Removing the top layer of dead skin and stimulating the circulation of the blood is essential for maintaining youthful, glowing skin. Loss of excess weight and cellulite is an added benefit.

How To Brush The Perfect Way
Do not brush when your skin is wet, as it may cause your skin to sag. If you have poison ivy, skin rashes, infections or inflammatory problems such as phlebitis, do not brush. A slight flush due to increased blood circulation is normal, but don’t brush so hard that your skin turns red.

Feet, Toes and Legs
Starting at the bottom of your right foot, brush across the entire surface of the foot, back & forth seven times. Brush across the tops of the toes the same, then do the bottom. Brush back & forth across the top of the foot, seven times in each area. Brush around the ankles in a circular motion five or six times. Brush from the ankle to the knee in a circular motion working upwards towards the heart. Don’t neglect the knee area. Brushing will firm up sagging knee caps and free congested circulation in the back of the knee.

Hip Area
Start at the top of the knee, going up to the hip in a circular motion, always brushing toward the heart. Work around the leg so that every inch of skin is brushed. Concentrate on the cellulite areas, brushing those areas twice as much.

Front And Sides Of The Body
Hold the brush in your right hand, brush the right side up and down fourteen times from the upper thigh all the way to under the arm. Hold your breast clear with the left hand. On the left side, use your left hand to hold the brush. Brush back & forth acrooss and around the waistline fourteen times. Brush in a circular motion at the center of the waistline, fourteen times to the left and fourteen times to the right.

Stomach And Midriff
For the stomach area, brush in circular motions fourteen times, then in a back & forth motion ten times. Repeat this motion on the midriff area.

Bust
If you choose to; brush in a circular motion seven times, very gently.

Back Area
Cradle the brush with two hands. Brush up and down, fourteen times alonf the spine, starting at the tailbone and reaching as high as you can. For your upper back, use the long handle brush to brush those hard to reach places. If available, get a friend to brush your back more thoroughly, in a circular motion, then up and down in long sweeping motions.

Neck Area
To relieve tension and pressure in this area, cradle the brush in both hands, then place behind your head at the base of the neck and spine. Brush back & forth in a rocking motion.

For The Face
Use a softer brush of the cosmetic variety, since the blood vessels are nearer to the surface of the skin and can be broken if brushed too hard. Begin in the center of your face and stroke outwards, then up the sides of your face and neck. When finished, take your shower or bath. You will feel an invigorating tingling sensation all over your body.

One of the most popular services, an ionic foot detox allows the body to cleanse itself of toxic waste and heavy metals through a gentle ionic charge. An ionic foot detox works wonderfully in combination with our body wrap or as a stand-alone service

Coloring Factors

Water, salt and the metal in the unit interact with each other to produce ions.
These ions will neutralize everything they come in contact with including toxins that are in tap and filtered water. Depending on geographical locations, approximately 20-40% of what you see in the water comes from the junk in the water, and the remaining 60-80% comes from the body.

Soda pop, coffee, tea, juice, beer, etc., all have a different osmolality than blood, so water from these drinks will be taken out of the blood when blood reaches the kidneys. Dehydration occurs, and when this occurs, some of the kidney’s load is passed on to the liver. The liver works to metabolize stored fat into usable energy for the body.

If the liver has to aid the kidneys, it can’t function efficiently. Consequently, the liver metabolizes less fat, thus, fat remains stored in the body and weight loss ceases. Many people whose bodies retain water drink less water hoping to eliminate the problem. The body sees this action as a threat to it’s survival, so it attempts to hang onto every drop. Water is then stored in spaces outside the body’s cells. This causes swolllen feet, hands and legs.

Overweight people need more water than thin people. Larger people have a large metabolic load. Water also helps to maintain proper muscle tone by giving muscles their natural ability to contract. Water flushes waste from the body and eliminates constipation.

The best way to overcome excess water retention is to give the body what it needs… Plenty of water!
