2. Are these products Safe?
There has not been a reported case of any injury since the Ionic Detox Footbath first came on the market in the 90's. However, it is always wise to purchase from an American Manufacturer who meets or complies with UL, CE, FCC, and RoHS standards. That way you can be assured of both quality, and safety.
3. Who should not use a Detox Footbath?
They are not recommended for pregnant or nursing mothers, persons with pacemakers, implanted organs, epilepsy or open wounds on their feet. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
4. How often can you use the detox footbath system on yourself?
We recommend that you Detoxify no more often than every 48 to 72 hours, this gives your body a chance to recover from your session. It is not beneficial for your body to Detoxify more often than recommended.
5. How long does the water module last?
You will get between 90-120 sessions with the BBS water modules, depending on the type of water you use. You will get between 50-100 sessions on average with the ionSpa array, depending on the the type of plate you use, type I or type II, and again this will vary with the water used.
BBS manufactures their module from medical grade stainless steel, containing no copper alloy, to achieve maximum durability. ionSpa also manufactures their array plates from Stainless Steel, but offers two different plate compositions. Type I provides more color in the water, but is less durable, about 50 sessions. Type II generates less color, but will break down slower, and last for approximately 100 sessions, again depending on the water.
Both manufactures are RoHS Compliant, which means, as it relates to the module or array, that no lead is used in the manufacture of either the BBS or ionSpa unit; Your assurance you won't absorb any unwelcome lead while you are detoxifying your body.
6. Should I disinfect the Module or Array between sessions?
It is definitely recommended that the module or array be sanitized after each use. This is particularly important, if there are multiple users or the unit is being used in a professional setting. You do not want to risk transmitting biological material from one person to another. Both the Renovati and ionSpa's plates are open and easy to sanitize. Simply follow the manufactures instructions.
7. Can people with Diabetes use the system?
Yes, but we recommend a reduced rate for the initial use of the system: A total of only 10 minutes the first session. Sessions can then be slowly increased over a period of 30-45 days based on the participants response.
8. Should a mineral supplement be used after your Detox session?
No system can distinguish between the "good" and "bad" minerals that are remove from the body. Some "good" minerals will be lost during your session. Like an athlete who loses electrolytes while competing, by taking a supplement, you can replace "good minerals" lost as part of your session.
9. Will I see color change without feet in the water?
Yes. Virtually all water contains impurities, which due to the electrolysis are separated or recombined to create color in the foot bath water, regardless of the introduction of feet. The breakdown of the module or array plate will also contribute color to the water, as will the salt, which creates the conductivity. However, from this base there will normally be a marked difference in the end results between individuals, beginning with the same initial setup.
10. What does the foot bath water color signify?
There are widely circulated color charts which relate the foot bath water color to the removal of toxins from various parts of the body. We do not subscribe to their use. There is no scientific evidence supporting any color association to where in the body specific toxins originated. Until there is some documentation we suggest any interpretation of water color be viewed with some skepticism.
11. What kind of water can I use?
The number of impurities will vary significantly depending on the waters source. Well water, tap water, bottled spring water or filtered water will all normally work fine. However, distilled, softened or reverse osmosis water have the minerals removed, which greatly reduces the conductivity of the water, requiring more salt, and/or power to achieve the needed level of ionization.
12. Can I still use the foot bath system while taking prescription drugs?
It is usually a wise precaution to consult your heath care professional before initiating another program. People who are on day-to-day prescription drugs should experience all the benefits of detoxification, but your health professional may prefer to monitor your progress. It is highly advisable for people taking life sustaining medication to work closely with their professional.
13. should I feel tired or rejuvenated after a session?
People will respond differently to a session. Some will feel tired, while others will be full of newly found energy. For those who might feel tired, it is recommended that they delay their session till the evening, so their body can rest and restore itself. For people who feel increased energy after a foot bath it is best to schedule their bath in the morning so they can take full advantage for the balance of the day.
