Are they safe to use?They do not deliver any chemicals to the body. They are only topical and draw toxins out of the body. You ingest nothing therefore they are completely safe.

Our foot patches were tested and certified safe and with non detectable heavy metals by FDA lab certification and ISO 9001 for quality.

How often should I use foot pads?It is recommended that they be used for at least one week for complete cleansing. You will know how your detoxification is progressing by the color of discharge on the pad. As the pad diminishes in colorization you will know that the detox is coming to an end. The length of time for this to happen varies with each individual. Some will detox relatively quickly others much longer depending upon life styles, immune system fatigue, and other variables.

Can I use them on only one foot?
Yes, you may do that but as you study the Reflexology Foot Map you will see that the liver point, for example, is located in the same place on both feet. If you were detoxifing the liver it would be most beneficial to apply a pad to both feet at the liver point. Also for balance it is wise to have both feet involved in the detox process.
Do the foot pads contain chemicals?
No, they are 100% natural ingredients and none of the ingredients enter the body. The ingredients merely stimulate and draw from the inside out.

Can I apply pads to a backache?
Yes, There are two ways other than to the feet that you can apply detox pads. If you study the acupuncture chart you will see there are points all over your body that correspond to various internal organs. These points are located specifically over a meridian flow so that the stimulation of the herbs can be sent directly to any pain or weak organs. If you have specific joint or muscle pain you can apply directly over the area for temporary relief.

Can they ease pain caused by gout, arthritis and rheumatism?
Yes! Users from around the world have received temporary pain relief. Pads are not a cure for maladies but can act as an efficient relief from pain caused by them.

Can I reuse the pads?
The pads are for single use only. Once the pad is activated by the resonance in the foot and toxins release onto the pad, any reuse would not be as potent or hygienic.

Are there any side effects?
Aside from allergies to the ingredients used, no side effects have been noted.

Why do my joints hurt even more?
Each of us responds to our healing process in different ways. You may experience a form of healing crisis. Users experiencing this are likely to have chronic problems. Reflex points will act to assist your body in its recovery process. If this is the case you will find the discomfort is tolerable and it will disappear in a day or two with continued use of the pad.

Why do I feel tired?
You may require more sleep as your body begins to release toxins.

What are the benefits?
Detoxifying may improve your circulation, aid in the elimination of waste and increase the movement of lymphatic fluids. This may create feelings of vigor, easing of muscle and joint problems, improved immune system, and better sleep.

How long should I use the foot pads?
Effects may occur within a few days (one or two pads per foot). You can use them as long as you see the need and have results. When toxins have been removed it is common to have no discharge or discoloration into the pad.

Sometimes my pads remain dry. Does this mean they are not working?
The pad has two main purposes, the most important being its relationship to its emission of Far Infrared energy. This energy stimulates circulation, healing and removal of toxins from various parts of your body. This will stimulate your excretory organs to speed up their function. Those organs include the skin, lungs, kidneys, liver, bowels and bladder. Most of the detoxification that occurs through these regular channels only increases. When the pads do not get completely wet, it does not mean the product is not working, it just means your body is not excreting any excess fluid from the part of the body on which you are wearing them. In creating the pads, one of the goals was to allow the pads to stay dry as long as possible because once they are wet; they cannot emit the Far Infrared energy.

Can I use the pads if I sleep less than 8 hours?
You can apply them before bedtime. It is best to wear them when you are relaxed and off your feet. Ultimately you should wear them while sleeping, because it is easier for your body to release toxins while your body is deeply relaxed. It is ok to walk on the pads, but we recommend removing them upon rising, as they may be moist.

Is there anything that will enhance their effectiveness?
It is wise to wash the site of application, to remove lotions, oils or anything that will block the pores. Soaking your feet in warm water can enhance circulation and aid in opening your pores. You may want to wear socks if your feet get cold. The pads are activated by your body heat and normal skin moisture. Be sure to drink plenty of water and assure good contact between foot and pad.

If I'm taking medication will using them contradict this?
None of the ingredients are taken into your body, so there is no need for concern.
