We are living in a toxic and polluted world. We are continually inhaling and assimilating residues from petrochemicals, plastics and pesticides that occupy cell receptor sites and block normal hormone utilization.
How the IonCleanse works
The IonCleanse ionic foot bath provides a thorough and efficient way to cleanse and purify the body more effectively and faster that any herbal or fasting process or protocols. The IonCleanse foot bath is able to accomplish this cleansing with little or no stress to you.
Typically the feet are placed in a basin of warm water with the IonCleanse array unit. When turned on, the control unit delivers a small direct current into the array which causes heavy metals (mercury, cadmium, aluminum, copper, arsenic, nickel, etc) to generate positively and negatively charged ions. These ions neutralize charged particles in the body. The neutralized particles are pulled out of the body through the skin via osmosis and diffusion. Osmosis and diffusion involve the movement of particles through a membrane, from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. An ion field is formed by the IonCleanse array creating a higher concentration and osmosis across the skin of your feet.
Ionization is a familiar process. However, the concept of using ionization in a foot bath, such as the IonCleanse, is a relatively new idea. In nature, ions are generated by the movement of water molecules. Think of how good you feel while walking along a beach or near a waterfall. We are creating the same reaction with the IonCleanse, only magnified many times over.
Who should consider IonCleanse
Many chronic health conditions may improve with IonCleanse ionic foot bath treatments. The following is just a list of typical problems that may benefit from this type of treatment:
· Heavy metal toxicity or overload
o Lead, mercury, cadmium, aluminum, etc.
· Chronic fatigue syndrome
· Fibromyalgia
· Elevated cholesterol
· Hypertension
· Peripheral vascular disease
· Intermittent claudicating
· Cancer patients
· Impaired renal function
· Multiple sclerosis
· Rheumatoid arthritis
· Heart disease
· Cerebral vascular disease
· Alzheimer’s disease
· Autism
· Attention deficit disorder
· Anyone who desires to improve their overall health and wellness
We suggest you consult a Wycoff Wellness Center provider and discuss your specific health concerns before initiating treatment. Many other medical conditions may be improved by using the IonCleanse method.
What to Expect from a Session
Healthy individuals can expect to feel lighter and experience a greater sense of well-being from each IonCleanse session. Others may notice a significant increase in energy levels and improvement in sleep patterns.
A typical session will begin with clear water and end with colorful water containing particles. The water will change color even if there are no feet in the tub. This change is a result of the interactions between the toxins and particles already in the water, the added salt and the array of metals present. The basic color produced by these reactions varies from one geographic area to another. As a general rule, regional toxins contribute 20-40% of the residues found in the water after a foot bath.
We have found that a person’s purification session will override the geographical toxicity of the water. The following tables shows the different color patterns associated with the individual IonCleanse detoxification:
Color Area of the Body
Yellow-Green Purifying the kidney, bladder, urinary
tract, prostate
Orange Purifying the joints
Brown Purifying the liver; tobacco, cellular debris
Black Purifying the liver
Dark Green Purifying the gallbladder
White Foam Purifying the lymphatic system
Black Flecks Heavy metals
Red Flecks Blood clot material
Contraindications
Anyone who falls into one or more of the categories listed below should not use the IonCleanse system without discussion and approval by a Wycoff Wellness Center provider:
· A wearer of a pacemaker or any other battery operated or electrical implant
· Pregnant or nursing women
· Any person who is on heartbeat regulating medication
· Any person who is on blood thinners (coumadin)
· Any person who has received an organ transplant
· Any person who is taking a medication, the absence of which would mentally or physically incapacitate them, e.g. psychotic episodes, seizures, etc.
In addition, the following recommendations should be strongly considered:
· Many medications require that a blood level be maintained in order to be effective, such as blood pressure medication. You may be able to schedule an IonCleanse session just before administering of medication so as to maintain proper blood pressure.
· Be sure you have eaten and are adequately hydrated before receiving an IonCleanse session. The IonCleanse tends to lower blood sugar in diabetics and may do so with those who are hypoglycemic.
· As a general rule, you may receive IonCleanse treatments if you have diabetes, congestive heart failure or are receiving dialysis. Gentle purification will help the body eliminate toxins which the kidney and heart cannot eliminate on their own, but will not interfere with medications or deplete insulin levels.
· If you have a metal joint implant you may experience some pain in this joint with an IonCleanse session. If you have discomfort, please notify a member of our staff immediately. Please discuss any concerns with a Wycoff Wellness Center provider before beginning your treatment sessions.

o Recommend one treatment every week or every other week indefinitely
Supplements
It is important to take supplemental minerals and vitamins while undergoing IonCleanse Ionic detoxification. Your body will lose minerals that are contributing to your toxic symptoms, but also may lose essential minerals essential for health and wellness.
We suggest the following ongoing supplements be taken by most patients on a regular (daily) basis:
· A good multivitamin. We suggest Multigenics IC with Actifolate. Take 4 to 8 per day.
· Omega 3 supplements (fish oil). We suggest Metagenic’s EPA: DHA – take 2 to 4 daily.
· A probiotic (healthy gastrointestinal bacteria). We suggest Metagenic’s Ultra Flora DF or Ortho Biotics – take 1 to 2 daily
Please discuss with any member of the Wycoff Wellness Center staff your supplements. All of our staff is well educated as to the benefits of various nutritional supplements and will help guide you to make an appropriate decision. Our most important goal is to help you obtain and maintain health and wellness naturally.
