Ankylosing Spondylitis

I am a 58 year old woman who was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis in my mid-twenties. The AS was severe for a few years but for the last 25 years I’ve only had occasional recurrences of the main symptoms and a fairly low level of aches and stiffness. The main reason that I bought a Cocoon was for general health purposes, to detox and for fatigue, and also to deal with the occasional pain and stiffness.

My first experience of healing with the Cocoon was after I’d dropped a heavy saucepan on my foot, which then became inflamed and painful. I used the Cocoon for about 30 mins and  the inflammation subsided completely.

I recently injured my shoulder and experienced a flare-up of AS symptoms – inflammation in my spine during the night and stiffness in the morning. Until this point I hadn’t been using the Cocoon for a while because the broken collar bone made it impossible to get inside it and I’d lent it to a relative.  I got it back and after a few daily sessions in the Cocoon the flare-up subsided and I have been almost completely pain-free.

After one particularly bad night (when I hadn’t been able to use the Cocoon the day before and had only used it a couple of times before that) I found it almost impossible to do my usual AS exercises in the morning, especially the pelvic tilt. I tried them again immediately after a 20 minute session in the Cocoon and had absolutely no pain or difficulty at all.

This demonstrates how effectively Far Infrared deals with inflammation. For me that makes it worth every penny and I would recommend that anyone with a chronic inflammatory condition should at least try a Get Fitt System.

I also have a MOBI pad, which I use in an armchair or in the car, and love it because it’s very soothing if my back gets stiff and also lightweight, so that I can carry it around easily myself.

Finally, I  recommend Gett-Fitt as a company because the customer service is excellent. Robyn and Mark are very knowledgeable and have been extremely helpful and supportive. It’s obvious that they have a real passion for their products and for helping people to get the best out of them.

Far Infrared Thermal Therapy (FITT ^TM) for Arthritis

I suffer with arthritis in my hands, and back/hip pain after an 18 feet fall 5 years ago.

The Far Infrared Sauna Cocoon has been marvellous. My arthritis is much improved and  It relieves the pain in my back/hip.

Far Infrared Thermal Therapy (FITT ^TM) Chronic Fatigue Syndrome & M.E

I have been using the FIR cocoon for nearly 2 years now and am pleased that I opted to have the Get Fitt support programme throughout. 

Tests on my mitrochondrial function had shown that I have some blocking which is probably the reason why I suffer from fibromyalgia, and I was recommended to try a detoxification programme, including the use of the Get Fitt Far Infrared sauna.

I was quite sceptical at first as my tolerance of heat is minimal, as I continued the Far Infrared programme I found that my tolerance of heat outside, as well as in the sauna, was improved.  Finally, I am able to sweat again – not just in the cocoon.

After 9 months using the cocoon I had my mitochondrial function retested and there was a significant improvement, which backs up my experience of being able to live a more active life, taking up dance and exercise classes, and coping with more stress, including managing a 7 month building project on my home that I previously could not have contemplated.

The support has been helpful on matters of diet, exercise and supplement regime, the latter of which was very helpful for mitigating the effects of Gilbert’s syndrome, which I hope is slowing down the production of further toxins – my eyes and skin are less yellow.

There is always something new to learn from the Get fit Team as their knowledge is extensive, and together we have been doing a lot of investigation to find a programme to improve my health.

The Support team are always sympathetic and understanding, which I value greatly.  There is no doubt in my mind that I could not have managed this level of improvement on my own.

Linda

Thank you and your team for such a wonderful product.The Cocoon system has rid my body of all the wood preservatives and other toxins.

I would like to thank everyone for a first class service.

After having done a mitochondrial function test for my chronic fatigue syndrome, one of the results was that I had a high score of certain toxins in my body.

Because of that my doctor gave me the name of the website for Get Fitt. The information on the website and the recommendation from my doctor made me contact Get Fitt.

The first contact with Get Fitt was good. From the outset the Get Fitt team knew about CFS so I didn’t have to explain the symptoms that come with CFS, they understand.

They explained how far infrared works and what it can do for you. Although I read about the benefits of Far Infrared for detoxification before I was hesitant to do it because of my intolerance to heat. Heat and sweating make me more tired.

One of the benefits of Far Infrared Sauna Cocoon is that you can start on a relative low temperature (under body temperature).

SUPPORT

They suggested getting support from Get Fitt for the use of the Cocoon. Support means getting you a tailor made schedule that works for you. At first I thought ok I will try it but soon enough I discovered support is very helpful.Everybody is different so everybody needs their own schedule, because of my intolerance to heat I started off very slowly.

