ANY type of Reflexology refreshes. But it is impossible to absorb Ions through the feet and have them come OUT of you to be trapped in water! If this was true what are Dialysis machines for? How many thousands the medical industry is wasting on Millions of people who need their blood cleaned! Keith Richards must have been exstaic at this find! Get a clue people!

My mother wanted me to get it done at her salon and she paid for it so i just got it done. Later that day I had energy to clean and organize that I hadn't had in over a year after having a difficult pregnancy and recently giving birth 4 months ago. Then, the next day I still had energy to paint our new house and move furniture up and down stairs. What other explanation could there be? I willbe getting another one in a few weeks!

Also, people expect to feel better after doing it, therefore they have already helped themselves(not the ionic footbath) to feel better, then after doing the foot bath they say that the foot bath helped them when in reality there is no empirical evidence supporting the baths, they also want to think that it helped them because of course they payed money for it and if it doesnt work or if they feel like it doesnt work then again they will feel like they are stupid.

Find a chiro or other holistic practitioner in your area. A single treatment is cheap, and there are some chiros who will let you have the first session free. Myself? Ive got degenerative disc disease (13 levels), was in constant pain, and suffered for 17 years with chronic fatigue. JUst one treatment ONE!!! and I literally felt 20 years younger, had energy, my back pain was significantly reduced. Anyone who says these dont work simply hasnt tried it. THEY WORK!!!!!

The first time I had it done at a chiropractor's office, my feet felt lighter, like it somehow decreased the pull of gravity. I have had one in my home for the past year and a half, I use it on a monthly basis. It gives me relief from a bunion, the bunion actually goes down in size. I donate blood on a regular basis, my blood is now a (-CMV) which is a really clean blood suitable for premature babies and people who have auto-immune disorders. In my opinion, the machine is a success for me. I have shared it with different people and the water colors vary with each person. The ion foot baths work for me.

Ionic Detoxification Baths by Sandra Talt Put simply, you feel great, sleep better, have more energy and an improved outlook on life. Ionic detoxification baths are a pleasant, non-invasive way for most people to detoxify the body. A computer program runs varying amounts of positive or negative current through a water bath. All you do is put your feet into the water and relax for 20 to 30 minutes. While you are relaxing, the water will start to change color, and in a short while, you will see sediment accumulating. Believe it or not, this sediment and discoloration is coming out of your body! How is it so? The negative and positive ions attract toxins, and pull them out of you via osmosis. That is, when the water has a higher negative charge than your body tissues, positive ions will be pulled out of you and into the water. This is good, because heavy metal toxins have a positive charge, and this is a very effective way of cleansing yourself from heavy metal and other toxins. After a few minutes, the polarity switches to positive, and negatively charged toxins will be pulled from your body. Different people produce different colors and sediments. With repeated treatments, you will see different colors and sediments coming from yourself. Sometimes an oily residue also appears on the water. The benefits of this type of footbath include detoxification, stimulation and balancing of the body’s energy meridians, and increased cellular metabolic rates and ATP production. ATP is a natural body chemical that extracts energy from your food and makes it available for numerous physiologic functions in the body. Put simply, you feel great, sleep better, have more energy and an improved outlook on life. In addition, aches, pains, and other conditions may be greatly alleviated. If you see the sludge that this treatment produces, you will have no doubt about the effectiveness of this modality! Certainly, some color and sedimentation appears in the water without a person’s feet in the footbath. However, comparisons show there is a remarkable difference in the colors and sediments seen in the water after treatment of just water, and water and feet! To learn more, visit the website www.4ebr.com to view comparison lab testing. You can have your sediment tested locally by SGS Labs, 200 W. Potter Dr., 562-2343. They can test for metals, petroleum-based substances, and volatiles such as benzene, toululene and xylene. One sample I had tested validated that there was a high amount of lead in the footbath water after the detox footbath. This was important to the client because he had worked at Red Dog Mine, and had high exposure to lead and zinc. Other testing options are before and after hair analysis and blood testing, to track changes in your toxin levels. Ionic baths are contra-indicated for people with pacemakers or other electrical devices implanted in the body, people with transplants or on medications that regulate heart rate, or leave you at serious risk if the blood level of the medication drops due to detoxification. This might include medication for seizures, phychotropic drugs, and others. If you are pregnant or lactating, I believe it is best to forego serious detoxification, including ionic baths, since any form of detoxification will leave some toxins stirred up in your body, and toxins can cross the placenta and harm a developing baby, and cross into breast milk. People who are in weakened condition may need to use shorter time in the footbath. Most people who try the ionic detox baths feel better. Why not try it for yourself!

Ionic Detoxification Baths

Put simply, you feel great, sleep better, have more energy
and an improved outlook on life.

Ionic detoxification baths are a pleasant, non-invasive way for most people to detoxify the body. A computer program runs varying amounts of positive or negative current through a water bath. All you do is put your feet into the water and relax for 20 to 30 minutes.

No iron plates,no splitting of atoms or molecules of anything. I dont really think it fair for anybody in the business to post here as it cant be considered objective. Nor do I believe folks who have not tried it should post as its just one's opinion. This forum is to report your experiences, ordinary folk who have used it to address certain health issues. Yes, folks like me with life threatening issues will mostly try anything I guess, but my opinions on forum participation stand. Whether its a placebo effect or not, I wanna hear if it works to positively address their particular health issues. If it stands to improve our quality of life or extend it a while, we should be free to pursure that without harrassment. While its a free country and such, I wish you would bow out of participating. There are lots of other forums to corrupt. Thanx. I have emphezema, and smoked for 40 years. Anybody out there finds it helps with quitting smoking or ability to breath? Thanx again.
