Ionic Foot Spa Detox – For Real??

Hi there folks.

Just a quick note  for everyone about these ionic foot spa detoxes that are popular at present. I have been asked about them a lot in the last few weeks and I thought I would set a few things straight.

These are NOTHING like the NES system and are such a far cry from what the NES system is and does it is laughable! The NES system is far superior in all it does and I will explain why.

Basically these things put forth the notion that they “Detox your body through the feet”. This is not entirely accurate, although they do leach some toxicity from the skin in the feet. You see your body is always ridding itself of toxins, if it did not you would die! When you do a detox, you enhance this natural process and allow more energy to go to it therfore creating a stronger effect. You body excretes toxins via the urine, faeces and sweat glands in the skin, nasal mucus and bronchial sputum as well as in expired breath. In extreme cases it can be vomited out also. This is what your liver, kidneys, lymphatic system and spleen, blood etc are all about among other functions.

You already are losing toxins through the bottom of your feet as this is a dumping off point for the body. The spa doesn’t magically make them go there, if this were the case you would die from such a massive movement of toxins in the system. The spa DOES NOT boost the excretion of these toxins it merely indicates they are there and they are leached via ozmosis through the skin. Whether or not you place your foot in a spa is irrelevant, you would shed these toxins anyway! It is a bit of a gimick…you can achieve a similar result for around $1.50 using 3-4 table spoons of epsom salts and the same amount of bicarbonate of soda in your bath! Even the foot detox pads do the same thing and cost about half as much as seeing someone for a foot detox.

How does this differ from the detoxification effects of NES?  Well, NES deals with your atomic structure at the quantum level..it is information that tells your atoms how to arrange and behave thus creating your various bodily systems and structures. When the NES infoceuticals ( Drops ) induce detox it is because the area/s being worked upon or re-energized have begun to work properly again and the body is ridding itself of any impurities that inhibit proper functioning. These are excreted via the systems I mentioned above.

If you really want to help get rid of toxins during a detox period or the like, visit your naturopath for a Chelating Compund. This is a substance/s that help bind these toxins into new compounds that are EASILY excreted by the body. This is far more useful to you than a foot spa and cheaper too! That’s not to say they are useless, they are quite relaxing and do help draw out toxicity sitting in the skin, but they are not even remotely close to the NES system nor as effective as a properly supervised professionally structured detox programme.

I hope this helps clear things up a bit for you!

Have a great day!
