Hair Analysis
Hair analysis measures the mineral content of your hair which reflects the mineral content of the body's tissues. Excess or deficiencies of minerals in the hair can indicate the same in the physical body.
For example: If your hair reveals an elevated calcium level two or three times normal, then your calcium level within the body may be elevated also. If this is the case, a strong tendency exists for arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries due to calcium placques). If your calcium level is low, then a tendency exists toward osteoporosis (demineralization of the bone), increased tendency to bone fractures, dental caries, periodontal disease, muscle cramps etc. Various mineral imbalances, as revealed by hair
analysis, frequently lead to metabolic dysfunctions before any symptoms become manifest.
Other Conditions Which May Result Or Be Aggravated By A Mineral Imbalance Are:
Depression Hypoglycemia Hyperactivity Headaches Hypertension Arthritis Hair Loss
Anemia Thyroid Disturbance Prostate Disorders Digestive Disturbance Diabetes
Musculo-Skeletal Disorders Cardiovascular Disease Skin Rashes Emotional Problems Allergies
Why Test For Minerals?
Minerals are the "spark plugs" of life. They are involved in almost all enzyme reactions within the body.
Without enzyme activity, life ceases to exist. A trace mineral analysis is preventive as well as being
useful as a screening tool. Hair analysis opens up a whole new vista for the solving of your own particular
problem by recognizing your biochemical individuality.
Even if you are not experiencing a severe problem, abnormal changes in body chemistry and nutritional
deficiencies may result in early, subtle changes in the body such as:
White spots in fingernails - indicates a possible zinc deficiency.
Longitudinal ridging in nails - indicates an iron deficiency.
Brittle hair and nails - calcium and copper imbalance
Deep grooves across nails - calcium deficiency.
Stretch marks - zinc deficiency.
Lack of growth - zinc deficiency
Mood Swings - possible toxic metal accumulation such as lead, mercury, or cadmium.
The above indicators are early signs of metabolic disturbances and may lead to serious problems if left unchecked.
Common Causes of Mineral Imbalance
Improper diet - such as excessive intake of refined carbohydrates and sugars, strict vegetarian diets or other exclusive diets.
Taking vitamins and minerals which are not compatible with your current body chemistry.
Medications Birth Control Pills Stress Accumulation of toxic metals from the environment, job or hobby Inheritance of mineral patterns from parents.
The hair analysis procedure consists of taking a very small sample of hair from an inconspicuous section on the back of the head. This sample is then sent to a lab for testing. Hair analysis is an invaluable screening tool which allows a correct program of diet and supplementation to be designed for each individual's specific needs. Never before has there been available a metabolic blueprint with such a degree of applicable scientific accuracy.

"Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity".

People love the effects of our ionic foot bath; they find themselves more relaxed and relieved of tension and stress. But what is an ion and how does it work? What happens during the ionic foot bath? We'll try to explain.
A negative ion is an atom that has lost or gained one or more electrons causing it to become negatively charged. This negative ion is smaller than a molecule which allows it to be easily absorbed by the body through the process of osmosis. The scientific term of Osmosis is used to describe the movement of particles through a membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. In this case the higher concentration refers to the negative ions produced by the ion field that is set up by placing the array into the water.
Ionic Foot Baths operate through a process called electrolysis. This is done by generating the proper amount of current in the foot bath water causing the molecules of H2O to divide producing negative ions. Once the negative ions are present in the water, the body absorbs these ions through osmosis
The Ionic Foot Bath generate millions of these negative ions during the foot bath session. This causes
the body to absorb as many negative ions as possible. You could compare this process to a fully charged battery. When it has been fully charged it can not absorb anymore energy.
All foreign matter such as harmful chemicals, heavy metals, parasites, and others are all positively charged. The negative ion seeks out a positive molecule to attach to. Once attached to these foreign substances the body can readily eliminate them naturally through its own natural processes. This is the reason why a person should only do a foot bath session 2 or 3 times a week. Some of the impurities are transferred through the feet during the detox foot bath session, however, once the body has absorbed such a high amount of negative ions it begins to eliminate these toxins naturally over a period of days.
How the Ionic Foot Bath works:
The array goes into the water with the feet, and the power supply delivers a small amount of direct current into the array. When used for feet, this array in a container of water is the ionic foot bath. The electrical charge causes the molecules of the metals within the array, in combination with the water and other elements in the water, to divide thus generating positive and negative ions. This also produces oxygen and hydrogen to be released into the air. While you are being treated at the foot spa by the ionic foot bath this is part of the chemistry that takes place when you divide the molecule H2O. When experiencing the detox foot bath, you will see the water change color as the electrical current, water, and magnetic field interact with your feet. While the water would change color by itself due to the impurities in the water and the metals in the array, the colors are noticeably different with feet in the foot spa.

Live Blood Cell Analysis
Above are two photos of blood cells. Before a 30-minute Ionic
Foot Bath cleanse treatment the blood cells were clumped together
and oxygen deprived. After one 30-minute treatment the pH levels
can be restored to an alkaline level, which are oxygen-rich leaving the
body recharged and rejuvenated. Ionic Foot Baths bring your body back
to a state of harmony and balance!
