REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology is a type of massage that applies different amounts of pressure to the feet, hands, head and/or ears. It is believed that these areas of the body are connected to the various organs and internal systems within the body. Benefits of reflexology include its ability to stimulate nerve function, reduce pain, increase energy, boost circulation, induce a deep state of relaxation and promote a restful night’s sleep.
IONIC FOOT DETOX
The ionic foot detox machine is used to cleanse and detoxify the body by using ions and this process happens through the feet. Ions are atoms that have an electrical charge. The machine creates a flow of negative and positive ions through the body, which helps to remove toxins and impurities from the cells. This process can help to improve overall health and well-being.
When you immerse your feet in the water, the electrical current causes an ion exchange to take place. This means that positively charged ions are attracted to the negative ions in the water, and vice versa.This results in impurities being drawn out of your body and into the water. The color change indicates that something is happening on a molecular level.
