The skin is the body's largest organ of elimination. Because of our modern, sedentary way of life, the skin barely functions as the organ of elimination it was designed to be. If it is caught working (in spite of our antiperspirants), the air conditioner is quickly turned on to stop this "uncomfortable" but natural cleansing process.
The skin is one of four major elimination ports. The other three are the digestive track, lungs, and the kidneys. Like the other three the skin's elimination ports can also slow down, clog and become irritated through the elimination of excessive animal protein consumption. These unwanted protein molecules are acid in nature and when exposed on the surface of the skin can irritate and create skin illness and disease related conditions.
Ginger baths are an old folk remedy used to open the pores of the skin. Bentonite Clay has been used for thousands of years as a poultice to draw poisons from the body, and is also very effective in eliminating free radicals. Natural mineral salt from ancient inland sea beds and soda (Sodium Bicarbonate), are also powerful detoxifiers, which are very effective in pulling radiation from the body. Soda also neutralizes acid waste. The Detox Spa incorporates all of these elements.
Detox Spa transforms stress into energy and weariness into relaxation. Detox Spa is formulated to detoxify by drawing out toxins and pollutants, and stimulate circulation for healthy, glowing skin. It helps prevent cellular tissue damage caused by modern environmental pollutions, aging, and oxidation. Environmental air pollutions such as smog, traffic, pesticides, and modern chemicals form a layer of toxic particles on our skin. These harmful pollutants reduce the health and vitality of cells, leaving them vulnerable to environmental disease.
Once the Detox Spa has drawn the toxic waste from the body, it will not be reabsorbed into the body from the bath water. There are three reasons for this:
-
By drinking plenty of water before and during the bath, a flushing effect is provided which carries waste materials out of the body.
-
The temperature of the water activates the body's sweat glands to transfer fluid and waste from inside the body through the skin to the outside.
-
Sea salt and baking soda together raise the specific gravity of the bath water, making it similar to that of the ocean. As you may already be aware, when a person is shipwrecked, and left to float immersed in the ocean, without drinking water, dehydration will occur because the skin will not absorb the salty water.
For the quickest way to overcome the uncomfortable feeling of being “poisoned” when experiencing a cold, flu, or any other cleansing process, simply use a Detox Spa. The body is being supported in its efforts to eliminate toxins.
This is a deep cleansing bath especially good for the body after or during an illness or whenever you feel the need to release accumulated toxins and as part of a detox diet.
