Ion Cleanse Treatment

Today we are exposed to the greatest toxic load in the history of our planet. Because of this, ongoing periodic detoxification is essential to maintain health and avoid disease. The IonCleanse provides a thorough and efficient way to maintain high energy levels and long term wellness. It appears that the IonCleanse detoxifies the body more effectively and faster than any herbal or fasting protocols with little or no stress to the person. Used properly, the lonCleanse provides a comfortable and relaxing way to rid the body of toxins without precipitating healing crises and Herksheimer’s reactions.

What to Expect from a Session
While every one could benefit from IonCleanse baths, the people who get the most noticeable immediate results are those suffering from edema, inflammation, gout, osteo-arthritis, and pain that is not related to subluxation. Considerable symptomatic relief of these conditions is experienced immediately following treatment and even healthy individuals can expect to feel lighter and experience a greater sense of well-being from each IonCleanse session. Because disease, surgeries and many medical procedures leave the body weak and toxic, IonCleanse detoxification treatments may prove to be essential to your ongoing health. Some people may experience a Herksheimer’s reaction due to the toxic buildup in their bodies.

The IonCleanse Works by Generating Ions
An ion is a charged atom that has gained or lost an electron which creates a magnetic field capable of attaching to and neutralizing oppositely charged particles. These neutralized particles are extracted from the body through the process called osmosis: Osmosis is a scientific term that is used to describe the movement of particles through a membrane from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. In this case, the higher concentration refers to the ion field that is set up by the IonCleanse array.

The array is placed into the water beside the feet while the power supply delivers a low level direct current to the array. This causes the metals within the array in combination with water and salt to separate oxygen and hydrogen in the water to generate positive and negative ions.

Ions generated by the IonCleanse travel through the body attaching themselves to a multitude of toxic substances, thereby neutralizing their positive or negative charge. Pain and other symptoms caused by a lifetime of toxic buildup in the body may be significantly reduced. Life-enhancing changes such as improved diet and exercise can enhance the effectiveness of the IonCleanse.

Regional Toxicity
Water, metal and salt will combine to produce a water color change because the IonCleanse neutralizes toxins in the water the same way it neutralizes toxins in the body. The predominant color of the de-ionized water is determined by the chemicals used by local water authorities in combination with the pollutants common to that area. Chinese acupuncturists believe that certain ailments are related to the toxisity particular to that area. Some areas of the country have higher joint complaints, while others report a higher frequency of kidney-bladder problems.

The Meaning of Positive and Negative
When the IonCleanse is set to positive, the current is directed to the positive pole, which results in the production of more negative ions in the water. Therefore, a positive polarity generates a negative ion flow which raises blood pH from acidic toward alkaline.When the IonCleanse is set to negative, the current is directed to the negative pole, which results in the production of more positive ions in the water. Therefore, negative polarity generates a positive ion flow which lowers blood pH from alkaline toward acidic.

Approximately 95% of people in this culture experience a state of acidity; that is, their bodies contain an excess of hydrogen ions, and their blood pH is lower than 7.45. These people will greatly benefit from exposure to high concentrations of negative ions. However, we have found through muscle testing most people prefer a mixture of positive and negative ions in each IonCleanse session.

Any person who falls into one or more of the categories listed below should not use the IonCleanse:

  • A person that has a pacemaker, or any other battery operated or electrical implant
  • Any person who is on heartbeat regulating medication
  • Any person that has had an organ transplant
  • Any person who is taking a medication, the absence of which would mentally or physically incapacitate them, i.e., psychotic episodes, seizures, etc.

Furthermore, the following recommendations should be strongly considered:

  • Many medications require that a blood level be maintained in order to be effective, such as blood pressure medication. Schedule an IonCleanse session just before the taking of a medication so that the person can maintain proper blood levels.
  • Make sure that persons with low blood sugar have eaten before putting their feet in the water for a treatment. The IonCleanse tends to lower blood sugar in diabetics and may do so with those who are hypoglycemic.
  • It is best not to bathe pregnant and lactating women because the IonCleanse will pull toxins outof tissues and fat. These toxins could impair fetal development and will become part of the milk that is fed to a newborn infant.

As a general rule, the IonCleanse can be used with persons on dialysis, taking insulin or experiencing congestive heart failure. Gentle detoxification will help the body eliminate the toxins that the kidney and heart cannot eliminate on their own and will not interfere with medications or deplete insulin levels.

The IonCleanse treatment should not affect staples or plates used to repair in surgery. However, some people who have had a metal joint implant have found the exposure to an electromagnetic field to be too uncomfortable. If you have a metal joint implant and feel uncomfortable, have the treatment stopped.

It is important to drink plenty of water while doing the Ion Cleanse program. Most people will also benefit from a mineral supplement during this time. If you have any questions or concerns, please ask your assistant.

Definition of Terms:
Array – The part of the IonCleanse that is submerged in the water
Herksheimer’s reaction – “Sickly people have a lot of bugs in their system and if you kill them off too quickly, you will get a Herksheimer’s reaction (fever, weakness, nausea, etc.)”
