Using temperature therapeutically is becoming increasingly popular. Saunas and cold immersion ice baths are being touted in the biohacking community for overall longevity. Published research surely backs this up. The health benefits of thermogenesis and sauna are seen in cardiovascular disease, mood disorders, immune optimization, detoxification, and many other clinical conditions.

Today we discuss sauna and cold immersion with Andrew Nehlig and Jennifer Richter. They own and operate ‘Sauna House’, a premier Nordic-styled bathhouse located in Asheville, NC. They are passionate about their work and share their insight regarding the health benefits of sauna.

The world of medicine can be challenging. Clinicians and patients are always looking for more options, more effective treatments… and in the end, more answers. What if there was a way to practice medicine that digs deeper and offers a new perspective? Functional medicine focuses on addressing root causes of disease. At Genova Diagnostics we’ve watched this field evolve and grow for over 35 years….

We’ve not only adapted, we’ve led. Join us as we talk about functional medicine, laboratory testing, and optimizing health. Welcome to the Lab Report.
