Detox Footbath

My acupuncturist who has treated me for EMF and other sensitivities and allergies has recommended I do Epsom salt foot baths for 20 minutes each day. He said it helps detox after the treatments. I have been doing them for over a year and find I can skip a couple days, but if I skip about 5 days I start to feel worse. Then if I do one I immediately feel better. I also notice if I'm feeling particularly bad, my feet absorb all the Epsom salt and there is none left after the 20 minutes. Most times there is some left. I've never had an adverse reaction and it is cheap compared to other detoxproducts.

I agree about the comment regarding far infrared saunas; I was really excited when I first read about them, but then had the chance to test one out, and the magnetic and electric readings were very high for someone whose veryconcern is that!

Yep - they give you sea salt and the machine says to add salt until  

the meter says stop. It needs to have a way to pass the current to  

your body and the salt does the trick. However - as you know if there  

is IRON in the water it goes red - - it all depends on the minerals  

that are in the water the determins the color.



But - if you use distilled water with pure salt - the water stays  

crystal clear. So - don't think that the toxins are coming out of  

your body as a colour. That is a marketing gimic I think.



Plus - if you are EHS - you don't want to be pumping electricity into  

your feet. Detox with other things that are chemical oriented. .



And beware of the far infrared sauna with ehs, - I bought one and the  

magnetic fields are very high - it's like being beside an electrical  

pannel. It removes the mercury in the sweat - but it's a yin yang  

thng. Better to detox in a steam room or sweat lodge.

hi, Andrea,
 
i am a big fan of epsom salts baths and i like baking soda baths too.  note tho that when i first began the epsom salts baths it caused the firey burning, like Joni and i were discussing happened with homeopathy.  i have had this same firey burning feeling with a number of things which i have tried, including use of an infrared mouse for my computer.  significant improvement always follows this reaction, but it is far from pleasant at thetime.  only homeopathic caused the burning for more than a short period (minutes or a couple hours)tho.  i mention this because many might try the epsom salts, get the burning, and never go there again.  i consider the baths a large part of my treatment.

Andrea,
How much Epsom Salts do you use in the footbath?
How hot is the water? (medium/hot/very hot?)

Regards,
John.
