How do you prefer it, dry or humid?
Dear Reader.
Because that is the main distinguishing feature of our proposal for starting the "new course". Let´s allow ourselves be embraced by the
delightful benefits of steam... You can call it sauna (if you prefer dry heat) or a steam bath (when you fancy wet). The benefits though,
are shared by both.
Hippocrates, the founder of Western medicine more than two-thousand years ago said: "Give me the power to create a fever, and I shall
cure any disease." And this is exactly what Steam baths are often called "Artificial fevers". Fever, often misunderstood as a symptom of
disease, is actually a necessary part of the body´s healing response.
So moving beyond its more "anecdotal benefits", for relaxation, or skin cleansing, steam baths stimulate the immune system, improve
circulation, act as a pain relief, perform an overall body detox and even assist in weight reduction plans.
While you find yourself getting empowered by the virtues of steam, let us present you this month’s solution for steam applications, VXS,
the zero differential pressure solenoid valve. It does not reduce weight but it will reduce your costs.

Préférez-vous la sécheresse ou l'humidité ?
Cher Lecteur,
Que vous choisissiez le sauna (si vous préférez la chaleur sèche) ou le hammam (si vous êtes adepte de la chaleur humide), les
bienfaits que vous en retirez sont similaires.
Hippocrate, qui fonda la médecine occidentale il y a plus de 2 000 ans, déclarait : « Donnez-moi le pouvoir de provoquer une fièvre, et
je pourrais soigner n'importe quelle maladie. » Et c'est exactement la raison pour laquelle on parle souvent de « fièvre artificielle »
pour désigner les bains de vapeur. La fièvre, souvent perçue à tort comme un symptôme de maladie, est en réalité une réaction
nécessaire au processus de guérison du corps.
Ainsi, au-delà de leurs « bienfaits anecdotiques », pour la relaxation ou la purification de la peau, les bains de vapeur stimulent le
système immunitaire, améliorent la circulation, soulagent les douleurs, ont un effet détoxifiant et contribuent même à la perte de poids.
À présent que vous êtes convaincu des vertus de la vapeur, permettez-nous de vous présenter la solution du mois pour les applications à
vapeur, l'électrodistributeur à pression différentielle zéro. Elle ne vous fera pas perdre de poids, mais elle réduira assurément vos coûts.
