Hi there, my husband has just recently purchased an infrared sauna for me due to the fact i had a course of treatment last year and felt great afterwards.Now on doing a little bit more reserch i have stumbled apon the advice to all Lupus patients is 2 proceed with caution.Yet some other sites say it may benefit sufferers.I am really confused and worried i'll do myself more harm.My sauna is due to arrive on Tuesday and i am wondering wether or not i'll be allowed to use it.
Does anyone know much about this or have any advise regarding the use of them,any advice would be very appreciated.
Kind regards Gwenni x:worried:

Infrared Sauna

Thanks guys for all your replies,i will take your advice on board.
I should have said that traditional saunas i cant cope with but after a trial of 5 consecutive treatments of only 15 mins in these infrared ones i had a remarkable boost in energy and less aches and pains it also made me feel really positive.The fact that i drove there everyday for 5 days was quite remarkable in itself as i normally cant do that for the pain.
I will however consult my doctor, to make sure im not going to be doing myself any harm.
My therory is when u feel as bad as we do most days,anything that makes us even remotely better about ourselves is worth a try,i however understand it may not be the case for everybody.
Thanks for your support and for listening.
Love Gwenni x0x0x:)
