Detox pad info : history of the "tree sap sheet"Detox pads were first researched and developed by two Japanese scientists who found that certain combinations of minerals and herbs produced a drawing effect from the lymphatic system. Acting much like plasters or compresses, the detox pads utilize tree sap vinegars [wood vinegar and bamboo vinegar] together with houttuynia cordata, tourmaline, loquat leaf and starches to attract waste, toxins, heavy metals, yeast overgrowth and even nicotine onto the pads.

The detox pads are worn on the feet for a couple of reasons - the feet are considered in Oriental medicine to be "the second heart" - that is, they help pump return circulation of blood and lymph back up into the torso. With most of our time spent sedentary these days, this natural pumping action is inhibited and circulation tends to bog down around the feet, ankles and lower legs. The feet are also one of the reflex areas in the body that contain the pattern of the whole. This is what reflexology is based on - see foot diagram above for reference. So what happens to areas of the feet occurs also in the reflex areas of the body. For example, the heel correlates to the pelvis and lower organs, the arch to the stomach and upper abdominal organs, the ball of the foot to the upper chest and shoulders, and toes to the head and neck. So if you want to effect a drainage from the area of your right shoulder, wear the detox pad on the corresponding zone area which is the upper and outer third of the right foot.

For most people, wearing the detox pads at night are a safe and extremely easy way to alleviate the aches and pains caused by inflammation and disease states. While the FDA has not reviewed the effects of the pads, testimonials from users continue to pour in. Over 4 billion boxes per month are sold to people mostly in the Pacific rim of Malaysia, Japan, Korea, and on the West Coast since their introduction in 1998. You can also place the detox pads directly over a painful or swollen area. They tend to work best when applied over a blood-rich spot, like the extremities - hands, feet, backs of knees, temple, neck, spine. Overall lymphatic detoxing through the feet can require a minimum 30 days detox for the average person, but 60 or 90 days usew of detox pads may be needed before you see less accumulation of waste in the pads. Most people use the pads underneath the arches of the feet to start with. The pads start showing less "goo" over time, although the amount of time this may take varies from person to person. At that point, other zones of the feet can be addressed and cleared, which usually takes less time. Of course, those with advanced disease states, those taking medication for prolonger period, and the elderly, may need to use the pads over a longer period of time. Depending on overall health, some people notice results fairly soon, within a day or two. Others may take a couple of weeks to sense that something positive is happening. Some people don't seem to get a lot of "stuff" coming out of the feet at night due to a sluggish lymphatic circulation. These people would do better to wear the pads during the day, to get a fuller benefit from the pumping of circulation through the feet. Generally, pads should be worn at night for 8-10 hours but not more than 12 hours. During the day, they should be worn 6-8 hours. Reports of more energy, better sleep, mental clarity, more positive thinking, and relief from all kinds of symptoms, including pain, are common. After the initial nightly applications of several weeks, they may be worn once or twice a week, or a few times a month, to continue to help the body with exposure to daily pollutants, as well as toxicities that accumulate from stress.

Toxic metal poisoning is becoming a grave threat to health and has been cited as a factor in sufferers of fibromyalgia. Toxic metals are found everywhere in our environment, in the air, water, foods and even certain medications and vaccines! Our detox patches were tested in October 2004 on volunteer subjects who had been found to contain a high degree of heavy metal toxicity in their bodies. Findings were made by hair analysis testing. The main toxic metals shown to be drawn out into the patches are: ARSENIC - LEAD - MERCURY - CADMIUM - BERYLLIUM - ALUMINUM Each subject had been found to suffer from various forms of heavy metal poisoning, and each wore the detox patches for three months, and then were tested again. Here are the very impressive results of this study:
The Far Infra-Red Effect of the Detox Pads - Photo #1
The patches work by stimulating the release of toxins from the cells. In order for this to occur, the cell walls must be expanded to allow the expulsion of waste across the cell membrane. This effect is aided by the FIR, or FAR INFRA-RED effect. What exactly is that? Infra-red light is not visible to the naked eye, but is felt as heat which is capable of deeply penetrating the skin. The therapeutic benefits of infra-red heat have been studied in China and Japan for the past several years. Findings have concluded that infra-red heat therapy has a proven beneficial effect on the blood circulation, healing and rejuvenation of the skin, increasing oxygen levels in the tissue, eliminating waste, preventing the growth of bacteria, relieving pain, and normalizing cholesterol levels. The source of FAR INFRA-RED energy in our detox pads is the mineral TOURMALINE, a gemstone which has both pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties. Our detox patches contain 30% of this precious mineral, which assists your body with the detoxification process. In October 2004, studies were conducted utilizing thermographic photographs showing the effect of FIR on the feet when patches were placed on them and after removal of the patches. Please review the three photos below for dramatic results. Photo #1 is an infra-red photo showing the feet when the patches are first placed on them, at 8:45 PM. The feet are at average temperature and the patches have only just begun to interact with the skin cells of the feet. The coloration does not show any change as yet. The controlled temperature in the environment remains at a steady 35 degrees Celsius, or 74.2 degrees Fahrenheit, so as not to affect the temperature of the feet.

Ten minutes later, at 8:55 PM, the thermograph shows that the feet are showing a brighter yellowish-red color and are therefore increasing in temperature. The herbal formula in the patches is beginning to work, warming the feet, which will then cause expansion of the cell walls in the skin. The bamboo and wood vinegars in the patches can now begin to exert a gentle drawing so that toxins begin to exit the cells and drain into the patches. Infra-Red Photo #3 - 105 Minutes Later
Just one hour and three-quarters following application of the patches to the feet, you can now see from the thermographic photo that the feet have dramatically increased in color - the infra-red stimulation of the patches, visible in the "hot" yellow colors in this photo, has increased circulation and warmth! The vinegars and other herbs in the patches are now drawing cellular toxic waste through the now-expanded skin cell walls out into the patch, where the matter is absorbed by starch and a trace amount of chitosan.

Detox Pad Info: The Negative Ion Effect
The healing properties of the detox patches are also attributed to the negative ion effect which they produce. What exactly is the negative ion effect? Negative ions are simply molecules which have lost or gained electrical charge, usually caused by radiation (from the sun or other sources), moving air or forceful water. They are therefore plentiful at the beach, near mountains, or near waterfalls. When you take a walk in a gentle rainfall, you may feel revitalized because you are sensing the negative ion effect from the rain striking the ground. The presence of negative ions in the atmosphere is very pleasant, even exhilarating, because of the healing effect of the ions. Negative ion generators are popular appliances nowadays because people recognize their value in maintaining a healthy, balanced environment. Some of the benefits of exposure to negative ions are increased resistance to infection, improved energy levels, and relieving depression and mood imbalances. The TOURMALINE mineral in the patches, responsible for the FIR effect, also releases negative ions into the atmosphere. The rate of release of these ions has been measured in a recent laboratory test in Japan. The charts below show the time-release effect of negative ions in a closed room.
