How do Detox Patches work?

In order to understand how detox patches work, we must first understand some interesting facts about the human body. For hundreds of years, eastern medicine has long believed that toxins travel downwards in the body during the day and accumulate from the tips of our toes to the ankles. It is also understood that toxin accumulation leads to many degenerative diseases. For example, painful rheumatism and arthritis are caused by acidic toxin fluid gathered in the joints. In foot reflexology, the feet are considered as an abbreviated version of the body, with 62 acupuncture points on the soles relating to the major organs in the body.

Detox patches contain natural ingredients which stimulate these acupuncture points through the combined action of wood/bamboo vinegar, far infrared and minus ion emissions. This stimulation results in the breakdown of water and waste molecules that frees blockages in the circulatory and lymphatic system allowing blood to flow more freely and toxic material to be removed into the patches.

 

 

 

reflexology

Wood/bamboo vinegar - After many years of research inspired by the longevity and resilience of forest trees, it was discovered in Japan that wood and bamboo vinegar extracts have the unique property of being able to adsorb bodily toxins.

Far infrared - Far infrared is a form of safe radiated energy given off by the ingredients of Detoxi patches. As the far infrared energy penetrates, it warms the tissues and increases the blood supply within the affected area promoting healing and cell regeneration. It also stimulates the breakdown of water & waste molecules which are extracted from the body through a kind of transdermal osmosis.

Minus ion emissions - Minus ions are formed naturally and an abundance of it may be found beside waterfalls and rainforests. This is the reason for the soothing effect one experiences when in the vicinity of these areas. Minus ion devices such as electronic ionizers have been around for a long time and its health benefits have been proven.

Why do we need to detox?

In today's environment, humans are exposed to a very high number of toxins on a daily basis. A toxin is any substance that causes adverse chemical and physiological reactions in the human body. Most people are either not aware or often overlook what these hazardous toxins could be doing to their health.

Below is by no means a complete list of some of sources where these toxins may be entering our bodies:

bulletProcessed foods (flavourings, colours and additives)
bulletFluids we drink (alcohol, tap water)
bulletPollution from factories and cars in the air we breathe
bulletSmoking and passive smoking
bulletNegative effects of radiation from mobile phones
bulletHarmful chemicals in personal health care products and cosmetics

As you can see, toxins are everywhere and an accumulation of these harmful substances                                                                in your body could be detrimental to your health. The 'lymphatic system', which is the body's natural                                         waste disposal system is the only means in which our bodies can help remove these toxins from our bodies.                              Without this important system we simply would not be able to survive. Unlike our blood system, where blood is                             being continually pumped around our body by the heart; the lymphatic system relies on gravity to help our body                            drain toxins, bacteria, cell debris and excess water. The lymph system therefore plays a vital role is maintaining a                          good immune system. However, when the lymphatic system becomes blocked, lymphatic fluid builds up and stagnates,                      causing the whole system to become toxic.

Detoxi patches help extract lymphatic fluid from the body and assists in clearing blockages, eliminates                                       metabolic wastes and toxins from the body. This allows the body to transport important nutrients to cells                                       and increases metabolic efficiency, all adding to the reduction of excess fluid. Use Detoxi patches on a regular                                    basis to help the body achieve its optimum state of health by improving blood circulation, increasing metabolism,                           activating blood cells and expelling body waste fluids.

How to use detox patches

Detoxi patches are very easy to use and work whilst you are asleep. After use, customers often feel more energetic and relaxed and pains and aches associated with accumulated toxins are often reduced.

Customers can place between 1-3 Detoxi patches on each foot for a complete detox of the body.

Detoxi patches should be left on both feet for 8-10 hours to ensure maximum adsorption of toxins.

 

Detox Patch ingredients

 






















 


 

Wood Vinegar

Wood vinegar, otherwise known as pyroligneous acid is the fluid or sap derived from certain tree cells, which exhibits exceptional permeability and sterilizing properties. The great absorbing power of the wood vinegar makes it fit to be used in physiotherapy, for minor pain relief and to decrease swelling in the body.



Bamboo Vinegar

The by-product of bamboo carbonization. Its herbal properties include the powerful ability to assist in the discharge of unnecessary waste matter from the human body.




Chitosan

Chitosan is derived from chitin, the main fiber component of crustacean shells. The most well-known weight-loss product known for isolating fatty tissue and dispelling it out of the body safely. Chitosan products are also used extensively by the medical profession due to their remarkable ability to promote wound healing, such as burns and skin inflammation.


