Fibromyalgia - Natural Pain Relief

Fibromyalgia - a complicated phrase referring to the outer layer of the muscles being affected by painful inflammation of the white fibrous tissue of the body.

Fibromyalgia - I know it's painful even to think about cardiovascular training, but research points to low-impact exercises such as brisk walking, biking, swimming, or water aerobics with stretching techniques as being very helpful for inflamed muscle sheaths affected by Fibromyalgia.

While some benefit from ice therapy, others have found tremendous relief with dry, healthful infrared sauna therapy.  Yes, Fibromyalgia can be aided to improve with proper diet, exercise, supplementation and far infrared radiation therapy - including the muscle sheaths' area.

What to Look For In A Far Infrared Sauna 

1.  Ideal infrared saunas would use micron levels in the far infrared range.  Beware of companies selling models using inferior metal tubular sheath heaters which emulate infrared radiation but in actuality have a radiant efficiency of only 50%.

2.  Some high tech heaters make use of curved ceramic heaters with a radiant efficiency of 96% - the highest efficiency now available.  And curved heaters means no matter where you sit inside your sauna, you'll be "hit" by therapeutic far infrared radiation.

3.  Ensure your home infrared sauna's heater surface temperature remains low at only 300 to 350 degrees F.  Any higher and you lose FAR infrared micron levels when ideally you want 9.4 microns - the most therapeutic and the level at which the human body also emits.  Many manufacturers sell units offering the customer NEAR or MIDDLE ranged levels of infrared radiation which is not as beneficial.

4.  For optimum Fibromyalgia assistance, ensure your sauna's infrared system outputs heat at a constant temperature - not shutting on and off during your sessions.  And verify your home sauna's heaters are backed by a lifetime warranty.

5.  Another note of interest:  believe it or not, cedar and redwood sauna cabins off gas toxic chemicals.  So though they may look fine and smell fine - they are insidiously burdening your body of more toxins than you may be unloading.  There are better options out there.  Spruce, for instance.  It's strong and beautiful but does not off gas like other woods.  Make sure your sauna manufacturer does not use wood sprayed with pesticides, while you're at it.
