Near Infrared Lamp Sauna Have a
​Parasympathetic (Healing) Effect)

The answer is it is due to a combination of factors about the sauna that combine very powerfully.  Alone, none would be so potent, but together they are awesome.  The factors are:

1. Sweating. 

Sweating is generally considered to be a parasympathetic nervous system effect.  It occur during exercise, a sympathetic activity.  However, sweating itself tends to be parasympathetic, meaning it requires activation of parasympathetic nerves for it to take place.

2. Moving blood from the center to the periphery of the body. 

The sympathetic nervous system moves and keeps the blood congested in the internal organs.  The sauna powerfully moves blood to the periphery of the body, so that the body can release some heat at the skin.  This is a parasympathetic effect.

3. Adding Heat. 

The sympathetic system heats the body.  When heat is supplied from outside the body, it tends to shut down the sympathetic nervous system so that the body will produce less heat.

4. Hot on Top, Cold on Bottom.  

This is interesting.  When sitting in a sauna, the top of the sauna tends to be hotter, while the bottom is cooler.  Heating the head while cooling the feet seems to have a powerful parasympathetic effect.  This may be because it sends blood flowing out of the head and into the feet, which relaxes the nervous system.

5. Infrared (or IR) Effects. 

While red light is stimulating, the near infrared with the colored lamps has a powerful parasympathetic effect.  I do not know why this is so, but it must have something to do with the particular frequencies.  Perhaps it has something to do with the penetrating effect of the IR, but I am not sure.

In one experiment, a lady reported to me that she shined a plain red light on her puppies and they became more agitated.  Then she switched the bulb and shined a red ‘heat lamp’ on the puppies and they calmed down.

6. Removing Clothing. 

Any time you remove all or most of your clothing, there is some parasympathetic effect, providing the environment is warm and comfortable.  I am not sure why this is so, except that clothing is somewhat unnatural and one may actually relax when wearing less of it.

7. Sitting OR Lying Down, Compared to Standing Up, has a Parasympathetic Effect. 

Sitting or lying down are simply more relaxing.  I do not usually recommend lying down in a near infrared sauna.  It is not needed, though it is relaxing.  However, please never stand up and use the sauna, as it won’t work nearly as well. 

8. Sitting Quietly has a Parasympathetic Effect. 

For this reason, do not exercise during your sauna. 

9. Praying, Meditating OR Listening To Quiet Music Has a Parasympathetic Effect. 

While this is not a feature of the sauna itself, many people pray, meditate or listen to quiet music in the sauna, and this has a parasympathetic effect, as well.

10. Improving Oxygenation, Circulation & Hydration. 

These occur with sauna use and have a generally parasympathetic effect in most cases.

Please note that there is only one nutritional balancing science, developed by Dr. Paul Eck. All other claims made by other practitioners, not approved by Dr. Lawrence Wilson on his site, have altered Dr. Eck's principles and as such have no in depth understanding of the science, which is very unfortunate.  

Further, altering even one aspect of a nutritional balancing program often ruins it rather completely.  This could be substituting different products that you like better, skipping an aspect of the diet or the supplements, or implementing other diets, such as GAPS OR PALEO, OR something else that people do all the time, such for example using other forms of meditation, other than what is recommended by Dr. Wilson.  In other words, using other products or diets, or meditation, conflicts with the entire program and it seriously reduces its effectiveness. Thus, nutritional balancing science is completely integrated, meaning that the sciences are used together in very unique way and should not be altered by yourself or other practitioners.
