About 1 percent or 3 million people of the entire American population has sweaty palms. So now you know, you and I are not the only long suffering beneficiary of this unfortunate condition. Sweaty palms originate from an overactive sympathetic nervous system or simply hyperactive sweat glands. A sufferer from sweaty palms responds to stimuli more easily than most people do and in some cases some sweaty palms literally drip sweat.
Less Invasive Treatment for Sweaty Hands
If you have lived everyday of your life conscious of the embarrassment you face and cause doing simple tasks like shaking hands or even touching your loved ones, you would obviously be looking for a cure to stop sweaty palms.
The less invasive treatment for sweaty palms or sweaty hands include medicated powders, Probanthine cream and even botox. While of course, I would not totally deem botox as totally non invasive, it is most certainly less compared to ETS, or Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy which is essentially an irreversible surgical procedure to burn or cut away the hyperactive sweat glands. There are irrieversible side effects the key of which is compensatory sweating whereby you could start sweating more profusely in you underarms, tonsure and parts of your face.
Iontophoresis treatment, highly recommended by most doctors, simply works by passing a low electric current through the surface of the sweaty areas namely your palms or sole of your feet, the electric current and mineral particles work to thicken the outer layer of skin, thereby blocking and stopping the flow of sweat. You should see positive improvement in a few days and thereafter switch to maintenance mode for every 3 weeks. Apparently no side effects have been reported since the procedure debut some twenty years ago and deemed completely safe.
The cost of the iontophoresis treatment is the main inhabitant which can easily run up to about 1000 dollars or more for the entire process over the long term, not to mention the inconvenience of the clinic visits and inflexible appointment schedules.
Homemade Iontophoresis Machine
Understanding the professional iontophoresis procedure and benefits will enable you to create you very own homemade machine easily enough. All you need is a comprehensive manual providing clear concise step by step instructions (only 9 steps actually) in creating your own homemade iontophoresis machine.
I made my very own homemade iontophoresis machine with materials easily available at the hardware store, which essentially include two or three 6V batteries, wire, alligator clips, tap water and aluminum or stainless steel containers. In fact it took me only 30 minutes to make my iontophoresis and after a one week treatment course, my palms are no longer sweaty and clammy. I am now on the maintenance phase, only doing the procedure once every 3 weeks.
