π₯ Sweat Therapy: How Saunas Support Healing in Functional Medicine
In functional medicine, we use sauna therapy as a powerful way to support detoxification, reduce inflammation, and promote cellular repair.
Hereβs what the research shows:
β¨ 1οΈβ£ Reduces Inflammation
Saunas trigger mild, controlled heat stress β which boosts your bodyβs natural anti-inflammatory pathways and reduces markers like CRP (C-reactive protein).
π 2οΈβ£ Supports Cardiovascular Health
Regular sauna use mimics moderate exercise by increasing heart rate and improving blood vessel elasticity β supporting circulation and blood pressure.
π¦ 3οΈβ£ Enhances Detoxification
Through sweating, your body eliminates toxins like heavy metals, BPA, and environmental pollutants, easing the load on your liver and kidneys.
π§ 4οΈβ£ Boosts Mood & Energy
Heat therapy raises endorphins, increases serotonin, and improves sleep quality β helping with stress, fatigue, and even mild depression.
πͺ 5οΈβ£ Supports Muscle Recovery
Increased blood flow helps muscles recover faster after physical activity or chronic pain flares.
π Regular sauna sessions are an easy, relaxing way to support your detox pathways, hormone balance, and longevity β key pillars of functional wellness.
