Excessive sweating - hyperhidrosis
Whether it’s stress and anxiety that causes excessive sweating, or the excessive sweating itself that causes stress and anxiety, it can affect your mental health negatively.
Also known as hyperhidrosis – many of us men sweat excessively during stressful or anxious moments. It may arise during job interviews, important meetings, presentations, or can even occur during everyday activities. Excessive sweating may also just be a general problem – exacerbated by summer heat and humidity.
How Do I Know If It’s a Problem?
If you sweat profusely and typical treatments such as anti-perspirant products do little or nothing to combat the problem, then you might need to consider more advanced treatment options.
As the founder of HIMbody, I suffered from excessive sweating for years. It impacted my self-confidence and self-esteem, and no treatment option would work.
Then I came across an innovative product from he company Dermadry. Using iontophoresis (technical term for applying mild electrical current to the skin), it has very little side effects and is extremely effective.
How Does It Work?
Dermadry is the leader in this realm, and offers an amazing product that will result in marked improvement in your sweating within 2 to 3 weeks, and sometimes even within days.
Their product works as follows – there are metal pads that are soaked in water with a towel, and you place either your hands or feet on them for 15 to 20 mins at a time. Mild electrical current is applied and you may feel slight tingling, but that’s about it. You can also adjust the intensity of the current (so you can start with low settings and slowly build up your tolerance). For underarm treatment – smaller separate metal pads are supplied with their own protective fabric covering.

TIP – when starting iontophorersis treatment you will perform treatments a few times a week. Then you will only have to perform the treatment (Dermadry calls it the “maintenance” treatment) approximately once per week. But remember to keep up with the weekly maintenance treatments – otherwise the excessive sweating will come back.
Is Iontophoeresis Effective?
The term “you get what you pay for” definitely applies to this product. Although the cost may seem excessive, if you suffer from excessive and severe sweating on your feet, hands and underarms and no other treatments are effective, this is the product for you. The company offers a money-back guarantee, and if you have health benefits as part of your job it may even cover part or all of the cost.
