Detox therapy is a key to better lifestyle. Learn these easy steps to detox your entire body through your feet.
The Chinese reflexology system says that our feet have natural energy zones which are linked directly to important systems and organs in the body.
This means that the body can be detoxified and cleaned of toxins through the feet and similar zones.
Here are several ways in which you can detox your body through the feet:
IONIC FOOT BATH
This method is similar to electrolysis, which uses electrical current to create a powerful chemical reaction. The warm water can open up your pores while the salt works like an anti-inflammatory agent.
The ions from the bath are absorbed in the feet which detoxify the whole body. If the salt gets dark, it means that the method is working.
Here are several great salt detox recipes:
