Ionic Detoxification Footbath

We no longer do the Ionic Detox in our office but we do refer out to our neighbor acupuncturist.

How the Detox Works

The Ionic Detoxification Footbath (a.k.a.) Ionic Spa unit detoxifies the whole body with little or no stress to the patient. Under the effect of small electric voltage and current, the array of the Ionic Spa separates positive and negative ions, which flows within the water. The negative ions will attract and attach themselves to oppositely charged toxins and tissue acid wastes, and then draw them out of our bodies through our feet sweat pores.

Test Results

Tests have shown that heavy metal toxins, such as cadmium, cobalt, lead, tin and vanadium toxins can be significantly drawn out of the body through the foot pores during the detoxification. This is the same principal as electrolysis in chemistry, which attracts metals to the negative pole.

What to Expect

Ionic Spas are a very effective method for body detoxification. Most users can expect to feel lighter and experience a greater feeling of well-being following each Ionic Spa session. Increased vitality, improved sleep, rejuvenated skin condition, pain and stress relief, and symptomatic relief from painful, swollen or deteriorating joints has also been reported.

Improvements

Many people have noticed improvements and/or remissions in one or more of the following: accidents & injuries recovery, allergies, arthritis, autism, burnout, chronic stress, cold hands and feet, fatigue, headaches, heavy metal toxicity, hypoglycemia, low energy levels, pain, reversal in the aging process, soreness, stiffness, swollen joints & tissue, tension, and weight management without dieting.

Why Detoxify?

Is Disease Caused by Toxins?

We live in a society fraught with pollutants and toxins — natural and synthetic. They exist in our air, water, food, clothing and the environments in which we live, work, play and sleep. Cigarettes, alcohol, and caffeine are also major sources of toxins. As a by-product of busy lifestyles and the increasing pollution in the environment, our bodies are encountering and storing unwanted toxins on a daily basis.

Tissue Acid Waste

Tissue acid wastes, chemicals, and heavy metal residues now build up in our body faster than ever before, resulting in a greater incidence of allergies, and mental and physical incapacitation. Pimples, rashes, dark circles under the eyes, swollen joints, yellow, green and blotched complexions often indicate a build-up of tissue acid wastes inside the body. Our bodies are depleted of crucial life-giving elements, leaving us to feel drained of energy or unable to heal naturally from illness, injury or medical procedures.

Chemical’s Increase

With the increase in the number of chemicals introduced in the last fifty years, there has been a dramatic increase in incidences of auto-immune disease, allergies and common infections. There is no coincidence in this increase. There are tens of thousands of chemicals in use today and more than a forth of these

are known to be toxic; moreover, nothing is known about their interactive effects. (Tests on body fat shows residue of hundreds of chemicals.) Metals, such as mercury, cadmium, an antimony are everywhere and impossible to avoid. Lead, for example, can block red blood cell formation.

Chemicals act as toxins that cause changes in calcium homeostasis, selectively kill cells and alter expression of gene products. Metals and chemical toxins weaken the immune system and cause increased vulnerability to viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections. In turn, our bowels, kidneys, liver, and immune system are being overloaded. Our eliminator channels have become blocked or dysfunctional. Allowing synthetic chemical toxins in our environment and because the western diet is so acid-forming and depleted of necessary nutrients.

Detox Regimen

To relieve the strain on our detoxifying organs, particularly the kidneys, liver, intestines, and immune system, it is more important than ever to maintain a detoxification regimen. The Ionic Spa is designed to relieve these strains and detoxify the body through the skin, the largest organ in the human body.

Several Ionic Spa treatments, along with dietary modification and detoxification have been shown to substantially reduce and even eliminate the conditions discussed above.

Treatment Plan

Everyone has a different goal when using the Ionic Spa in our office. If your goal is to use it for general wellness, then we recommend twice a week for 5 weeks. If your goal is for maintenance care, then once a month would probably be a good fit for you. But if you have a specific condition, then it is dependent on your age and condition. In general, every other day (age 50 and younger) or every 2 days (age 51 and older) is what gets the most noticeable results.