You don’t have to sweat! The far infrared works anyway. Detoxifying will take longer though. As they say: You can run 5 miles or you can walk 5 miles both ways you reach the same point.

Every time you contact them they will discuss how you feel and what you have experienced using the Cocoon or your other treatments if any and they make a new schedule for the coming day(s) that suits you best.

My doctor once tried new medication on me which made me more tired. Then I discussed it with the people from Get Fitt and they changed my schedule.
One and a half years after the first mitochondrial function test I did the test again to see if I made progress. I made good progress although I am not there yet.

The results on the toxins were very good. Most of them were completely gone! Others changed from high levels to moderate or trace.

Because they speak with sufferers from different countries they sometimes make suggestions for treatments they have heard of that have worked. This helps you find pieces of the puzzle to treat CFS. I think the far infrared sauna Cocoon^TM is an important piece of that puzzle. The Get Fitt team wants the best for you.

Also important for people with CFS is that you are able to do Far Infrared Sauna treatment at your own home just lying on bed so you don’t have to go anywhere that makes you more tired.

First 2 months:

Having been battling Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Disorder and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for years, I had almost given up hope of getting better, but I was fortunate enough to be put in touch with Mark at Get Fitt Ltd

Once Mark had explained the detoxifying process through using the Cocoon System and its success at treating my condition in particular, I instantly knew I had to give it a go.

I have been using the Cocoon System^TM for two months now and the results have been incredible, I have lost two stone in weight and my symptoms have greatly reduced.

It takes time and I am not out of the woods yet but i am confident that sticking to the programme i will see a full recovery.

Get Fitt’s knowledge, support and confidence in the treatment’s success is invaluable.

Hi Mark

Wanted to update you on my progress…. in the last 2 days I have managed to sell my house, pack up most of its contents, load them into the car and drive from Enfield to Guildford… i think things are on the up!!!! all that after 8 weeks in bed, I can’t believe it!

Kind regards

After using the Far Infrared Sauna Cocoon over the past 6 months I have noticed an increase in my energy levels and a greater feeling of well-being.

Get Fitt’s knowledge, support and confidence in the treatment’s success is invaluable.My Doctor performed A Mitochondrial Function Test which showed that the Mitochondria were not working properly and that I had CFS.

After five months on nutritional supplements the same tests showed  my condition had actually deteriorated. My Doctor performed a Test which revealed the mitochondria were blocked by the toxin Nitrosamine. (probably from Passive smoking)

On my Doctor’s suggestion I contacted Get Fitt Ltd and with his guidance started on a detox program using  Far Infrared Thermal Treatment.

Initially I noticed small changes to my general health and then a gradual increase in energy. Six months into my detox regime I repeated the Mitochondrial Function Test which confirmed a 60-70% improvement in function. Simply put I had alot more energy.

There is still some way to go to return to full health, but I am very hopeful for the future and I currently have much more energy and am increasingly active as my health continues to improve.

I was introduced to Get Fitt Ltd when I purchased my Far infrared Blanket and we have spoken many times since. To my mind Get Fitt’s  primary motivation is to help others regain their health.”

I have used a ‘cabinet’ type Far Infra Red (FIR for short) Sauna. Recently I have changed to the Cocoon System^TMtype of FIR and I am delighted for several reasons:

Being an ME sufferer using the FIR whilst lying down, during the treatment, conserves my energy instead of using it.
The comfort factor is much greater and is very pleasant indeed, so I am able to relax and really enjoy the session.

Perhaps the most important, I feel that the whole of my body benefits from a more even exposure to the FIR energy.

In conclusion “the proof of the pudding …etc”,  I have felt better since starting to use the Cocoon System^TMand am hoping that this will continue.

 Shirley

ME and Fibromayalgia Sufferer

I became very ill with Myalgic encephalomyelitis and Fibromyalgia in 2002. After spending a couple of years totally exhausted (and several months actually bed-bound), in constant pain, with extensive brain fog and numerous other debilitating symptoms, I started to recover, through use of various treatments including glyconutrients and changes to my diet.  

I was introduced to the Far Infra Red Technology (FIR) and started using the full body Cocoon System^TM twice a day to boost my health further. Initially I noticed its very thorough detox effects and an increase in energy levels.

