Foot Soak Detox Systems

Detoxification is an increasingly popular health trend in the United States, and has long been popular in other countries. Foot soak detox baths are special basins that relax foot muscles and purportedly help rid the body of harmful toxins that may have accumulated. Generally, these baths are available online and in specialty bath and body stores.

Considerations

Before using a foot soak detox bath, it is important to understand the purpose, benefits and warnings related to foot baths. Holistic experts claim these products work to stimulate tissue and muscles in the foot. Often, foot detoxification baths employ an array of pressurized bubbles which help rid the body of dangerous toxins. Many scientists, however, disagree that detoxification through the feet is possible, and often, many detoxification bath systems will change the color of the water without the customer even putting their feet in. Nonetheless, it is important when using a foot detoxification bath system to sanitize the basin after each use, particularly if the basin is used by more than one person. Many products contain removable basins that make sanitizing the detoxification system easy.

Walter Drake

Walter Drake offers the only foot detoxification system that employs positive and negative ions. The massaging bubble foot plate stimulates the soles of the feet as ions work to remove toxins through the skin. Water warms and changes color as feet soak and body is cleansed. Products come with ionic foot bowl, storage bag, power adapter, massage foot plate, control unit and two array coils. This detox foot bath costs about $300 and can be purchased online.

Healio Health

Healio Health offers a more productive foot detox system. The manufacturer claims their foot bath determines the personal energy profile of the person soaking in the bath. The product then works to correct any errors in the energy profile while cleansing the body of any harmful toxins. Healio Health claims their foot detoxification system corrects a consumer's bio-electricity and bio-magnetic levels, eliminates toxins, restores normal cell function and increases metabolic energy. The product costs $2,000 and can be purchased online.
