With so much stress and daily schedules that are tight and exacting; it’s no wonder so many of us feel stressed out at the end of the day. However, there are ways to unwind and relax such as with a steam room or sauna.

Relaxing in a sauna is a wonderful way to unwind and relax muscles that are tight. It is important to note that the heat that comes from a sauna also soothes jaded nerves and can be especially helpful for those who suffer from migraine headaches and arthritis.

HEAL WITH SAUNAS AND STEAM ROOMS

Most importantly, saunas can also induce healthy sleep; especially if you suffer from insomnia. It is the heat from the sauna that releases endorphins, that wonderful chemical in the body that reduces the effects of stress on the body. On the other hand, a steam room is wonderful in improving breathing and relieving congestion. It is the wet heat of the steam room that opens the nasal passages, which in turn, relieves the pressure and congestion. Steam rooms are beneficial for those who suffer from bronchitis and asthma. Some may not know it but a steam room can also help you lose weight. Sweating in a steam room also works to cleanse the body and remove harmful toxins.

Keep in mind that a steam room also clears impurities on the skin; which is quite helpful for those who have acne. Most importantly, saunas and steam rooms are also helpful when it comes to lessening arthritis pain and fibromyalgia. In addition, those who suffer from emotional disorders such as depression may find relief from a sauna or steam room experience.

Many have also found relief from chronic sinus infections or chronic congestion because the steam helps to loosen and clear the mucous from a person’s chest, nose and throat. Of course, as with any kind of treatment, it is advisable to limit your time in a sauna or steam room to the recommended limits for your first several visits and always drink several glasses of water after a treatment. This will help to prevent dehydration.

It is important to note that for those who have a weak immune system, a steam room can kill off harmful microorganisms that can harm the body. This microorganism cannot tolerate the raised body temperature and therefore they die. This is a boost to the immune system and a definite benefit of enjoying a steam room experience.

RELAX IN THE AZIA SAUNA

Relaxing in a sauna also improved the circulation of blood; which increases the flow of oxygen to various organs in the body. This, in turn, enhances the quality of breathing in a person. Most importantly, when a person’s breathing is enhanced, stress and anxiety lessens and that can prevent certain diseases from entering the body.

To conclude, with the many health benefits that come from sauna and steam rooms; it is a no brainer that these healthy methods are important and necessary for your good health!

DEAD SEA MUD WRAP

Black Mud is so healing to the body; it is no wonder why mankind has used it for thousands of years. Discover it for yourself and get a Dead Sea Mud Body Wrap at Azia Medical Spa in Birmingham, Alabama!

Dead Sea mud has a high concentration of salts and minerals. The reason it has such a high concentration of salts and minerals is due to the warm desert sun that evaporates the Dead Sea water, so the salts and minerals get absorbed into the mud at the bottom of the sea. This mud is then extracted and packaged, with all the impurities removed.

Enveloping the body in mineral-rich Dead Sea mud forms a sealing layer over the skin that increases the body temperature. The blood flow is activated and oxygen and nutrients penetrate to the end of even the tiniest blood vessels and stimulate activity in all layers of the skin. Heat helps the body eliminate toxins through perspiration and stimulates the natural cell metabolism

Black Mud is so healing to the body, it is no wonder why mankind has used it for thousands of years.

HEAL SKIN AILMENTS

The reason why the Dead Sea wrap is so beneficial to your skin is because of all the elements contained in the mud. The salts and minerals contained in the mud include silicon compounds, potassium, magnesium, and natural tar. The silicon found in the mud is what actually helps the wrap to harden and conform to your skin, letting more of these valuable nutrients into the skin where they can help with a surprising number of conditions. The Dead Sea wrap in addition to healing skin ailments, can hydrate the skin and help to slow down the aging process.

SKIN HYDRATION, BALANCE SKIN TONE AND REMOVE IMPURITIES

While many people love the hydration qualities of the mud, applying it to the skin directly can also help to improve your circulation as well. Taking some of the mud and rubbing into certain areas of the body will actually help to regenerate the skin too. The mud itself contains very fine grains that are similar to the ones found in many facial creams that exfoliate the skin. The Dead Sea mud cleanses the skin and helps to remove any impurities from your body. Take a small handful of the Dead Sea mud and rub it over your body and it will remove toxins and impurities, dirt particles, and peel away at the outer layer of dead skin, revealing a supple and youthful appearance.

ANTI-AGING AND REDUCING WRINKLES

People who live in extreme cold or hot regions of the country will benefit tremendously from the Dead Sea wrap because it will hydrate and moisturize your dry skin. The extreme cold and the heat of the sun can take its toll on the skin. The Dead Sea mud will moisturize the skin and help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. When the skin is hydrated, it will be less likely to show fine lines and wrinkles that appear as the skin is stretched.

Many elderly are now beginning to appreciate the powerful effects of the mud, are use it to help with many ailments like muscle stiffness, arthritis, joint inflammation, and rheumatism. The high concentration of the minerals and salts that remain in the Dead Sea mud are unlike any you will find in store bought pain reliever rubs and creams. The reason the Dead Sea wrap is so successful at helping with so many different skin conditions is as it dries on the skin, the mud pulls toxins from the body. The end result from using any Dead Sea products is skin that is much softer and has a beautiful glow.