Houttuynia Cordata

The plant is found in Japan, Java and Nepal at altitudes of over 6200 feet. It contains a variety of flavoids, flavonoid glycosides (afzerin, quercitrin, isoquercitrin) and pyridine alkaloids. Provides drainage to infections, detoxifies and expels bacteria, lymphatic fluid, and bacteria.



Tourmaline

Tourmaline exerts a cleansing and liberating energy upon our entire nervous system with a clearing and stabilizing effect. It has been known for dissipating negative energy out of the body, through the feet. Tourmaline is best known as one of the only minerals to emit FAR INFRARED heat and MINUS IONS, which causes resonance in the body at the same frequency as water.


Loquat Leaf

The Loquat leaf contains amygdalin (amygdalin is otherwise known as the anti-cancer vitamin, B17 or laetrile). It is known for its ability to promote the secretion of body fluids and is beneficial to the vital energy of the lungs as it helps dissolve and expectorates phlegm and alleviates cough.



Vitamin C

A protein that gives structure to bones, cartilage, muscle, and blood vessels. Vitamin C also helps maintain capillaries, bones, and teeth and aids in the absorption of iron. It also acts as a stabilizer for our patches.
 


Dextrin

A carbohydrate having the same general formula as starch but a smaller and less complex molecule with adhesive properties. Used to assist in absorbing toxins in the body.

 

Vegetable Fiber

Vegetable fiber is used to prolong the lifetime of the detox patches. Its fiber prevents ingredients from hardening.

F.A.Q

Who needs to use detox patches?

The human body is producing and absorbing harmful toxins on a daily basis. Removing these toxins is crucial in maintaining good health and a strong immune system. Detox patches are not just for the elderly and should be used by everyone for an easy and effective detox.
 

When will I start to notice a difference?

Each individual's health and genetic makeup is different. Some user will notice a difference after just one day, but most users tend to feel the effects of the patch after 3-4 days.


H
ow long should I use the detox patches for?

Detoxing should be performed on a regular basis to stop the accumulation of harmful toxins.

We recommend using our detox patches every day for 2-4 weeks to remove the accumulation of toxins that have built up over many years. This length of time can be lengthened or shortened depending on the customer's current state of health and lifestyle. Customers can then follow a maintenance plan, which requires detoxing 1-3 times a week depending on how you feel.

Please note, this detox plan is only a guide and customer should try to formulate their own detox plan according to how they are feeling after their initial period of detoxing.


Are detox patches safe to use?

Detox patches are completely safe to use as nothing is ingested nor injected. Unless you are allergic to any of the natural ingredients in our patches, to date, no side-effects have been noted. Like most health products, we do not recommend the use of our product for pregnant women.


Can detox patches be used on other parts of the body?

Yes. In fact, detox patches may be used on other areas for a localized effect. Among the areas known to react well with detox patches are the shoulder blades, lower back, back of the neck, knees, and ankles. Detox patches effectively eases pain on these parts when applied directly.

Note that you cannot stick detox patches anywhere on the body and expect it to relieve pain. The specific area must have meridians that can react to the wood vinegar. A good indication is the discoloration of the pads after use.
 

Why do I feel so tired?

This is part of the healing process and your body may require extra sleep as it starts to extract the toxins from your body.
 

My joints seem to hurt for, why is this?

Everyone responds to the healing process different. Some may experience a so-called healing crisis and users who experience this symptom are most likely to be those whose problems are chronic, or 'old' complaints. This stimulation of reflex points and associated circulation will act to assist the body in its recovery process. It is most likely that such users will find that the discomfort is tolerable and that it will disappear in a day or two with continued use of the patches. An excellent example is to relate to the experience of those who have tried acupressure on the feet. It may hurt a lot during the process, but the recovery afterwards is promoted by it.

Will the detox patches come off while I sleep?

They can and it is a good idea idea to put on socks to prevent the detox Patches from coming off. An added benefit of wearing socks is that the far infrared energy is doubled.

 

What are the benefits of using detox patches?

Detoxification from the use of detox patches results in a much improved blood circulation, the proper elimination of waste, and free movement of the lymphatic fluids. This translates to a feeling of vigour, easing of muscle and joint pains, improved immune system, and better sleep.

Most importantly, using detox patches on a regular basis helps prevent the accumulation of toxins in the body, thus substantially reducing the chances of illness and disease.

 

Are all detox patches the same?

Yes, they are similar in the way that they all use wood vinegar as the main active ingredient. However our detox patches rises above the rest in that the quality and concentration of the wood vinegar and tourmaline used is much greater and purer, hence more effective.
