Description
The Ionic Foot Detox Spa uses a low current, low voltage signal to produce positive and negative ions in the foot bath water. These ions are then absorbed through the feet and act as antioxidants, neutralizing free radicals in the body. This process aims to stimulate the body's natural detoxification systems and create a positive cellular environment for detoxification. Reflexology principles suggest that the feet are connected to all vital organ systems and natural detoxification pathways. Free radicals, which can be dangerous to biological systems, are often stored in the body and can lead to diseases such as cancer. The negative hydrogen ions in the foot bath act as supercharged free radical scavengers, helping to eliminate them from the body.
HOW IT WORKS
The Ionic Detox system produces positive and negative ions in the foot bath water. It produces a low current, low voltage signal and sends it through the array submerged in the foot bath water. The current in the array creates ionization through a process known as electrolysis.
Electrolysis breaks down the H2O (water) molecule and produces a negative hydrogen ion (H-). These negative ions are then absorbed through the feet by osmosis. The foot serves as an excellent conduit for the whole body. The principles of reflexology outline how the feet are connected to all the vital organ systems and natural detoxification pathways.
Toxins that are stored in the body often fall into the biomolecule species of free radicals. A free radical is a molecule that has lost an electron making them extremely unstable and reactive. Free radicals can be extremely dangerous to biological systems because they rupture bonds in cells biomolecules. If a free radical reacts with a biomolecule, it typically steals an electron from an atom and leaves the biomolecule missing an electron, thereby becoming a new free radical. That creates a chain reaction that proliferates free radicals, rupturing chromosomes and cell membranes. Recent studies suggest that several disease states including certain forms of cancer, may be attributable to free radicals.
Once the negative hydrogen ions are introduced to the body, they essentially act as an antioxidant. Antioxidants, like Vitamin C, lose electrons easily. It is this process that neutralizes free radicals. Negative hydrogen ions act as supercharged free radical scavengers. Once a free radical is neutralized, the bodys natural detoxification process can easily eliminate it.
The ultimate goal of an ionic foot detox is to stimulate the bodys own natural detoxification systems and create a positive cellular environment that will assist the body in detoxifying naturally.