However, I then started part-time work in a hospital and found the change a real shock to my system. I have no doubts that it is thanks to the Far Infrared Sauna Cocoon System^TM that I have been able to carry on working over the past couple of months without any time off sick.

Every time I use the unit I feel my batteries have been recharged and I’m sure that the several bugs I’ve picked up from the hospital have been of much shorter duration thanks to using FIR.

I have also been very grateful for the informative support and advice provided by Get Fitt during using of the unit.

I have now adjusted to hospital working life again, and am currently feeling healthier and happier than I ever remember, but I continue to value the definite and significant benefits of the FIR – as well as the warmth and comfort provided by a session in it on winter evenings!

I’ve been meaning to share the good news of my discovery for weeks. I have recently acquired this wonderful wonderful FIR (Far Infrared) blanket that you can use lying on a bed :-)))) It is bliss!

I had read about the benefits of FIR a couple of years ago when I first read Rich van Konynenburg’s advised treatment procedure for ME. It is really good for gentle detoxing. But after I’d read that I hadn’t heard of anywhere you could go for FIR saunas and I imagined it would be incredibly expensive so forgot about it again, also as I’m not usually one for heat and the thought of a sauna filled me with dread.

Anyway, a couple of months ago, whilst researching FIR saunaing, I discovered that this was reaching the realms of affordability and FIR saunaing is different to traditional saunas!! I got myself one. The wonderful thing is that technology has advanced such that it is like a sleeping bag with FIR heating panels inside. You snuggle inside, have a lovely relax lying down and enjoy the warmth, knowing that you are gently detoxing. You can use the lower temperature settings to warm through or get pain relief.

And this recommendation isfrom someone who is pretty heat sensitive and didn’t really like the idea of saunaing. This Cocoon System^TM is different to a conventional sauna in that there is no steam or anything just warmth and it wraps round your body leaving your head out to keep cool, I do it with the window open and a nice breeze on my head. You need to shower straight after to wash away any toxins you have sweated out.Better still, is that the Cocoon System^TM FIR blankets are provided by GetFitt who really seem to understand ME/CFS and who are going out of their way to make FIR saunaing available to people with such conditions.

Jacqui

I developed chronic fatigue syndrome (‘cfs’) during a lengthy trip abroad travelling in Asia in early 2003 after having glandular fever in December 2002.

It grew steadily worse, frequently leaving me house and even bed-bound and by mid-2007 I had developed multiple chemical sensitivity (‘mcs’) too, reacting strongly to most kinds of perfume, wood and cigarette smoke, household paints and almost all common household detergents. The numerous doctors I consulted could find nothing physiologically wrong despite the fact that I was clearly very unwell.

In mid 2007 I consulted a Doctot who had a particular interest in fatigue-related illnesses. They took a blood sample which was sent to a biochemist who found that my mitochondria (the ‘engines’ within cells which enable us to produce energy) were blocked by a dye-based chemical. I also had high levels of heavy metals (mercury, arsenic and cadmium) and was sensitive to nickel. Major dietary changes were recommended and that I take a number of supplements aimed at giving my system the ‘fuel’ it needed to attempt to combat my problems. The Doctor also suggested that I use a Get Fitt Far infrared sauna to assist with detoxification.

I obtained a Cocoon system from Get-Fitt. I also took up their suggestion that they provide me with telephone support during the initial stages of the sauna programme. Mark Givert, to whom I spoke at Get-Fitt, devised a programme for me having obtained details from me of what my problems were. Initially, the combined effects of the sauna and the supplements I was taking made me feel considerably worse. I spoke regularly to Mark during the initial stages of my treatment and he explained to me that this was not surprising since the sauna would enable my system to mobilise toxins from where they were stored in my fat cells into my bloodstream where they could be processed and then harmlessly excreted.

Initially, I found it impossible to sweat in the sauna. After a few weeks, however, I began slowly but steadily to get stronger and my ability to sweat returned. There were some detox symptoms particularly in the early stages of the programme but I am certain that detoxification was an essential part of my recovery. I have continued to use the far infrared Cocoon^TM sauna and am now almost completely recovered.

I am in no doubt that the sauna contributed substantially to my recovery, enabling me to detoxify heavy metals and chemicals safely and effectively. I also relied heavily upon my frequent telephone support from Mark and the Get Fitt Support team. They assisted me in adjusting the sauna programme so that I could moderate the unpleasant effects of detoxification and provided sympathetic and constructive support and reassurance when I was struggling to deal with the unpleasant and debilitating effects of the recovery process and without which I think I would have struggled to persevere.