Caution

Treatment plans are age variant because the process does eliminate some of your needed minerals as well. Some metals, like iron, are crucial to our blood supply. The older we get the longer it takes to replenish our nutrients. So those ages 51 plus, in general, need an extra day to accept the changes the treatment will produce. A daily multi-vitamin will aid in nutrient replenishment.

The Healing Power of Water

Water is a critical resource. Water covers two-thirds of the Earth’s surface and 80% of the human body. It’s in the fluids we drink, the air we breathe, the foods we consume, and it is the medium by which we detoxify ourselves. Aside from being the well spring and sustainer of all life, it is also a living thing.

Healthy Water

Water, monitored under ionization, has electrical charge of up to five volts. Additionally, if the water is healthy, the voltage reading will fluctuate and change over time. Distilled water and reverse-osmosis water are notably absent of bio-electrical energy.

Spring water benefits

Since ancient times people have bathed in natural springs and reported experiencing healing benefit for many ailments. Resorts and health spas around the world maintain their popularity because bathing in springs — hot, cold or mineral — has undisputed therapeutic effects. Including: improved circulation, increased relaxation and, as a result, relief from symptomatic or chronic pain. The Ionic Spa ionizes water to recreate the therapeutic experience found naturally in the world’s most popular spas.

There are Hot Springs all over the world. Glenwood Springs is the closest to me that I have experienced and highly recommend. (I do not have any affiliate with Glenwood Hot Springs.)

If you can’t get to a Hot Springs, then I would recommend east coast saltwater beaches to help balance your pH levels!

How the Spa Works

Think of two magnets coming together. Each side of a magnet has a positive and a negative side which make each other want to come together. You can feel the magnets pull toward each other. This is the same as a charged atom (aka: ion & molecule). This what happens with the Ionic Spa. The spa make the water all positive which attract all the negative from your feet pores.

The ions produced by the Ionic Spa create a gentle vibration that aids the release of unwanted toxin particles through the pores on the sole of the foot. There are over 2,000 pores on each foot!

The Technology

Ion producing technology has been around for several decades. But the secret to its successful use in body detoxification is the production of positive and negative ions in the same treatment. The Ionic Spa unit, has a control head deliver an electrical current through the ionizer array (a little black box) that is placed into the water alongside the feet. Sea salt is added to the tap water to create the charged water.

The low-level direct current to the array (little black box) causes the metals within the array to generate positively and negatively charged ions by separating the oxygen and hydrogen components of water. The Ionic Spa detoxification/cleanse system allows the negative ions to attract and attach themselves to toxic substances in the body with the opposite charge.

Osmosis

Most toxins in our body are positive in charge (i.e. heavy metals ions). The Ionic Spa will conveniently neutralize and draw out the negative ions produced. In addition, the Ionic Spa pulls toxin particles through the skin and out of the body via osmosis and neutralized. The highly concentrated ion field is allowing this to happen.

pH Levels

Raising the user’s pH to a more alkaline state is due to the Ionic Spa producing negative ions. This is significant because the vast majority of people in the United States live in an acid state… their bodies contain an excess of hydrogen ions and their pH is lower than 7.45. Such people benefit greatly from exposure to high concentrations of negative charged ions. In turn, bringing their body back into a more balanced acid-alkaline state. This is very significant, because when your body is alkaline (above 7.45 pH), the cells causing many diseases, such as cancer cannot grow!

Acid level are BAD, Alkaline levels are better. Everything in moderation. Strive for 7-10 pH.

In Conclusion

The ultimate benefit and very purpose of Ionic Spa is to release the incredible power of our immune system! Every day our immune system defends us from pollution and foreign invaders, including our own cells when they mutate into cancer causing cells.

It is important to educate patients on their lifestyle and how to keep their immune system strong as part of their long term recovery plan. Because the old disease or some new one is almost always certain to re-manifest when continuing bad habits or unhealthy environment.
