Sharyn MitchellIt is always a wonderful feeling to soak your feet. It’s even better when you can be detoxing at the same time.
Why do an Ion foot detox? We pick up toxins all the time through our food, water, air, and sometimes at work, depending on what you do for a living. It will build up over time causing stress in the organs and can cause inflammation. Hence everyone can benefit from it.
During an Ion foot bath, you soak your feet for 30 minutes and an array is placed in the water, with a little salt. There is a band placed on your wrist as well so the energy flows through the body. You most likely will not feel anything during this time. If anything, you may feel a slight tingling sensation in your feet or legs.
The array is connected to a machine that generates ions in the water through a slight electrical charge, and through osmosis, they will move through the membranes of your cells. This charge will pull the toxins out. Your pores are the largest on your feet, so they are ideal for detoxing.
This action of moving ions throughout the cells in your body helps pull toxins out. Some of this you will see in the water but it continues on through out the day for 24-48 hrs., hence you should drink plenty of water during and after the foot bath.
Benefits you may see from the detox:
- Renewed energy
- Improvement in circulation
- Improved digestion
- Joint stiffness decreases
- Better metabolism
- Better focus
People Who Should Not Participate Ion Foot Detox:
- Pregnant women or those who think they might be pregnant
- If you received an organ donation, have steel plates, or a pacemaker
- If there is any broken skin on the foot
