Our bodies are bombarded with toxins every day, both internally and externally. The foods we eat, the drugs we take, and bad habits like smoking or drinking work to clog our systems with substances and toxins that make us feel sluggish and ill. Externally, our bodies absorb toxins that are in the air, like pesticide residue, heavy metals in the environment, and many other types of pollutants.
Detoxification Methods
In order for your body to be healthier, it is important to use detoxification therapy to rid your system of harmful pollutants and toxins in your blood, liver, lungs, and other organs. There are several methods for getting rid of toxins in the body, including:
- Taking a Sauna
- Having Massages
- Using Vibrations
Taking a Sauna
Working up a significant sweat in a sauna allows the heat and steam to expand your skin’s pores in order to release the toxins trapped in your body. Along with traditional saunas, using an infrared sauna can also help release toxins through the skin and from your muscles. In addition to ridding the body of toxins, infrared saunas have been found to effectively reduce stress responses in the body, which can help lower blood pressure, and they can help balance the autonomic nervous system. They can help with improving blood circulation, balance your blood sugar levels, and improve the process of detoxifying your body.
Having Massages
Along with being a good way to release stress and relax, having a massage, especially a lymphatic or a Swedish massage, is good for helping rid your body of harmful toxins. As the masseur works the muscles of your body, he or she is helping to move a fluid called lymph throughout the body. This substance helps to draw toxins out of the muscles and other tissues, and releases them into the bloodstream where they are filtered through the liver and kidneys. Regular massages also help reduce stress levels, and reduce depression, anxiety, and pain.
Using Vibrations
Another method used in detoxification therapy is using vibrations to help rid your body of harmful toxins. Technology has allowed for the invention of vibration machines that help to create oscillating vibrations, which are essentially a side-to-side rocking motion. Using this machine helps stimulate the body’s cells, especially in the muscles, bones, and throughout the body’s other soft tissues, without putting any stress on the joints, tendons, or ligaments. These vibration machines offer many benefits like toning muscles, burning calories, and reducing pain, but they also work to help expedite lymphatic drainage, which helps to rid the body of poisonous toxins.
Detoxification therapy is a good way to help make you feel better, improve your health, and improve how your liver, kidneys, and other body organs function.
