The Ionic Detox Footbath
The Ionic Detox Footbath form of detoxification is probably the only type that has no unpleasant side effects such as nausea, migraines and the other discomforts associated with fasting and blood purification treatments. It is also more convenient then an enema as all it requires is for you to stand in a tub of electrically charged water that it is connected to an ionic detox machine such as IonCleanse (TM) and watch the toxins be pulled out of your body through whatever part of your skin is contacting the charged water.
Basically this process is an oxygen treatment. It is all about flooding the body with oxygen using ions and diffusion so that microbes die before they can harm you.
AC electricity is converted to low power DC electricity that flows through an electrode system (usually panels) that sit in the footbath. The electricity and the metal combine to split the water molecule into H+ and OH- ions. These ions travel through the body, neutralize oppositely charged particles and through powerful osmotic pressure pull those neutralized particles out of the body through whatever skin surface is in contact with the water.
The process itself is painless yet also astounding. People who stand in the tub of water often watch it turn from orange to yellow to a sludgy brown in no time. Saponic type bubbles that look like liquid fat might also appear. This residue in the charged water are the accumulated toxins that have been pulled by the electric charge out of the person’s body. When you look down into the tub of water you literally see your own toxins swirling around your feet. Sometimes the results smell quite high and are gross enough to encourage people to eat better and exercise more.
What we have, therefore, are free negative and positive ions circulating in a water solution (the physical body is a water solution), and occasionally combining to form H2O2, otherwise known as hydrogen peroxide. When free hydrogen, free oxygen and various combinations of both form they create an inhospitable environment for any type of organism that thrives in an anaerobic (oxygen-deprived environment) such as bacteria, yeast and viruses. It is the force of osmosis that brings the toxins downwards into the water. So in essence, standing in a detox foot tub like this is the equivalent of infusing your entire body with oxygen.
The great thing about this process is that it only takes a couple of minutes. The lack of side effects is also great. Perhaps one of the most powerful detoxification therapies you can do is to fast or have enemas in conjunction with an ionic detox footbath.