I have found Get-Fitt’s services to be professional and user-friendly and am in no doubt that, for those in the unfortunate position in which I found myself healthwise, their product and service works. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Corinna (cfs and mcs sufferer)– Still saunaing – and still improving!

I have ME and have been using the Far Infrared Sauna for over 18 months now and have found it to be a great help in aiding my recovery.

It eases my pain, and blood tests have shown that the high levels of pesticide that I had in my system are now down to a trace.

I have always found the Get-Fitt support team to be very encouraging. The help and advice on general health and nutrition I received from the team I have found invaluable.

I am very grateful for all the wonderful support and expert advice that has been given to me.

Two years ago I became suddenly very ill with what I call, with the benefit of hindsight, a toxic overload. My symptoms were many and varied and included gall stone like pain, brain fog, vomiting, metallic taste, loss of balance.  I was found to have an inflamed liver but was undiagnosed in casualty.

My condition was, in time, given a name but that particular syndrome only explained the pain and not the other symptoms which I believed to be symptoms of poisoning.  The diagnosis turned out to be a red herring.

I became more and more unwell.  I lost two stone in weight, felt completely abnormal in my brain and had a very low level of function, bedridden for much of the time.  My mother stayed with us for many months to look after our three boys so that my husband could keep his job.

I eventually found health care practitioners outside of the NHS who, most importantly, believed me, listened to me and then were able to get to the root of the problem and set me on the path to health.

Blood tests showed very high levels of flame retardant chemicals and heavy metals.  I was intolerant to many foods, chemicals and electromagnetic smog (phone masts).  Coincidently we had a new bedroom carpet fitted a couple of weeks before my initial collapse.

A massive programme of detox followed over a number of months.  It had a number of elements but one important part was getting in contact with Mark at Get Fitt Ltd and using the Cocoon Far Infrared Sauna.

The early stages of detox were a very distressing time for me and I greatly appreciated the support Mark and the Get Fitt Team gave me.  They have a real understanding of neurotoxic illness.

I am now very well and have loads of energy.  It is wonderful to have my life back.  Cocoon Far Infrared Sauna  has become a part of my weekly routine.  The sauna played a part in ridding my body of the poisons which made me so ill and now helps maintain my good health.

Vicky

The Cocoon System arrived yesterday afternoon, I have just tried it and am pleasantly surprised by the feeling of wellbeing that remains now after two hours so far. Incidentally I do not enjoy normal saunas.

Thanks again for your splendid product – I was not really expecting much, and to be honest was rather surprised to realise that it does actually work!

I have suffered from Fibromyalgia for many years. I was never one to use medication so I searched for alternative remedy’s to manage my pain. I came across Get Fitt and decided to give them a call.

The team was very helpful in explaining how Far Infrared works which was of great interest to me. I decided to go ahead and purchase my Far infrared Sauna.

At first I was a little too eager and went on for the full hour nearly every day. My body wasn’t ready for that kind of detox so with the advice from the Get Fitt support team, I reduced the amount of time spent on the bed which helped a great deal.

I have had my bed for over a year now. Detoxing this way has been a great benefit to me and my symptoms and the heat helps my muscles to relax more and helps with the pain also.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the team and the founder of Get Fitt for my wonderful Sauna.

Lorraine

After having suffered from Fibromyalgia for six and a half years and, having tried a wide variety of treatments and remedies, I was initially somewhat sceptical that regular Far Infrared treatments would alleviate the condition. 

I purchased the Cocoon on the recommendation of a fellow sufferer.

Three and a half month’s later, I am delighted to say, I am feeling better than I believed possible.  More specifically I can report the following improvements:

1. My sleep pattern is much improved.  Most nights I sleep for five to six hours without waking at all.  I used to wake several times in the night and only slept for three hours, at the most, without waking.
2. I now wake up on most mornings without pain and am no longer taking any pain killers, although I sometimes still have to use a TENS machine later in the day.
3. As a result my energy levels have increased and I no longer need to use pacing to manage my condition.
4. Using the Cocoon on the days I do three to four mile walks, reduces my overall stiffness at the end of the day.  In fact, I often climb into the Cocoon feeling sore and achy and emerge feeling warm and comfortable.
5. When I use the Cocoon, I often fall into a state of deep relaxation/meditation, which results in a tremendous feeling of wellbeing.
6. My masseuse reports that she is amazed how much softer and more relaxed my muscles have become.

