It’s amazing to think that a machine that treats your feet can, in the process, treat your entire body as well.

Such is the case with body detoxification foot baths. At first, it’ll be like a trip to your favorite beauty parlor where they will pamper you with a foot spa session. However, a body detoxification foot bath is a foot spa of a different kind… not only will it relax your feet, it will also purify your entire body of unwanted toxins that may have built up throughout the years.

As I said, it’s amazing.

Body detox foot baths trace their roots from the principles of acupuncture and the science of reflexology. There are several pressure points at the soles of your feet that, when stimulated, will affect the other parts of your body. These foot baths are meant to stimulate these pressure points for outstanding results.

How are the pressure points stimulated, exactly?

Detoxification foot baths often come with brass and stainless steel electrodes that will fill up the water with ions. The ionized water will thereafter enhance the body’s bio-energy, an electromagnetic flux which the body produces which is also called the “chi” in Chinese parlance. The chi will travel through the pressure points at the soles of your feet to the different parts of the body resulting in a holistic experience that’s truly relaxing, absolutely rejuvenating and thoroughly cleansing.

Body detox foot baths are said to improve the following aspects:

• stamina
• vitality
• sexual prowess
• smoothness of skin
• mental health
• memory
• bladder control
• liver’s wellbeing
• heart’s condition
• immune system
• body’s toxin-cleansing processes
• others

What is exactly required of you when taking a detox foot bath?

Just your time, basically. You’d have to spend around 30 minutes per session, sitting on a chair and dipping your feet on the foot bath. The foot bath will then align proper settings, including the water’s ionization level. Just relax as the ions work on your feet (and the rest of your body) and you’ll be good to go.
For specific expectations, experts may require several sessions of body detoxification foot baths, often lasting 10 to 15 visits.

Occasionally, you will see the color of the water change during the course of a session, from crystal clear to brownish. Don’t be alarmed. The brownish color is actually the impurities released by the 2,000 spores at the sole of your feet. These are the toxins removed from your body. Some people love it when this happens, as they have visual and immediate proof of the sheer efficiency of body detoxification foot baths.
