Blood circulation and lymphatic drainage improves, vascular spasm is relieved. This is useful for hypertension, varicose veins, atherosclerosis.
-
Breathing and gas exchange increase. Oxygen consumption by tissues increases. This helps eliminate toxins.
-
The activity of the sweat and sebaceous glands increases. The skin is cleansed and toxins are removed. The skin becomes more elastic and firm.
-
Thermoregulation is activated. The body adapts to temperature changes. This improves immunity and strengthens.
