheap dry heat experience would be get a small space heater, close it and yourself in a smallish room, set the heater to 1500 watts and let it rip while you sit in there with a glass of ice water. Make sure it's a safety coded heater in a safe outlet with no power cords attached, and turn it off and unplug it when you're done.

I would also keep a timer going, and a room thermometer the monitor conditions so you don't get overwhelmed and fall asleep.

I can sweat a ton in the bath tub. It is soooo weird that i sweat now in a tub way more then i ever did playing hockey etc and im not even moving. It made me curious as to how much my usual is 2 pounds loss and the most i measured was almost 4 pounds(before and after the bath). I have almost fallen asleep sometimes i can barely keep my eyes open it totally wears me out some days but i feel so much better after its become routine. I just recently ordered a sauna with that being said.

@ julymorning- Thanks that is a great idea! I will try that.

@ Krimpet- Yeah, interesting huh? And thanks for the link! The only issue I foresee, at least for myself, is you kinda have to exercise to get the sweat going. There is no way I am in any shape to exercise. Are you? But maybe I could do the above ^^^ with the space heater and wear the "space suit"! Ah-ha!! idea
