What is Foot Detox?

This article is going to be about the theory behind foot detox. The basic premise behind it is that the toxins are extracted through the bottom of the foot. Detoxifying in this way relies only on passivity in the patient, there are two main methods on the market. One method is the detox foot patch which is like a large sticky plaster that you apply to the bottom of your foot just before you go to sleep at night. In the morning when you wake up the detox foot patch will have partially detoxified your body as you have slept.

The second method is the foot detox spa. The principle here is exactly the same of extracting the toxins from the feet. Small electrodes are fitted to the base of the unit. You place warm water inside the unit and put your feet in. Then you relax. This electrodes unit will then release positive ions into the water. The negative toxins are extracted from the soles of your feet by the positive ions in the water.

The proof that the methods actually working is provided by you vividly. This is in the form of discoloration. There will be major changes in the color of both the used water from the detox foot bath and the foot detox patch that has been removed from the sole of the foot in the morning.

Those skeptics who believe that the product is a con, say that the discoloration is caused by an ingredient in the detox foot patch and has a built-in element of the foot bath. Advocates of the detox foot patch and baths depart from this view.

Although there is always going to be skepticism about alternative medicines, there is a particularly fierce opposition to these methods of foot detox. Both sides of the argument have undertaken to scientifically test the theories of foot detox. They have also scientifically tested both of the products outlined above. The supporters and the opponents each have their own particular results. Not surprisingly both sides have differing opinions. If you want to know decidedly if these products work, why not give them a try.
