Foot detoxification : Secure a healthy body with relaxed mind
Article by Shaily Brown
In the ancient times, many monks and saints used to travel miles without any transportation barefooted. In order to rejuvenate and relax their feet, they would practise foot detox procedure. They used to take hot water and dip their feet into it for a significant amount of time. It would energise them and boost their wellness after some time. As a result, pain and swelling used to heal and subside. The Romans and the Greeks used to practice public baths for detoxification of the body. Adding certain herbs in the hot water can add to the health benefits associated with detoxification. Today, with the advancement in the healthcare industry, the process of detoxification can be done with the help of effective and efficient procedures for energy and relaxation.
Foot spa: A new age detox procedure
The electrolysis is considered as one of the best procedures used for detoxification. The ions produced in this process can help in eliminating harmful chemicals and toxins by attaching to them and drawing them out of the body. Detox foot spa is a portable machine used for cleansing the body. It contains a tub for filling hot water and is provided with electrolyte solution to add. It is a known fact that our body is exposed to lots of pollutants, toxins, chemicals, and impurities on a daily basis. These particles tend to interfere with the normal working of our body’s systems. They can enter our body through the drinks we take, the air we breathe, and the food that we eat. Our skin can be one of the best entries for these chemicals get into our body through the pores. The feet can have a lot of nerve endings and pores through which these toxins and harmful chemicals can enter the body.
The awareness towards the benefits and importance of detoxification has encouraged more and more people to opt for regular sessions at foot spa and salons. Experts suggest that lack of regularity in cleansing the body can build up the levels of toxins and impurities. It can lead to health problems such as heart problems, vascular clogging, atherosclerosis, pain, and other illnesses. The immune system of our body is the one that is most affected due to these impurities, which ultimately can make us susceptible to various viral and bacterial infections. So, detoxifying your body twice or thrice a year can ensure a good health and well being.
Detoxification for a healthy life
With the help of foot spa, it will only take about half an hour to one hour for a complete body cleansing. You just need to put your feet in the tub filled with hot water and add the electrolyte powder. The rest is done by the ions that can attach to the oppositely charged toxins and draw them out of the body through pores of the skin. As a result, the colour of the water changes to dark yellow as impurities react with the ions. This foot detox treatment ensures a stress-free life for you with a light and relaxed feeling after the session.
You can feel stress-free, light, and relaxed after the detox session.

People love the effects of ionic detox foot baths; they find themselves more relaxed and relieved of tension and stress. But what is an ionic foot bath and how does it work? One example would be to go to a foot spa session provider and experience a detox foot bath session for an average fee of about -. Many chiropractors, Physicians, beauty salons some health food stores provide this service. Or you may purchase your own unit.But what happens during the ionic foot bath session?
I will try to explain as simply as possible given that this technology is cutting edge and it would require a lengthy explanation. So I’ll stick to the basic facts so as not to confuse the issue.A Detox Foot Bath operates through a process called electrolysis. This is done by generating the proper amount of DC current in the foot bath water causing the molecules of H2O to divide producing negative and positive charged particles. These charged particles are called ions. Once the negative ions are present in the water, the body absorbs these ions through a process called osmosis.
So what is osmosis? A simple explanation of osmosis for the application of electrolysis would be the method in which a charged particle can pass through a membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. In other words this is the method in which the ions in your body may become equalized when exposed to an Ionic foot bath. Because people have more positive than negative ions an Ionic foot treatment will theoretically equalize the amount of negative and positive ions in the body.
If this is accomplished the person Will be in what is called a state of [CHI]. Another term for the word chi when referring to the body would be a state of total harmony and balance. It is an ancient philosophy that when the body is in a state of Chi, this is when the body can best heal itself. A detoxified body is a healthy body and a healthy body can heal itself. So what is a negative ion?
A negative ion is an atom that has lost or gained one or more electrons causing it to become negatively charged. This negative ion is smaller than most molecules which allow it to be easily absorbed by the body through the process of osmosis. Negative ions are produced by the ion field that is present by placing an electrically charged array of electrodes into the water during a foot bath session. The Ionic Oasis Foot Spa generates millions of these negative ions during the foot bath session. This causes the body to absorb as many negative ions as possible.
You could compare this process to a fully charged battery. When it has been fully charged it can not absorb anymore energy because the battery has equalized the negative and positive properties contained in it, and has absorbed as much energy as it can store.The foreign matter in a person’s body such as free radicals, harmful chemicals, heavy metals, parasites, and an endless list of other harmful agents cause many health concerns.It can be very beneficial to ones health to be able to reduce or eliminate these substances. These impurities contain a positive charge, and the negative ions is seeking an opposing or in this instance a positive molecule or particle to attach to. Once attached to these foreign substances they are neutralized then the body can readily identify them and eliminate them naturally through its own natural processes.Some of the impurities are transferred through the feet during the detox foot bath session however; once a person has absorbed such a high amount of negative ions their body begins to eliminate these toxins naturally over a period of days.
HOW THE FOOT SPA WORKSThe array goes into the water with the feet, and the power supply delivers a small amount of direct current into the array. When used for feet, this array in a container of water is the ionic foot bath. The electrical charge causes the molecules of the metals within the array, in combination with the water and other elements in the water, to divide thus generating positive and negative ions. This also produces small amounts of oxygen and hydrogen to be released into the air. While you are being treated at the foot spa by the ionic foot bath this is part of the chemistry that takes place when you divide the molecule H2O. When experiencing the detox foot bath, you will see the water change color as the electrical current, water, and magnetic field interact with your feet. While the water would change color by itself, the colors are noticeably different with feet in the foot spa and from one person compared to another person.