So I would strongly recommend the regular use of a Far Infrared Cocoon to fellow sufferers.

Be prepared to commit time to the use of the Cocoon in order to reap the benefits.  I also recommend using the phone support service provided by the Get-Fitt team as this is extremely helpful in the early stages of treatment.

Hi Mark

Wanted to update you on my progress…. in the last 2 days I have managed to sell my house, pack up most of its contents, load them into the car and drive from Enfield to Guildford… i think things are on the up!!!! all that after 8 weeks in bed, I can’t believe it!

Chloe..

After 3 months of Far infrared Thermal Therapy

Severely poisoned in late 2007, I struggled to detox successfully.  With chemical residues over 1000% beyond ‘safe’ levels, I couldn’t tolerate supplements or standard saunas.  Every detox mechanism seemed to have been blocked and the tiniest change in routine resulted in headaches and vomiting.

When two doctors both suggested I contact Get Fitt to try Far Infrared Treatment, I decided to try it.  Warm, relaxing and very simple to use, I actually look forward to my blanket session.  I feel much clearer and more alert afterwards.  It is also particularly good at helping to clear the effects of unexpected chemical exposures such as wet paint and sprayed plants, which seem to be everywhere in modern life.

The support and treatment programme has been excellent.  Having been diagnosed with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, it is so refreshing to deal with people who really understand the implications of these conditions.

I have already seen a huge improvement over the past three months.  I am now able to take the supplements which my doctor has recommended and look forward to continuing progress over the coming year.

After 6 months Far Infrared Thermal Therapy

The results of my two fat tests and my mitochondrial test show I am now clear.  I still can’t quite believe that the Far Infrared programme managed to clear so much so quickly.

Thanks so much for all your help.

Margret (MCS Sufferer)

On the recommendation of my doctor, I contacted Mark at Get Fitt regarding the benefits of Far Infrared Treatment.

On the recommendation of my doctor, I contacted Mark at Get Fitt regarding the benefits of Far Infrared Treatment.

Mark asked me about my symptoms, so I told him I have been suffering from multiple chemical sensitivity for a number of years as a result of long-term exposure to hazardous chemicals in the workplace.

I went on to say that my most debilitating and unbearable symptom was migraines.  Although our home is free from harmful chemicals and synthetic fragrances,  I was still waking up every morning with a headache and still suffering terrible migraines, in addition to chronic fatigue and a host of other symptoms.

I started to use the Far Infrared Sauna two weeks ago and already I am feeling a great deal better and have oodles of energy. Get Fitt’s telephone monitoring and support during the detox programme, was really helpful.  They are very knowledgeable about our environment and health effects and are able to offer a variety of equipment to help……..

In fact I feel so good now that I have set up a new company.

Daf (MCS Sufferer)

I have had M.S. for 25 years now. I have been using the cocoon for about 8 weeks. I’m very pleased with the results I’ve been seeing. I’ve had many symptoms that are disappearing. My energy level  has increased tremendously.

My always cold hands and feet are now warm. My depression and anxiety levels have dropped tremendously. I’ve had leg spasms that are gone. The craving for sweets has   dropped and so has my exhaustion level. I’m not moody.There are a number of other symptoms that have lessened drastically.

‘All in all I am very pleased with the Cocoon and will continue using it so I can keep improving.’

Wendy

Since using the Cocoon System^TM for just over 6 weeks, I didn’t realize how much it had done for me until I looked back at how I was when I first started using it.

I have MS and suffer from a number of  symptoms but after using the Cocoon System^TM I have noticed that I have an incredible increase in my energy levels, I also sleep extremely well after having a treatment in the Cocoon.

I have found that my muscle aches seem to have gone as has the stiffness in my joints, neck and the extreme cold hands and feet that I suffered from. I have also noticed my skin is less dry than it was and my anxiety seems to be relieved.

The monitoring and support that I have received from Get Fitt has been fantastic too – they have really helped me alot.

So I would definitely recommend that anyone with MS should seriously think about investing in the Cocoon System^TM as it really does help.

Nina 

My name is Jane and I am 40 years old.  I was diagnosed with MS in July 2006, just before my 40^thbirthday!

The symptoms I have experienced over the last 18 months include severe dizziness and vertigo to the point where I couldn’t get out of bed even to go to the toilet.

I experienced numbness and tingling throughout the whole of my body, even in my mouth which made me feel like I have just got out of the dentists chair!  Also I had stiffness in my knee joints and probably the worst symptom was swelling pressing on my optic nerve which considerably affected by eyesight, leaving me unable to drive, work, watch tv or even go out on my own.

