How do toxins affect me?
Ignoring body toxins can cause poor health, illness and disease.
Today's lifestyles do not support the body's ability to naturally
remove toxins. The body's immune system has been compromised through
the accumulation of toxins. It is important that toxins be removed
regularly to insure and maintain good health.

How do they remove toxins from my
body?
Eastern medicine has long held that the body is connected by
meridians and that access to these meridians causes a flow of energy
(chi) through the acupuncture points on the outside of the body. If
we stimulate an acupuncture point it will activate energy (chi) in
the body corresponding to internal points thus bringing strength to
weak areas of the body. The foot is considered the second most
sensitive area of your body next to your heart. The intelligence of
your body will naturally send toxins as far away from the heart as
possible for protection. That means toxins and decontaminates are
collected in the lower portion of your body, at your feet. The
combination of herbs, saps and other natural ingredients first;
tenderly warm and slightly open the acupuncture points in the soles
of the feet then allow the pads to gently draw toxins from the body
into the pad.

Are they safe to use?
They do not deliver any chemicals to the body. They are only topical
and draw toxins out of the body. You ingest nothing therefore they
are completely safe. Nevertheless, we recommend that you discontinue
use if any allergic reactions occur. Our foot patches were tested
and certified safe and with non detectable heavy metals by FDA lab
certification and ISO 9001 for quality.

Do I need to follow a special diet
while I use the foot pads?
There is no need for a special diet. We recommend that to help flush
the toxins and heavy metals etc. you look at your diet, exercise
regularly and drink plenty of water.

How often should I use Detox foot
pads?
It is recommended that they be used for at least one week for
complete cleansing. You will know how your detoxification is
progressing by the color of discharge on the pad. As the pad
diminishes in colorization you will know that the detox is coming to
an end. The length of time for this to happen varies with each
individual. Some will detox relatively quickly others much longer
depending upon life styles, immune system fatigue, and other
variables.
top
Can I use them on only one foot?
Yes, you may do that but as you study the
Reflexology Foot Map you will see that the liver point, for
example, is located in the same place on both feet. If you were
detoxifing the liver it would be most beneficial to apply a pad to
both feet at the liver point. Also for balance it is wise to have
both feet involved in the detox process.
top
Do the foot pads contain
chemicals?
No, they are 100% natural ingredients and none of the ingredients
enter the body. The ingredients merely stimulate and draw from the
inside out.

How long has the product been in
existence?
Wood sap products for body cleansing purposes have been in existence
since 1999. Our combination of herbal and wood ingredients was
introduced in 2003 and is having phenomenal success in Asia and
Europe. It is even a newer product to North America.
top
Can I apply pads to a backache?
Yes, There are two ways other than to the feet that you can apply
detox pads. If you study the acupuncture chart you will see there
are points all over your body that correspond to various internal
organs. These points are located specifically over a meridian flow
so that the stimulation of the herbs can be sent directly to any
pain or weak organs. If you have specific joint or muscle pain you
can apply directly over the area for temporary relief.
top
Can they ease pain caused by gout,
arthritis and rheumatism?
Yes! Users from around the world have received temporary pain
relief. Pads are not a cure for maladies but can act as an efficient
relief from pain caused by them.
top
Can I reuse the pads?
The pads are for single use only. Once the pad is activated by the
resonance in the foot and toxins release onto the pad, any reuse
would not be as potent or hygienic.
top
Are there any side effects?
Aside from allergies to the ingredients used, no side effects have
been noted.
top
Why do my joints hurt even more?
Each of us responds to our healing process in different ways. You
may experience a form of healing crisis. Users experiencing this are
likely to have chronic problems. Reflex points will act to assist
your body in its recovery process. If this is the case you will find
the discomfort is tolerable and it will disappear in a day or two
with continued use of the pad.
top
Why do I feel tired?
You may require more sleep as your body begins to release toxins.
top
What are the benefits?
Detoxifying may improve your circulation, aid in the elimination of
waste and increase the movement of lymphatic fluids. This may create
feelings of vigor, easing of muscle and joint problems, improved
immune system, and better sleep.
top
How long should I use the foot
pads?
Effects may occur within a few days (one or two pads per foot). You
can use them as long as you see the need and have results. When
toxins have been removed it is common to have no discharge or
discoloration into the pad.
top
Sometimes my pads remain dry. Does
this mean they are not working?
The pad has two main purposes, the most important being its
relationship to its emission of Far Infrared energy. This energy
stimulates circulation, healing and removal of toxins from various
parts of your body. This will stimulate your excretory organs to
speed up their function. Those organs include the skin, lungs,
kidneys, liver, bowels and bladder. Most of the detoxification that
occurs through these regular channels only increases. When the pads
do not get completely wet, it does not mean the product is not
working, it just means your body is not excreting any excess fluid
from the part of the body on which you are wearing them. In creating
the pads, one of the goals was to allow the pads to stay dry as long
as possible because once they are wet; they cannot emit the Far
Infrared energy.
top
What causes the pads to be sticky
when they are wet?
When the pads get sticky, it is the result of the starches used in
the pads to absorb the moisture. The toxins released are not causing
the stickiness.
top
How do they help to cleanse my
lymphatic system?
Toxins tend to collect in the extra cellular fluid of the lower
extremities. In a healthy, physically active person who exercises
regularly, these toxins would be taken up by the lymphatic system.
When the lymphatic system gets sluggish and overburdened, everything
backs up. As toxins are released, the burden on the lymphatic system
is reduced in a gentle and effective manner. This process supports
the optimal functioning of all the digestion and elimination organs.
top
Can I use the pads if I sleep less
than 8 hours?
You can apply them before bedtime. It is best to wear them when you
are relaxed and off your feet. Ultimately you should wear them while
sleeping, because it is easier for your body to release toxins while
your body is deeply relaxed. It is ok to walk on the pads, but we
recommend removing them upon rising, as they may be moist.
top
Is there anything that will
enhance their effectiveness?
It is wise to wash the site of application, to remove lotions, oils
or anything that will block the pores. Soaking your feet in warm
water can enhance circulation and aid in opening your pores. You may
want to wear socks if your feet get cold. The pads are activated by
your body heat and normal skin moisture. Be sure to drink plenty of
water and assure good contact between foot and pad.
