"Prior to my first detox session with the AquaVida Foot Spa, I had never sweat - as in my sweat glands did not work. Heat and humidity conditions that caused others to complain and wilt, rarely affected me. I believed that I was lucky, until I learned that the body's largest organ of detoxification was the skin and that sweating was important!


Now, for the first time in 43 years, my sweat glands work! It took time to adjust to this new sensation, but I am extremely grateful as I now have hope that my body is working with me, leaving me less susceptible to the chronic disease and premature aging that are common with excess levels of toxicity.

I recognize that my situation is unique and not likely to be common to many people, but it is representative of the power and potency of the AquaVida Foot Spa detoxification system."

Why Detox?

If your body is unable to fully detox itself through the normal organs (skin, lungs, liver, large intestine, kidneys), your health, your resilience in the face of disease, falters - no matter how conscientious your diet and exercise program are.

In today's toxic world, every 'body' needs help detoxing.

 

How Do Toxins Enter the Body?

  

  • Digestive System: through the foods we eat, which today are loaded with pesticides, neurotoxins, growth hormones, antibiotics, etc.
  • Lungs: the air we breathe is full of car exhaust, gasoline fumes, tobacco smoke, coal and wood-burning fumes, etc., and are pollutants known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
  • Skin: everything that comes in contact with our skin enters the blood stream and is circulated through the body within 60 seconds. This includes all of the chemicals found in lotions, cosmetics and sunscreens.
  • Internal: Through stress and the mind-body connection, our thoughts/emotions, if negative enough for long enough, can cause our bodies to manufacture toxic chemicals that are amazingly similar to those within our enviromment.

 

 

Toxic Chemical Facts:

 

  • In 1998 US industries reported manufacturing over 6.5 trillion pounds of 9,000 different chemicals every year. (EPA 2001)
  • 167 chemicals, pollutants and pesticides were found in the blood and urine of nine adult Americans. None of the nine volunteers worked with chemicals on the job. All lead healthy lives, yet the subjects contained an average of 91 compounds - most of which did not exist 75 years ago. (Study led by Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York in collaboration with the Environmental Working Group and Commonwealth.) Study results appear in Public Health Reports (Thornton, et al. 2002).
  • Recent genome science has proven that some people have a genetic predisposition to retain toxins, including heavy metals.

 

What Can Happen if These Toxins are not Removed?

  • The aging process accelerates - from the inside out.
  • Susceptibility to illness like emphysema, COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), liver disease and lung cancer increases.
  • Free Radical activity increases, causing DNA, protein and lipid problems resulting in advanced aging, neurological disease, cancer and multiple primary tumors.
  • The body's ability to handle oxidative and high LDL cholesterol, pesticides and neurotoxins is inhibited, causing increased risk of coronary heart disease, coronary artery spasms and arterial ischemic stroke.
  • Oxidative stress occurs which affects the health of every cell of the body, leading to a wide range of degenerative diseases including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), and again, accelerated aging.

 

How Does the AquaVida® Foot Spa Remove Toxins?

 

  • Through the 2,000+ eccrine sweat glands in our feet - a higher concentration than anywhere else in the body
  • The sweat glands are stimulated to release salts, organic compounds and metabolic wastes
  • The ionization process provides stimulation to increase metabolic efficiency, improving the flow of toxins into the blood to be removed by natural urinary, gastrointestinal, lymphatic and sweat gland action.
