I'm not so sure about that Lee. The lower arm is, I think, aluminium which conducts heat extremely efficiently. The subframe is a massive metal structure which will also absorb heat intended for the balljoint. If a naked flame is being considered, isn't there a risk of destroying the joint's rubber boot?

That's a massive job. Why do folk consider it preferable to buying the puller I suggested (for the price of a tank of fuel) which will guarantee to release the joint in a few minutes (I've done it myself)?
