ARE SHOWER FACILITIES REQUIRED IN A CLINIC SITUATION?
A. We recommend showering immediately after sauna use to avoid re-absorption of toxins. However, we have found that the patient is very reluctant to shower in the doctor’s office and prefers to go directly home to shower. Therefore, most health practitioners have the patient arrive in a sweat suit with a swimsuit underneath. The treatment usually lasts thirty minutes. The patient sits on a towel has his/her feet on a towel and wipes off the perspiration as it occurs. The patient then dons his/her sweat suit and goes home to shower. The re-absorption is minimal.
