As we've alluded to in previous blog posts, how your body detoxifies plays a key role in the quest towards true health and wellness!
If we have compromised pathways, lack the essential mineral content, or are dehydrated, the detox process can be a tumultuous experience or not even work at all.
Sometimes despite our best efforts, we could do with a boost.
With our bodies being constantly under pressure from toxins, stress, and environmental factors that were unheard of just a few generations ago, many people are searching for safe, natural ways to support their health and wellbeing — without harsh cleanses, restrictive diets, or complicated protocols.
One of the gentlest yet powerful tools available is the ionic footbath, which offers the body a chance to release toxins while re-balancing the bio-energetic cells of the body.
At our centre, we’ve paired the ionic footbath with the Energy Enhancement System (EESystem) to create a unique detox experience. This combination works not only on the physical level but also on the energetic and cellular level, offering clients a sense of clarity, calm, and renewal.
In this blog post, we will uncover how these Ionic Footbaths can be helpful, as well as how the combination of these two modalities (EES and Ionic Footbaths) can help create beneficial health outcomes!
What is an Ionic Footbath?
An ionic footbath is a simple yet effective detox method where your feet are placed in a basin of warm water, and a small device called an 'array' gently ionises the water.
We add a saline solution to the water which acts as a conductor between the water and the array. The array itself emits a low electrical current that helps to electronically charge the water. This process creates negative and positive ions that interact with your body through the thousands of pores in your feet.
Excessive positive ions can lead to illness and disease. In this case, the cells are not able to absorb nutrients or excrete waste effectively. An image to visualise this process can be found below:
As your feet soak, the ionic exchange helps draw out impurities from the body and stimulates the natural detox pathways — particularly the lymphatic system. Many people are surprised to see changes in the water colour during a session, which reflects the body’s unique detox process.
While some critics dismiss this as “just dirty water,” those who have experienced a footbath often report feeling lighter, more energised, and deeply relaxed afterwards.
Throughout the next 1-2 days post treatment, toxins will continue to be released from each cell and are excreted through the usual detox channels. It is imperative to continue to drink water during this time and ensure that your body is supported thereafter this process.
How can I support my detox?
Water is key. It is true that water is LIFE! As your body detoxes, it dumps toxins into the blood stream to be delivered around and out of the body through the usual channels.
During any detox, increasing your water intake significantly should be priority #1.
It can also be helpful to use a magnesium gel or oil to aid in the detox process or take a fulvic trace element supplement. Both can be found on our online store - www.vitalbodyproducts.org.
What are the benefits of regular Ionic Footbath Sessions?
Research has shown that the 'ionisation' process is extremely beneficial to the body, a natural process that can be observed with grounding.
As we mentioned above, it is common that an excessive number of positive ions in the body can lead to detrimental outcomes. The re-introduction of balanced cellular energy (negative 70-90 millivolts) can lead to an increase in oxygen supply, organ function, and innate detoxification.
As your body becomes more balanced at a cellular level, it is clear why people report an enhanced sense of wellbeing and internal harmony!
It is recommended to do a series of 10-20 Ionic Footbaths, to continually rebalance at a cellular level and encourage continues rejuvenation - especially if paired with the EESystem.
One of the key benefits to our Ionic footbath here at the centre (www.vitalbodywc.org/services) is that it creates molecular hydrogen as well as theionisation process.
Hydrogen is considered one of the strongest natural antioxidants with high reduction potential - the perfect side kick to aid in your detoxification process! It is highly absorbent and incorporated into the body.
If you're feeling slow, sluggish, brain foggy or struggling with body aches - the ionic footbaths could be a great way to support your body on its healing journey!
The Combined Power of Ionic Footbaths & the EESystem:
Pairing the ionic footbath with the EESystem takes detox to another level. Boosting cellular voltage and function in the body naturally leads to an 'inner clean out' of the nasty's that don't belong!
Think of it like a spring clean for your home: the footbath takes out the rubbish, while the EESystem upgrades the wiring and lighting so the space feels fresh and new.
Many clients describe feeling lighter, clearer, and more at ease after combining the two therapies. Others notice improved sleep, reduced tension, or a greater sense of emotional balance.

Ionic Footbaths and EESystem sessions for health and wellness:
In a western world full of environmental toxins, it is crucial to have your detox pathways open and flowing and have adequately charged cells.
Even with the best forms of diet, movement, minerals and sleep - everyone could benefit from a boost!
The energetic environement generated by the EESystem can aid in boosting cellular charge, while the Ionic Footbaths specifically can assist with the detox part of your healing journey!
Think of it as two peas in a pod!
Batman and Robin!
A King and a Queen!
The perfect combination, assisting together to support you in achieving your health outcomes! We'd love for you to try it for yourself, so you can enquire via www.vitalbodywc.org/services or call our centre on 0422571117.
