History of the detox pads
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 patches 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. Why Detox Pads Are Worn on the Feet - Foot Reflexology Zones 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.

How to use detox foot pads
For most people, wearing the pads at night are a safe and extremely easy way to alleviate the aches and pains caused by inflammation and disease states. You can also place them 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. 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.
How long to wear detox foot pads
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. 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.
