I’ve suffered from neck and back pain for quite a long time, my shoulders and neck periodically seize up and I’m left with a crippling tension headache… That’s why my neighbor advocated I started doing yoga to stretch and strengthen my muscles, however i started instantly, and noticed a immense difference in the tension I had been experiencing, plus an overall improvement in body condition, and soon, however, I was trying new sorts of classes to get even more relief from my symptoms, such as hot yoga.
In those classes they crank up the heating system until the room reaches nearly 90 degrees, and the extra heat opens and soothes your muscles. I decided I couldn’t afford to continue paying for classes and wanted to try these techniques at home, but my heating system didn’t seem like it could handle the extra labor load. I would turn my thermostat up all the way and leave for multiple hours, only to return and find that I was nowhere near the required 90 degree indoor air temperature. My energy costs were soaring from the extra stress on my central heating system, and I realized I had to try something else. I ended up purchasing multiple electric space boilers and plugging them all in simultaneously in the smallest room of my apartment. I couldn’t feel how effective these little electric boilers were! Within an hour the air temperature was perfect, I was able to do my hot yoga in the comfort of my well heated home, and find all the relief I needed from my sore muscles.
