Feel Energized

Here is another thing I do on a weekly basis for myself!! My Ion Detox Foot Bath! You are probably thinking, "Eww, gross! What is that?!"  For me this is a sign I'm getting the "junk" out of my body!  






With the increase in the number of chemicals introduced in the last fifty years, there has been a dramatic increase in incidences of autoimmune disease, allergies and common infections.

There are tens of thousands of chemicals in use today and more than a fourth of these are known to be toxic and nothing is known about their interactive effects. Body fat has been tested that contains residue of hundreds of chemicals. Metals, such as mercury and cadmium are everywhere and impossible to avoid. Lead can block red blood cell formation.

Chemicals can act as toxins that can block receptor sites on cells, and cause changes in calcium homeostasis selectively killing cells, and alter expression of gene products. Metals and chemical toxins weaken the immune system and cause increased vulnerability to virus, bacterial fungal and parasitic infections. In an attempt to detoxify these substances, our bowels, kidneys and liver are being overloaded.

Our eliminative channels have become blocked or dysfunctional, because, in conjunction with these synthetic chemicals, and the western diet that is so acid forming.

To relieve the strains on the kidneys and liver it is more important than ever to maintain a detoxification regimen. The ion foot bath is designed to relieve these strains and help the body re-balance its energy fields allowing organs to function better! 



There are many benefits of doing this once a week or even a few times a month.  Here are a few benefits of detoxifying the body: 



·    Removes toxins and body waste products that can cause health problems

Heavy metal removal

Faster recovery time from illness, accident or surgery

Reduced inflammation and fluid retention

Enhanced nutrient absorption

Increased oxygen levels and energy

Inactivation of viruses, bacteria, yeast and fungus

Improved sleep and relief from tension

Positive effect on Immune System

Removal of waste products

Helps clear up bad skin

Rejuvenates and energizes your whole body

Positive effect on weight loss (assists in weight loss)

Slows down aging

Seasonal allergy relief

Symptomatic relief from edema, gout, swollen joints, pain and headache.



*Right now until the end of August (I will even extend the offer if you make an appointment in September) the foot bath sessions are reduced from $45 to $35 with a school supply donation.

The Power of Forgiveness

4:50 PM Jackie Mart 0 Comments



"Forgiveness allows us to be fully present in this moment, right here, right now. Forgiveness enables us to wholeheartedly embrace what is and to be at peace with our past and fully engaged with the present. Making peace with our past is the most immediate way we can experience the abundance that is our birthright. Without forgiveness there is always something pulling us out of alignment with ourselves and with life; it is an energy drain in our system.
Until we have made perfect peace with all that has occurred in our life, and with all the people who have played a part in it, we deny ourselves the full richness of our true abundance. Forgiveness is a gift we give to ourselves. It frees up the energy we had invested in making another, or ourselves, wrong. Ultimately, forgiveness is letting go of the illusion that something actually ever went wrong." - TJ Woodward
