How Does It Work?
Your session combines water, salt and a small electrical current to produce negatively charged ionic energy that cleanses at the cellular level, charges up the cells like tiny batteries, and promotes healing through the detoxification of free radicals and toxins to promote healing.
This process starts with the deconstruction of a small amount of water into its base elements of hydrogen and oxygen by the process of electrolysis. This creates negatively charged ionic energy, hence the phrase, "negative ions." This energy is pulled into the body by its energy meridians at their terminus points, which are also known as reflexology or acupressure points on the bottom of the feet, or the palms of the hands. That negatively charged energy travels throughout the body via the energy meridians. Think of them as power lines.
This is analog energy, which is the type of energy the body produces through chemical reactions at the cellular level. The energy from the water is distributed throughout the body. That negatively charged energy breaks the positive energy bond that toxins and free radicals use to attach themselves in our tissues. They float free, and are flushed out of the body by the lymphatic system through the excretory system over the nest 24 - 48 hours.
The analog energy also cleanses and stimulates the lymphatic system so it can flow freely and efficiently drain the toxins from your body.
Your immune system requires T-Cells for health. The more toxins in your Lymph System, the less T-Ce;; production can take place in it. The lower the T-Cell production, the weaker your immune system becomes and the easier you become ill.
If your lymphatic system becomes clogged and cannot drain these toxins, your immune system will be weakened to the point where you become more susceptible to constant illness because T-Cell production has been impaired or compromised.
Detoxification indicators
There are several factors that influence how the water will react as it becomes stimulated by the Ionic field generated by our Ionic Detox Foot Bath unit.
What does the changing color of the water mean?
Keep in mind that no matter how much people like to comment in regards to the color changes of the water, there is a tremendous benefit happening to the entire body. The Ionic field that the unit generates is undeniably beneficial, because Ionic fields oxygenate the blood and plasma, they permit Lymphatic fluid to drain toxins and provide a feeling of well being.
During the session, the water in the basin will always change to a brown/ orange color due to the electrolytic reaction involving the array, salt, water, minerals and impurities in the water. However, there will be added discoloration once your feet are added to the water and the reason why this occurs is that your dead skin cells, oils from your sebaceous glands, as well as your body’s own alkalinity/acidity also gets released into the water. The toxins do get released into the water from your feet and this is caused by a cellular process called osmosis. If you’ll see an unusual discoloration in the water that you’ve never seen before, then this may indicate that the ionic detox foot bath is helping detoxify certain areas in your body that have accumulated toxins more than any other area.
Below is a category list of watercolor changes during ionic detox foot bath and what they mean. You may also refer to the ion cleanse color chart.
Water Color Body Area Where Toxins Are Being Removed
Yellow/Green Kidneys, Bladder, Urinary System, Reproductive
Grey/Black Flecks Heavy Metals
Orange Joints
Brown Lungs, Cellular Debris
White/Cheese-like GI Tract, Yeast
Dark Green Gall Bladder, Liver, Stomach
Red Flecks Blood Clot Material
White Foam Lymphatic Systems
Black Liver
Keep In Mind!
Always remember that by using the ionic detox foot bath you are introducing negatively charged particles or ions into your body. The presence of these negative ions merely helps what the body does naturally to expel toxins which include urination, defecation, and sweating. So not all toxins are expelled from the pores of your feet through osmosis, in fact, if anything the toxins that leave your body via osmosis on your soles could be only a small percentage than what goes out of your extremities. Therefore, when referring to the ion cleanse color chart to determine how much toxins you have in your body, you should also consider other means and not just the changes in the watercolor. Testing the pH level of your urine, having a sample of your blood be tested in a clinic for toxicity levels, and other methods would be good in determining if the foot detox bath has done its work.
