Tooth by the Lake, in Hopkins, has added a Near Infrared Sauna (NAS) to their wellness practice. “We are excited to be able to offer this to our patients to further help with mercury detoxification and overall health,” says Dr. Kari Seaverson.

NAS is an indoor sauna powered and heated by the ‘near’ portion of the infrared energy spectrum. Near infrared is a shorter wavelength of infrared energy that carries 10 times the energy of the far infrared. NAS is especially powerful in cleansing the body and for whole body detoxification, including removing fat-soluble compounds, water-soluble compounds and heavy metals.

Some of the other benefits include sweating out toxins, cleansing internal organs, improving circulation and the immune system and skin rejuvenation.

Tooth by the Lake dental office has been creating healthy smiles in the Hopkins area since 1982 when Dr. Dwight Tschetter founded the practice. Seaverson now owns the full-service practice and her husband, Dr. John Seaverson, recently joined the team of holistically-minded dental practitioners. Both are members of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) and the Holistic Dental Association and are actively involved in continuing their education in traditional and holistic dentistry.