I started my Far Infrared treatment at the end of November and have been using my sauna at home for 3 months. Since I started using the sauna I have seen a great improvement:

My eyesight is nearly back to normal. I can now drive and I have returned to work part time.

I have also found my other symptoms improved:

The numbness and tingling have greatly reduced and the stiffness in my legs is also reduced.

I am happy to say that Far Infrared treatment has really helped to reduce my MS symptoms.

Jane 

I have felt poorly for most of my life, with a dreadful stomach, and chronic headaches.

The long list of ailments include:

Multiple Sclerosis, numbness, tingling, stabbing eye pain, black and white vision, painful electric shock sensations, CFS, Interstitial Cystitis, repeated cystitis, leaky gut, poor circulation, low stomach acid, insomnia, repeated fungal infections, breast pain, skin problems, nutritional deficiencies, painful ‘pulling’ let muscle, gum problems, undiagnosed respiratory problems and arthritis symptoms- joints swelling, pain and ceasing up etc.

I drank weedkiller when I was 2 and had access to ‘the chemical shed’, and from an early age have had repeated exposure to farm and horticultural chemicals, including getting covered with sheep dip (organophosphates) regularly and there was an unknown grey powder all over the barn where I played as a child. It emitted a pungent chemical smell when I washed my hands, which lasted for days. We sometimes worked (from the age of 7) amongst puddles of chemicals after spraying equipment had been rinsed and bags of chemicals would sometimes burst and be left lying around. My father believed that the products were safe, or that they would not be allowed.

At the age of 15, I ended up rushed to hospital, and being told I was ‘heading for a stomach ulcer’   For several years I had awful bouts of excess saliva production, uncontrollable throat spasms, pretty bad depression, memory problems, chronic fatigue, hallucinations, balance problems and far too much adrenalin – I have since been on beta blockers 3 times to slow my heart rate. I have used lead and cadmium quite a lot and have had 3 MRI scans.

Looking back I wonder whether this may have been linked to the chemicals.

My mother worked with DDT on a farm for many years, and died of MS.
My brother also worked next door to our farm in the horticultural business and had a 2″ brain tumour removed and his body produces no testosterone. He often breathed in the weedkiller ’round up’ whilst spraying crops in the 1990’s. No-one used any protective masks or clothing.My father developed severe hyper-mania and psychosis and died in a mental hospital.

In 2009 I was quite poorly, I spent a large amount of that year unable to work much and in bed. I went to my GP with a very long list of worsening symptoms, but there was not much to be done, so I saw a nutritionist who put me through comprehensive digestive analysis and other tests. With several new things diagnosed I decided to take control and do some research into my conditions and found details of the Get Fitt Far Infrared Sauna Cocoon.

Thinking that I may well have toxic issues…. I bought one. Get Fitt were fantastic, they provided regular phone support and closely monitored my programme. I felt supported by the knowledgeable and friendly voice at the end of the phone.

Initially my symptoms would come on whilst in the Cocoon, a sudden onset or worsening of a headache, or a pain where I had a wound, but it always subsided quickly and I was back to normal either during or after the treatment.

During the treatment I would quickly fall into a deep sleep, only to be woken by the machine switching itself off.  I love being in the Get Fitt far infrared Cocoon.

it was difficult to get out, being so warm and relaxing. I very rarely used to sweat (and neither did my mother) but the Far Infrared Sauna kick-started my system and I now sweat normally, which feels very cleansing – My circulation has improved a lot and I also don’t feel the cold so much anymore.

Over time I began to tolerate longer sessions with no headaches or other symptoms, the difference from when I started is amazing -I still go to sleep though.

During this time I also implemented dietary changes, I have always eaten healthy food, but was advised to give up gluten and dairy and to take a range of supplements to address my deficiencies and for the CFS.  I also followed a special diet in an attempt to control a mould called Rhodotorula, which was thankfully successful. External toxins were avoided as much as possible, toxin free skincare products and air ionizers were purchased along with a water distiller.

I also had 11 mercury fillings removed by a specialist.
My rollercoaster road to recovery involved plenty of setbacks and breakthroughs, but I kept going and am pleased to say that I have been ‘well’ for a year now and for the first time in my life and am symptom free. (apart from a negligible contrast issue in one eye which is improving all the time, and an intermittent memory..)

