How To Detox

Detox foot baths are widely used to increase both physical and mental energy, vitality and stamina while at the same time purging the body of toxins, chemicals, radiation, pollution, synthetics and other foreign material that clogs up the skin, an essential part of the body's detoxification means. Detox foot baths may aid with liver and kidney function, circulation, general metabolism, arthritis, headaches, menstrual pain, parasite cleansing and skin problems. The best results are when the baths are combined with a detox diet or a healthy diet free of processed foods, sugars, unhealthy fats and over-eating.

Having a relaxing foot detox with some detox foot baths promotes an internal cleansing through your foot by means of a relaxing bath with a wonderful variety of aromas made naturally with essential oils. Reflexology believes that each foot is actually a channel through which your body attempts to cleanse itself of toxins and heavy metals that build up throughout your body.

Toxins build up over time when your body's natural detoxification process is slowed down. Everyday the human body is exposed to toxins through our food and water supply, use of tobacco, alcohol, drugs and the air that we breathe. The result is our bodies are drained from crucial life-giving elements leaving us lethargic, lacking energy and unable to heal naturally from illness or even the most common of medical procedures.

Toxin buildup can make you ill, result in a greater incidence of allergies, alter your mood, decrease your energy level and cause weight gain. Reports have indicated that it's not inconceivable for the body to hold five pounds of weight in toxins alone. Pimples, rashes, dark circles under the eyes, swollen joints, yellow, green and blotched complexions are often strong indicators of a buildup of toxins inside the body.

With detox foot baths one can actually see the cleansing process take place as water interacts with a compound electric current and magnetic field structure returning cells to a healthy state by releasing waste that has bonded to them over the years. The excreted toxins are visible in the water that turns colors from orange (detoxifying from joints), brown (detoxifying from liver, tobacco, cellular debris), yellow-green (detoxifying from the kidney, bladder, urinary tract, female/prostate area), black (detoxifying from the liver), dark green (detoxifying from the gall bladder), white foam (detoxifying from the lymphatic system, white cheese like particles may indicate the body ridding itself of yeast), black flecks (heavy metal) and red flecks (blood clot material).

The detox foot baths are similar to the benefits of health spa or resort bathing in hot, cold or mineral springs for the positive therapeutic effects. It is said that water has an almost perfect balance of positive and negative ions. What this means is that water is considered by some to be the greatest tool for healing on this planet.

Detox foot baths are not recommended for people who are either pregnant or breast-feeding, anyone using a pacemaker or any battery operated or electrical implant, persons using heartbeat regulating medication, cancer patients currently undergoing radiation therapy or chemotherapy, type 1 diabetics, organ transplant recipients, people who experience psychotic episodes or are prone to seizures and anyone with open wounds on their feet.
