Detox Patches – Cleaning From The Outside In
A Detox patch provides outer to inner cleansing and detoxification. The detox
patch can be used on any part of the body, preferably in areas that draw perspiration.
The preferred area for their application is the foot. According to Chinese medical
knowledge, the human body has over 360 acupuncture points, with more than 60 of
these acupuncture points being found on the soles of the feet. When the blood
circulates to the soles, the detox patch can absorb toxins released from the acupuncture
points. After just one night of body detox, there are significant changes to the
smell and color of the pad (from brown to grayish black) reflecting the amount
and degree of toxins that are extracted from the body.
There should be a visible reduction to this stain and change of color with
regular use of the detox patch. If you doubt the connection between the sole
of the foot with internal organs, there is always this simple experiment. If
you are not allergic to garlic, cut a garlic clove in half and rub the fresh
garlic side on the sole of your foot for approximately 45 seconds. Within a
few minutes, you should be able to detect a garlic taste in your mouth.
While it is most common to place the detox patch on the bottom of your feet,
they may also be placed other parts of the body with only a few exceptions.
It is recommended that you keep the patch on the body for 4 to 8 hours. If using
the patch on your feet it is suggested that socks be worn to prevent accidental
removal while you sleep. Experts feel that the detox patch should only be used
for a period of thirty days. After this initial cleansing period, simple maintenance
is recommended every two to three weeks.
When detox patches are placed on the skin, the natural herbs and ingredients
begin to emit infrared energy. This is a natural energy that the body will use
to heal, repair and balance itself. This energy is needed more than ever in
today's world to counter the invasive effects of our environmental toxins, as
well as daily stress, injury and the aging process. Everyday we inadvertently
accumulate toxic and unwanted matter inside our bodies, in our bones and muscles,
in our fat and in our organs. Physicians have known for centuries that health problems can result from the
accumulation of foreign substances in the body and we are exposed to toxins
and chemicals daily from the food or water that we consume. Over-eating fatty
or processed foods, the air that we breathe and usage of alcohol, tobacco, caffeine
and drugs are all just a scratch of the surface. Another concern is the mercury content of fish and those of us who have had
dental procedures using mercury amalgams. Our bodies eventually become flooded
with toxins and we will eventually feel lethargic, perhaps lacking energy or
focus. Our immune systems may struggle preventing us from fully recovering from
common ailments or medical procedures. The natural detoxification of the body
through the liver, kidney and lower gastrointestinal tract will become sluggish
and physical symptoms of toxin buildup may include dark circles under the eyes,
rashes, green or yellowish skin tone and weight gain. Some reports have even
indicated that the human body can carry up to five pounds of additional weight
from toxin buildup alone. Ailments such as stomach/gastrointestinal discomfort,
headaches, increased incidences of allergies and fatigue may be experienced. There is no clear way to eliminate all of the chemical agents that are causing
toxicity and disease but we must attempt to detoxify our bodies at least at
the same rate they are being contaminated. Thorough and periodic cleansings,
using means like detox patches or detox diets may be necessary to get our body
back into balance and break up long-term congestion.
