Ionic Foot Bath
What is an Ionic Foot Bath?
An Ionic Foot Bath is a foot soak where you immerse your feet into water that has been charged with positive and negative electrolytes (ions). The electrolytes help to draw toxins out of the body, through your feet. This is accomplished through the transfer of positive and negative electrolytes in the body and their opposite numbers in the water.
How does it work?
The way that ionic footbaths work is through electrolysis. The ionic foot detox machine functions by sending a direct current through one end of the array, that is placed in the tub and through the water (which has salt added for conductivity), and back through the other end of the array. The ionizing machine works to ionize the foot bath water.
This process gives the hydrogen in the water a positive charge. The positive charge attracts the negatively charged toxins in your body. The ions in the foot bath water hold a charge that enables them to bind heavy metals and toxins in your body, similar to how a magnet works. This allows the toxins to be pulled out through the bottoms of your feet.
