Ion Cleanse
Negative Ions supply the body with a surplus of energy. Positive Ions deplete the body of energy. Both are unseen electrical charges. When you do a footbath, the positive ions can be pulled out of the body and replaced with negatively charged ions. You feel good after a footbath. The footbath is widely used to increase energy and purge the body of toxins, chemicals, radiation, pollution, synthetics and other material trapped in the skin layers that have clogged up the body’s systems of elimination. A Far Infrared belt is used with the footbath and can be applied to any part of the body to increase circulation and oxygenation levels while reducing inflammation. Sessions last 30 minutes.
ION Cleanse footbath is contraindicated for anyone with a pacemaker, metal implants, an organ transplant, recent or current pregnancy, or has had any type of seizures.