The headaches have gone, my skin has improved and increased energy levels have made it possible for me to work 7 days a week, often working 15 – 17 hours a day singlehandedly renovating my new art gallery and working on painting commissions for my customers.

I have never been this well and I am so thankful to the team at Get Fitt for helping with my recovery. This is the best thing I have ever bought!

19 years with multiple sclerosis and in wheelchair for 10  years. Prior to beginning Far Infrared Thermal Treatment I constantly felt ill and weak.

There were no days that I felt well.  Soon after beginning just 5 minutes a day in my Cocoon System^TM , I no longer felt unwell.  As the treatment program progressed, I began to feel well and have more energy. Now, 3 months into the program I am feeling well and energised most of the time. My general overall physical and mental states have improved significantly.   The blanket has been a major factor in my improved quality of life.

I have had M.S. for 25 years now. I’ve had many symptoms that are disappearing. I have been using the cocoon for about 6 weeks. I’m very pleased with the results I’ve been seeing. My energy level has increased tremendously.

My always cold hands and feet are now warm. My depression and anxiety levels have dropped tremendously. I’ve had leg spasms that are gone. The craving for sweets has   dropped and so has my exhaustion level. I’m not moody.

There are a number of other symptoms that have lessened drastically.

All in all I am very pleased with the Cocoon and will continue using it so I can keep improving.

Far Infrared Thermal Therapy for Pain Relief

I suffer with arthritis in my hands, and back/hip pain after an 18 feet fall 5 years ago.The Far Infrared Sauna CocoonTM has been marvellous. My arthritis is much improved and It relieves the pain in my back/hip.

Maureen

I am a 49 year old personal trainer. Exercise has always been a major part of my life. In terms of time spent exercising, +  20 hours per week,  I could be classed as an athlete. My diet is largely healthy – organic foods, fruit and veggies as far as possible, whole foods and  minimal processed foodstuffs. I am on the wellness side of the continuum.

I first started using the sauna about 6 months ago. The very first thing that astounded me was sleep. I’ve always slept well. I’m tired at the end of the day and go to sleep and wake up easily. Ever since I had my children I sleep lightly – my children cough, snore, turn, I hear it. After using the sauna only 2or 3 times my sleep became much deeper and when my head hit the pillow I knew absolutely nothing till morning and when I woke up I was refreshed. The deepest most wonderful sleep I have ever had.

The days I sauna there is always this same glorious effect.

The second thing that happened was equally dramatic. I was working with a client on a bike that monitors heart rate. Doing this particular workout my heart rate would  generally be +165 beats per minute; this day my heart rate would not go above 140bpm and I was still able to produce the same work load or burn the same amount of calories with much less strain on the heart. This effect remains when I sauna regularly. Also, at rest, my normal heart rate is + 54bpm but when I’m using the sauna regularly this goes down to +45bpm. These effects are beneficial and healthy.

At Christmas time I developed back pain and sciatica. This happens when I neglect to balance my own exercise program. My physio with acupuncture and my osteopath manipulated but made no difference. I happened to do an unusually long session in the sauna( I fell asleep) and lo and behold my back pains disappeared and have not returned.

The last and no less amazing effect the FIR sauna has had has been the effect it has had on my memory and thinking. Since having children these have never really recovered.  The sauna, used regularly, has improved my cognitive function immeasurably.

Thanks so much for arranging for the delivery of my Far Infrared Cocoon^TM   yesterday, the best birthday present I could have hoped for. 

I tried the sauna this morning.  The Far Infrared Sauna gives excellent results, really effective heat distribution, with really fantastically user-friendly controls.We appreciate the intelligent design and high quality of your equipment in comparison with the other types of blanket on the market.

At the beginning of the sauna I went in with quite acute lower back pain and after half an hour I came out and the pain had eased considerably.  I also feel extremely relaxed and at ease.  What a wonderful start to my new treatment!

Once again, Mark, thanks so much.

I had a low back whiplash injury as a result of a car accident. Although I did the usual things of going to see my osteopath and then a physiotherapist and massage therapist, the day long ache in my lower back continued.

I purchased a Get Fitt Far Infrared system and found that each time I used it my back was pain free for a little longer each day. It was an essential part of my journey to recovery. I would strongly recommend FIR and Get Fitt.

Tracy

I have suffered from Fibromyalgia for many years. I was never one to use medication so I searched for alternative remedy’s to manage my pain. I came across Get Fitt and decided to give them a call.

