Ion Cleansing Foot Bath

An ion cleansing foot bath draws impurities, metals and toxins out of the body through the feet. The bath creates a neutralizing environment filled with ions, which eliminates waste from the body. The ion foot bath is used to help people who suffer from allergies, obesity, medical conditions and psychological disorders.

  1. How It Works

    • People place their feet inside a small foot bath that is charged by ions. Depending on how long a person leaves their feet in the tub, impurities are drawn out through the feet and the water changes color depending on what chemicals have accumulated inside a person's body.

    Eliminates Toxins

    • The ion cleansing foot bath cleanses the body of toxins, chemicals and acids. Many of these acids, including diacetic, lactic, acetic and carbonic, can be harmful to the body.

    Electric Effect on Cells

    • The body is made up of electric cells and when cells are unhealthy they are out of balance. As a result of the negative ions in the bath, an overall balancing effect occurs on the body. This can help to alleviate pain.

    Multiple Sessions

    • Like other homeopathic treatments, one session won't entirely rid the body of all its toxins. In order to experience the full benefits of an ion bath, people need to use them on a regular basis and should rest their feet in the bath for 30 minutes per session.

    Warning

    • For people who take certain medication or suffer from medical conditions, they should consult a naturopathic or medical doctor before using an ion cleansing foot bath. People sometimes experience dizziness and nausea after using them.
