I have a friend who uses this machine that he swears by for fatigue and a bunch of other symptoms. I always thought it was a gimmick but i actually tried it twice in the past few days and both times i actually felt pretty good afterwords.
Anyways, I am thinking of purchasing one for myself, do any of you have any experience/feedback on this machine? it is somewhat of an investment - $1600

You can get a portable one for 500 or even less. So if this unit comes with the ozone, etc. then it might be differentiated, but if the 1600 is just the FIR sauna, it does seem expensive. I agree you could get a nice wood one for less or about the same.

I have a portable sauna in my home and used to use it about 5 days a week.
Then an LLMD (not MY LLMD, I actually keep forgetting to ask him about it) said that I should only be sweating in the sauna once a week.
He said the Herx reactions will just be too strong and it will make me feel very sick.
I haven't really noticed any changes since I haven't been using the sauna so much; but I've also started treatment since I've cut back on using it.
Anyone have any feelings on how often to use the sauna??

You guys are lucky!! I sweat at least 5 days a week from spring to fall. I work in a factory, and it gets to 95 degrees inside in mid summer.
I sweat heavily the first 2-4 hours, then I'm just moist the last 4 hours. I work second shift, so the temp drops around 10 degress when the sun goes down. I also stand right by a 3000 degree molding machine. They do have fans up in the ceiling, but they sometimes don't blow on you.
