ionic footspa and other things.

Just some thoughts on the ionic footspa and other things.

A couple of months ago I basically decided to try 3 different things to tryand combat my electrosensitivity that I hadn't tried before: medication, the bioprotect card, and an ionic footspa. And thankfully I've had some positive results.

When visiting my doctor for a problem unrelated to my electrosensitivity, Ihad been around that time thinking about the immune system as a source of the esens problem, so I thought i'd ask him to set up an appointment with an immunologist. Now I knew that meeting an immunologist could potentially be a total waste of time, but I said I'd try it anyway. However my doctor said that I should go and see a neurologist, that my problem may be more related to a nervous system problem. Despite my protestations and desire to firstly see an immunologist, I eventually went along with what he wanted, so Iended up seeing the neurologist.

Surprisingly, the neurologist actually took me and my esens problem seriously, despite never having heard of it, and when I told him that severe agitation was one of my symptoms, he speculated that it may be some kind of nervous system agitation that is going on for one of my symptoms. I wasn't so sure, and discussed my other symptoms. Anyway, he offered to put me on some medication that helps nervous system problems such as agitation (It's a drug called Lyrica, that is a form of pregabalin (see here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregabalin), and is used to treat things such as nervouls pain in diabetics and Fibromyalgia), but was honest in his assessment that he didn't know the cause and that it was a longshot. Despite my being wary about taking medication for this kind of thing, I decided to take a punt and try it.

Around the same time I decided to buy a Bioprotect card, and a couple weekslater I purchased an ionic footspa off ebay (i.e. I decided to go down theCharles route of things, given all his hooha about these in recent times!). Now, the footspa was one of those cheap (relative to the expensive Ioncleans ones) ones from China, but I didn't have the dosh for the more expensive models, so I just said I'd give the cheaper model a go.

Now I know I should have tried these things individually to test their affect separately, but I didn't want to wait around, and so tried all three at roughly the same time. And I have had some positive results. While I am notcured or healed, my resistance to emfs is stronger, and i can stay in wifiareas a lot longer than before. Some of my symptoms, such as burning/stinging gums, white spots/ulcers on gums, agitated eyes, and sore throat still persist, but are nowhere near as persistent or strong, and the time I can spend around emfs before symptoms arise is a lot longer. And the agitation has definitely eased. I tested it out a couple of times in strong wifi areas(wifi is my main enemy!) and I could stay in these areas for far longer than before before some symptoms arise.

So to summarize, I definitely haven't `healed' or got rid of the electrosensitivity, but I have definitely got better or more resistant. What level ofinfluence the footspa or medication have had individually I do not know. (I have had about 15- 20 sessions so far with the footspa, with an advised 3week break after 12 sessions). I am going to stop taking the medication for a while to see what affect that has, and I have to go back to the neurologist to discuss things.

That's just my input into the ionic footspa debate, among other things. I generally agree with Marc's and other's viewpoint that everyone's different,and what works for one may not work for another. And I obviously don't recommend rushing out trying any medication without proper medical advice.

Hello Sean,

be aware that the footspa takes out the bad stuuf, but also the good stuff.

So you must compensate very well, with a good multivitamind and Calcium among others.

We have found, that by using distilled or demineralized water is a bit more agressive and pulls out even more.
