Purpose of a Foot Detox
Anyone who would like to improve their overall health and well being may stand to benefit from detoxification. A Foot Detox session consists of the client soaking their feet in the ionic spa for approximately 30 minutes while ionization takes place effectively and safely stimulating the body’s own natural detoxification.
What do the Colors Mean?
There is some controversy over what happens to the water during a detox session. Sales people like to push the fact that the water changes from being clear to being quite dirty looking after a typical 30 minute Foot Detox session due mostly to the toxins being pulled out through the feet. Skeptics will quickly point out that the water will change color regardless of whether or not a persons feet are in the water. Experiments will confirm that this is true. The process of electrolysis and the ionic reaction that takes place will produce a color change. This reaction is influenced by whatever ionic particles are in the water. Different water from different regions, filtered water, biological contaminants from a persons feet or the container, will all influence what you see.
Proponents of detoxing with an ionic foot bath will not let that skeptics negate the positive effect experienced by so many people over recent years. When it comes to alternative medicine, not everything we experience has been proven or accepted by conventional western medicine. If it were, we would be a much healthier and happier society and much of the pharmaceutical industry would be out of work.
Paying attention to the color changes will give an experienced Foot Detox practitioner an inside look as to what areas of the body the ionic energy is focusing on. The practitioner will learn to look past the typical change that will occur with a certain water type and pay closer attention to the subtle and sometimes not so subtle colors that are unique to the individual detox session.
