A metal coil is placed in the water and is attached to a machine which emits a pulse of electricity. This is a weak electric current and is not painful.When the electric current is pulsed through the salt water, the water splits into positive and negative ions. These ions in the salt water are attracted to the ionic compounds in your body which are not of benefit to you such as pesticides, preservatives, and heavy metals. Some of these toxins are pulled out from your body through the pores of your feet. Your feet have over 4,000 pores and they are the largest in the body. This makes the foot an ideal modality for detoxifying the body.Other ions are transported throughout the body via the circulatory and lymphatic system. The ions from the foot bath system neutralize oppositely charged toxins in the cells that are normally slow to exit the body. Through this process, all the bodys organs become energized and stimulated to function optimally. The body then rids itself of these toxins through normal urination, elimination, and sweating.Salt baths as a means of detoxification and healing have been used for millennia by different cultures around the world, such as the Ayurvedic tradition of India and the ancient Roman bath houses. The idea is that the salt draws out toxins via osmosis and diffusion. Swimming in the ocean is a natural form of ionic detox, the pulsed electric current from the coil amplifies the effect to an even greater degree. Using an electric charge to split water into ions as a healing modality is a relatively new concept.

The modern technological approach to this method of detoxification can be traced to the work of Dr. Royal Rife.Is the water brown because of toxins?During the foot bath, the water begins to change color naturally because of the chemical reaction between the electricity and the salt water, not because of toxins. The debris that begin to form in the water are the toxins.Does the ionic foot bath remove heavy metals?In a 2008 study by Center for Research Strategies (crsllc.org), 31 participants underwent ionic detox two times per week for 12 weeks.

The average blood arsenic level decreased 24% from 4.6 ppb to 3.5 ppb. Cancellation fees: We are reserving resources and time for you. Please give us at least 24 hours notice if you cant make it.
