Function
- Ionic foot baths create a spa experience,
cleansing the body of impurities such as toxins, wastes and metals
to improve the immune system and allow the body to absorb vitamins
better. Many users claim that they have improved skin tone, cured
health conditions and aided weight loss efforts by regularly using
an ionic foot bath. Users with arthritis or joint pain say that
ionic foot baths helped them by eliminating pain and increasing
their mobility and range of motion.
Theories
- The body needs at least 36 to 48 ounces of
water a day for its digestion, elimination and hydration needs.
One theory suggests that the water is never safe or clean enough
for the body, even if it's distilled, because the purification
process removes the harmonizing and beneficial properties of
water. Only after water enters the body and exchanges the vital
life force properties can the detoxification process occur. Ionic
foot baths promote detoxification and improve the body's use of
water, proponents say.
Body Chemistry
- Ionic foot baths have a high concentration
of negative ions that attract positively charged ions such as
metals and toxins in the body. The foot bath purports to bring the
body to an alkaline state, in which cancer and other illnesses
cannot thrive. Those who have a high concentration of toxins and
impurities have an acidic body, a good environment for cancer.
Color Changes
- Different manufacturers use different color
codes for identifying the impurities drawn into the foot bath. For
instance, black flecks in the foot bath indicate heavy metal
elimination, and green colors indicate impurities drawn from the
gall bladder. Blue water could indicate toxins withdrawn from the
kidneys, and red could indicate blood clots. Each person has a
unique combination of toxins in the body at any given moment, so
your biochemistry and the effectiveness of the foot bath
determines the overall success or degree of elimination during
each session.
