Why Outdoor Sauna & Ice Bath? Why Element Outdoor Sauna Therapy?

 

Humans are meant to be resilient enough to handle distress. But modern day, people have given away control of health.

We have survived the ice age. What does this mean? Simple, our ancestors made sure we continue to thrive today, so in us all, in our DNA/RNA we have beautiful defence systems which is our way to thrive beyond basic survival.

HUMANS REQUIRE BASIC NECESSITIES:

  • whole food/ nutrition

  • movement/ exercise

  • good water w/ electrolytes

  • adaptation to heat/ cold

  • being outdoors, connecting to nature.

    The adaptation is lost in the modern world. People barely go outside, let alone pushing one’s boundaries. Humans have become complacent and even on the brink of redundancy.

Practicing Contrast Therapy

Understanding the processes of our beings on a cellular level is vital to our health. Element Outdoor Sauna is operated by Certified Thermalist®, Denise Tompkins. She understands the body and mind making the practice of contrast therapy here in Toronto the most knowledgeable person in the sauna industry.

PITFALLS OF HUMANS

Human health suffers by way of toxin overload, over consumption of fake foods, alcohol, substances our bodies get bombarded with daily. Setting up a clogged system with metabolic destruction. How does this feel in the body?:

  • inflammation

  • aches, pains, stiffness

  • skin tells us alot - allergic reactions, blotchy patches, swelling or puffyness

  • foggy mind

  • anger at the smallest thing

  • poor sleep - inability to hit deep sleep and REM, poor HRV, wake up tired

  • cortisol and insulin imbalances

  • hormone dysregualtion

  • Type 2 diabetes knocking at your door

  • Type 3 diabetes on the heels

  • Simply feeling like crap

  • decresed energy

This chronic stress leads to over use of immune system and cellular health diminishes, or dies.

THERE IS A WAY OUT OF THIS, THERE IS HOPE

By reducing the chronic nature of our choices our lifestyle, we can remove the inflammatory markers to prevent the illnesses of today. Most of them are metabolic, meaning, lifestyle choices. Tossing aside your power.
