The Ionic Foot Detox: A Modality for Optimal Wellness!
Toxic load can lead to imbalances in the body that can ultimately lead to a “condition” or “disease” So the goal is to assist the body in lightening the toxic load. The ionic foot detox is one such tool.

Negative Ions for Health……The Healing Properties of the Beach:
As if we needed another reason to visit the beach, here we learn that it is good for our health! Let's see how by going back to chemistry, ions are molecules that have gained or lost an electrical charge. Negative ions are oxygen molecules with an extra negatively charged electron, while positive ions are molecules that have lost one or more electrons. Negative ions are naturally created by the water, air, sunlight and the Earth's natural radiation. The highest concentrations of negative ions are in nature, mountains, forests, waterfalls, beaches, oceans and are most prevalent around bodies of moving water. "The action of the pounding surf creates negative air ions and we also see it immediately after spring thunderstorms when people report lightened moods," says ion researcher Michael Terman, PhD, of Columbia University in New York.

Translation to our health, negative ions are good for our health (seems counterintuitive) while positive ions are damaging to our health. Positive ions are produced by electrical equipment such as televisions, microwaves ovens, etc. The highest concentrations of positive ions exist in cities, crowded places, offices, industrial areas, schools, cars, etc. From

How does an ionic foot detox work?
An ionic foot bath is similar to a regular foot bath with the addition of a small device that charges the water with ions which help to draw toxins out of your body. Negative ions supply the cells with energy and oxygen. Positive charged ions are Free radicals and other toxins that build up in the body.
We set the metal array in the foot bath and the current works to ionize the water by splitting the H2O molecules into H+ (Hydrogen) and OH- (Hydroxide) These ions act like thousands of tiny magnets in the water to create the initial draw of oppositely charged toxins in the body.
Perhaps it is easier to understand the importance of negative ions if we can list some of their benefits.
Negative ions help to purify air by attaching to the positively charged electrons in bacteria, viruses, dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, cigarette smoke, etc.
Negative ions improve overall well-being by increasing serotonin release, which alleviates depression, stress and anxiety.
Negative ions increase the flow of oxygen to the brain; resulting in higher alertness, decreased drowsiness, and more mental energy," says Pierce J. Howard, PhD, author of The Owners Manual for the Brain: Everyday Applications from Mind Brain Research and director of research at the Center for Applied Cognitive Sciences in Charlotte, N.C.
Negative ions help to revitalize cell metabolism.
Negative ions neutralize free radicals.
Negative ions help to improve the function of our respiratory tract therefore decreasing respiratory borne illness such as asthma, hay fever, colds, flus, etc.

"The action of the pounding surf creates negative air ions and we also see it immediately after spring thunderstorms when people report lightened moods," says ion researcher Michael Terman, PhD, of Columbia University in New York.
Scientist Dr Sanjay Chaudhuri MBBS BSc was commissioned to study the effects of ionic detoxification using a range of monitoring equipment, six people were tested with the genuine Aqua Detox unit while three people were tested with a placebo treatment. Blood tests were taken before and after treatment and vital signs were monitored.
Dr Chaudhury reported that blood flow increased and both pulse rates and blood pressure fell in the subjects that had a real treatment. Photographs of the blood before and after treatment seemed to indicate that there was less clumping together of blood cells after the 30 minute session.
The treatment was seen to contribute to negative red cell surface charge which in turn heightens the body’s ability to maintain free-flowing blood cells. Arterial stiffness was reduced and physical stress levels in the body fell appreciably. No obvious differences were noted in the placebo group. From aquadetoxusa.com
