A steamy existence
SlaDE~ and I finally took the leap … we invested in our health and well-being whilst here in Calgary and bought a family membership to the local gym. Not only is it convenient and pure luxury, it’s only a 5 minute walk away from our apartment. This is absolutely fantastic! No more excuses to not work out. Not only is the Talisman Centre http://www.talismancentre.com/ North America’s biggest recreation centre, it offers amazing drop-in classes of Yoga (several different forms) and Pilates. SlaDE thoroughly enjoys the diving boards (platforms of many differing heights) whilst I am a bit reticent and hesitant to start diving again into water, with my shoulder dislocation still giving me aches and pains when I least expect.
With every visit, I take advantage of the powerful health-enhancing effects of their searing hot steam room.
In my research about the benefits of a steam room, I discovered this:
The latest research shows steam hyperthermia an effective treatment for:
* Detoxification programs
* Immune system deficiencies
* Pain management
* Cancer
* Arthritis
* Stress and muscle tension
* Increasing body metabolism
* Elimination of toxins
* Blood circulation
I’m hooked!
