What is an Ionic Foot Bath?
The Ionic Foot Bath is a tool that utilizes ionic charges to give the body energy that promotes detoxification. These electrical currents will also help to put the body in a parasympathetic state, the rest and digest state of the nervous system. The body needs to be in the parasympathetic state to be able to detox. When we’re stuck in the sympathetic “fight or flight” state, our body is prioritizing survival and any other functions focused on optimizing health gets put on the back burner.
Other Benefits?
I would make a strong argument that the benefits go far beyond. When we look at what causes dis-ease we’re finding that it comes down to 3 main things:
Toxins
Deficiencies
Traumas
Utilizing tools like the Ionic Foot Bath will address the toxins portion of the dis-ease puzzle. And when we clear out toxins the nutrient deficiencies will start to correct because we aren’t wasting nutrients on clearing or neutralizing those toxins anymore.
The symptoms that heavy metals are connected is long but here are just a few:
headaches
brain fog
weight gain/weight loss resistance
hormone imbalances
irritiability
autoimmune diseases
neurologic diseases
immune dysfunction
rashes
And on and on. Will Ionic Foot Baths heal these ailments? No. Can it be a tool used within a protocol that clears out roadblocks that are interfering with the body’s ability to heal? Now that’s enough about that before I get in trouble with the regulatory institutes.
Who is a good candidate for an ionic foot bath?
Nearly everyone, except for those with open sores or an infection on their feet, can benefit from an ionic foot bath. The body is built to detoxify on its own. However, we are constantly bombarded by toxins, which can place added stress on the body, causing pain and dysfunction. An ionic foot bath is a safe and effective way to assist the body in detoxifying these stressors.
A few things to note:
The water is not nearly as pretty as the stuff in the picture above! As your feet sit in the charged water, the water will change colors. Most common is a dark brown. This is normal and often the colors will indicate where the detox is being prioritized in the body.
The toxins are not coming out of your feet into the water. The foot baths are enhancing your own body’s ability to detox. The toxins will move out of your own detox pathways in your body over the next 72 hours. So drink plenty of water!
Your feet will soak in the charged ionic water for 30 minutes. And generally there is added time for discussion, set up and clean up afterwards. So plan for about 45 minutes start to finish
