HYPERTHERMIA
occurs when the inter-
nal temperature of the body reaches a
level several degrees above the normal
body temperature of 98.6° F. The symp-
toms of hyperthermia include an increase
in the internal temperature of the body,
dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and faint-
ing. The effects of hyperthermia include:
a) Failure to perceive heat;
b) Failure to recognize the need to exit
the steambath;
c) Unawareness of impending risk;
d) Fetal damage in pregnant women;
e) Physical inability to exit the steambath
and
f) Unconsciousness.
The use of alcohol,
drugs, or medication can greatly increase
the risk of hyperthermia.
When using this steam bath equipment, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
2.
Supervise children at all times.
3.
Steam is hot and can cause
injury or death if improperly used. Steam
rooms contain steam and elevated tempera-
tures. Please read and observe all warnings
in this manual before installing or using a
steam room.
4.
To reduce the risk of injury:
A.
The wet surfaces of steam enclosures
may be slippery. Use care when entering
or leaving.
B.
The steam head is hot. DO NOT touch the
steam head and avoid the steam near
the steam head.
C.
Prolonged use of the steam system can raise
excessively the internal human body tempera-
ture and impair the body’s ability to regulate
its internal temperature (hyperthermia). Limit
your use of steam to 10-15 minutes until you
are certain of your body’s reaction.
D.
Excessive temperatures have a high
potential for causing fetal damage
during the early months of pregnancy.
Pregnancy or possibly pregnant
women should consult a physician
regarding correct exposure.
E.
Obese persons and persons with a his-
tory of heart disease, low or high
blood pressure, circulatory system
problems, or diabetes should consult
a physician before using a steambath.
F.
Persons using medication should con-
sult a physician before using a steam-
bath since some medication may
induce drowsiness while other med-
ications may affect heart rate, blood
pressure and circulation.