The team was very helpful in explaining how Far Infrared works which was of great interest to me. I decided to go ahead and purchase my Get Fitt Far infrared Sauna System.

At first I was a little too eager and went on for the full hour nearly every day. My body wasn’t ready for that kind of detox so with the advice from the Get Fitt support team, I reduced the amount of time spent on the bed which helped a great deal.

I have had my Far Infrared system for over a year now. Detoxing this way has been a great benefit to me and my symptoms and the heat helps my muscles to relax more and helps with the pain also.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the team and the founder of Get Fitt for my wonderful Sauna.

Lorraine

First I must say this is one of the best buy I’ve done till now. It really helped with my back problem (shoulders and lower back). Even my physiotherapist would notice the difference. It’s helped me a lot during last winter which has been long, very cold and humid.

Thanks to the FIR Cocoon the sensation of having the cold in my bones was gone. I also used to feel itchy quite often and this has all disappeared completely. I must thank you Mark as well as your team for the support you gave during the first weeks when I received the product. I felt I met a very caring team. Nowadays I use it once a week or even once every 2 weeks and I don’t regret one second my purchase.

Thank you again.

Dorothy 

I have ME and have been using the Far Infra Red Sauna for over 18 months now and have found it to be a great help in aiding my recovery.

It eases my pain, and blood tests have shown that the high levels of pesticide that I had in my system are now down to a trace.

I have always found the Get-Fitt support team to be very encouraging. The help and advice on general health and nutrition I received fro mthe team I have found invaluable.

I am very grateful for all the wonderful support and expert advice that has been given to me.

Cervical Degeneration & Pinched Nerves

I have been given many treatments over the last 10 years to alleviate neck pain caused by cervical degeneration.

The pinched nerves in my neck caused pain and tingling down the left arm. I have attended pain clinics, physiotherapy, tai-chi, to name but a few. Two courses of radio frequency denervation cut the pain signals but over time the nerves regenerated so the pain came back.

However, since using the Cocoon under the guidance of the Get Fitt support team, my nerve pain has almost disappeared.  I am able to do many things such as gardening without being in agonising pain.  Gentle exercises are a part of my daily routine – it is as if I have moved back in time.  May it long continue.

Patricia (aged 67)

Ps. This time last year I was not able to do gardening or exercise without being in agony all the time.  I can’t believe that the cocoon has made such a difference to my life style and in such a short time

After 2 months

Having been battling Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Disorder and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for years, I had almost given up hope of getting better, but I was fortunate enough to be put in touch with Mark at Get Fitt Ltd

Once Mark had explained the detoxifying process through using the Cocoon System  and its success at treating my condition in particular, I instantly knew I had to give it a go.

I have been using the Far Infrared Cocoon System for two months now and the results have been incredible, I have lost two stone in weight and my symptoms have greatly reduced.

It takes time and I am not out of the woods yet but i am confident that sticking to the programme i will see a full recovery.

Get Fitt’s knowledge, support and confidence in the treatment’s success is invaluable.

After many years of suffering with alot of pain, severe stiffness of the body, (including a frozen shoulder) nasal congestion and fatigue I spoke with my personal detox specialist at Get Fitt.

He explained that a lot of the problems we encounter as we get older are due to toxic substances building up the body due to incorrect food habits. He added that a detox programme is only effective if we don’t “retox” by again taking foods that do not suit us.

It was suggested that firstly I drop out the “nightshade foods” which I had never heard of and which he suspected may be a cause of my stiffness. Unfortunately they included some foods (potatoes, tomatoes) that I liked but I was happy to try anything that might improve my health.

In addition I was advised to commence a detox programme using the Far infrared Cocoon System which I started with his close supervision and guidance.

Then he also took me to some of the larger supermarkets and taught me how to shop for foods that were healthy, nutritious and easy to prepare. I was then also shown some simple quick and delicious recipes that were ideal for my busy life style.

I was optimistic but was not prepared for the sudden and stark change in my health. After three weeks I am less stiff, my shoulder has improved to such a degree that I am now playing tennis again  (I had to give up the sport I loved for six months due to pain).

Also my nasal congestion has reduced significantly, I have much better concentration and my energy levels have increased dramatically.

 For me this simple and effective programme has put me in charge of my health and has given me simple tools that will serve me well.

Thanks Mark ….. from one happy customer.

P.S  By the way I forgot to mention the added bonus of an effortless half stone (7 lbs) weight loss….in just a few weeks.
