As TopCat has mentioned to me before although it is a recovery method it both the sauna and epsom bath can still be taxing. Depending on the length of time spent in the sauna or bath could regulate its effect. I would think that a sauna would be more taxing to the system than a bath and thus may take longer for the body to recover from so may be advisable to avoid close to a race. Epsom salts i would think be ok as it helps calm the nervous system. I would suggest to avoid any major stretching after either as it may lower the muscle tone to much.

Yea I use the sauna and Epsom salts regularly and I have noticed that the sauna lowers the muscle tone quite a bit to the point where it’s no point in sprinting the next day so I do tempo now after sauna days. As far as Epsom salt baths when I do that my muscle tone is not lowered as much and on the plus side it makes me horny, and a bit aggressive in the morning. I can definitely sprint the day after Epsom salt baths.
