Book Review: The Holistic Handbook of Sauna Therapy

In our modern world, approximately 6,000 new chemical compounds are created each week. These and the heavy metals that contaminate our food, water, and air supply are implicated in a wide variety -  perhaps even a majority – of major health problems. Our ability to thrive may therefore depend upon our ability to detoxify; of all detoxification modalities, sauna therapy may be the most time-tested method. Doris J. Rapp, M.D., author of Is This Your Child? and Chemical Time Bomb – and an expert on sauna therapy - describes Dr. Sylver’s sauna treatise as “simply the best book I have ever read on this topic.” I agree.
