FAR INFRARED MAGNESIUM WRAPS
What is a Far Infrared Magnesium Wrap?
The Far Infrared Magnesium Wrap, developed by Galina St George, is a luxurious treatment which combines far-infrared heat and the power of magnesium to promote detoxification, weight loss, immunity, relaxation of tissues, nerves, blood vessels, sleep, relaxation of the mind, increase in the energy levels, blood circulation, metabolism, reduction in aches & pains, water retention, cramps, fatigue, quick increase in magnesium levels in the body which benefits the heart, blood vessels, nerves and all the other body tissues. In a nutshell, this is one of the quickest way to sweat out toxins, lose extra pounds, and replenish magnesium levels in the body. Even one treatment can produce dramatic results.
The treatment is performed using an infrared thermal bag/sauna and magnesium oil, gel or scrub. Magnesium oil has a stronger action than magnesium gel. Magnesium scrub has sea salt in it, and is a more potent product if the main goal is to lose weight, boost circulation, metabolism and immunity.
The infrared heat penetrates deep into the body tissues promoting relaxation. Unlike ordinary heat, with far infrared heat much deeper layers of the skin are affected. The heat also increases the product interaction with the body and its effect many times. Body tissues relax and pores open up to take in the vital minerals from the products while sweating out the toxins, and aches and pains with them.
The treatment consists of a body scrub/massage, followed by a 30-60 minute session in an infrared thermal sauna bag. Duration of the treatment is determined by the goal and the recipient’s state of health. These factors also determine the temperature settings. Full information about the procedure is provided at our workshops.
After the treatment
Expect to sweat out a lot of water (with toxins!) and feel thirsty afterwards (drinking plenty of slightly salted water is essential after the treatment to prevent dehydration). Also expect to feel and look lighter, healthier, relaxed, rejuvenated.
This is what Joy is writing about it: “I woke up this morning refreshed and rejuvenated. I looked in the mirror and I swear I look 10 years younger. My skin now feels like silk and can’t feel an ache in my body. I can’t wait to come back for more. The combination of Galina’s amazing salt tissue body wraps combined with her exquisite massage – you’ll definitely leave the table already looking forward to next time.”Joy Anderson, Joy Yoga Studio.

Bishofit – Magnesium Oil from Russia
Bishofit is a name for magnesium chloride salt which was formed millions of years ago as a result of evaporation of ancient seas. It lies deep underground – and is obtained by dissolving the crystals in water and pumping up the saturated solution. In this respect Bishofit has the same origin as Zechstein magnesium. It owes its name to a German chemist Gustav Bischof who first discovered underground deposits of magnesium chloride in 19th century.
The main constituent of Bishofit in its liquid form is Magnesium Chloride hexahydrate, some calcium sulphate, calcium chloride, calcium hydrocarbonate, sodium chloride, and of course water, with the overall mineral content of 400-450g per 1 litre of water. Additionally, Bishofit contains sodium, iodine, iron, bromide, silica, molybdenum, titanium, lithium, as well as traces of almost all the chemical elements of the Periodic Table.
Healing Properties of Bishofit
People have known about the healing properties of Bishofit for a long time and have been using it to treat muscle cramps, aches and pains, to calm nerves, relax, etc. It is widely used in balneology due to its analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect to treat osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, lumbago, and other conditions of the Musculo-skeletal and Nervous systems. It is also used to treat nervous tension, stress, a variety of skin conditions and a number of other problems.
Bishofit (Magnesium Chloride solution) is widely used in medicine for a number of pharmacological properties.
It has been found to:
* Stimulate protein/fat metabolism
* Reduce inflammation by lowering the levels of histamine and serotonin (mediators of inflammation)
* Speed up rehabilitation processes in the body
* Increase testosterone levels and sperm production
* Increase metabolic rate
* Strengthen immunity
* Slow down ageing
* Reduce cholesterol levels in the blood

The scientists of the Volgograd Medical Academy have been working on the research of Bishofit for over 20 years. The mineral has been approved in Russia as a balneological remedy. Considering the wide use of Bishofit in the treatment of various ailments in Russia, as well as its close similarity to a variety of medical products, a number of balneological products based on Bishofit have been developed. Russian scientists are working on pharmacological preparations based on Bishofit.
