1. Dunking in mikveh delivers from all afflictions, God forbid, and purifies from all impurities and from all the sins, for the mikveh pulls down the very highest knowledge and mercy (da`at w’chesed `elyon m’od).  (Likutei Moharan 56)

3. Mikveh does not harm at all.  And the doctor that says that mikveh harms, is not a doctor at all, for when the water is not too cold, then, on the contrary, dunk of mikveh is very good for health of the body, for the sweat pores are opened by this, as is known to the expert doctors. (there 123, and see Travel #8 [below], concerning mikveh)
