About Our Detox Pads
Q: What is the recommended number of detox pads that I should purchase if I am going to use the pads for the first time?
A: You may want to consider a variety pack or a small sample of a few varieties initially, best matching any symptoms you have. When you have determined the best variety for you, we would recommend an initial purchase of 20 pairs which would last nearly 3 weeks. Use 1 pad per foot overnight every night. Depending on how much detoxification you want to achieve, you can do this on a regular basis. You can of course purchase a larger quantity at a time to save money and keep them as they will keep good for years if stored in a cool, dark, dry place.
Q: How long should I use the detox pads?
A: Each detox pad can be used from 4 to 9 hours. You can use several pairs on the same day if required. The best area to detox is at the bottom of the feet due to the large number of nerve endings in that area.
Q: Can I use more than one pair at a time?
A: It is perfectly fine to wear multiple pairs at a time, particularly where you may want to place pads directly on an affected area of the body in addition to another pair the related refexology points on the foot. You can also wear more than one on each foot to get more foot coverage (and so more reflexology points) if desired.
Q: Will the pads lessen in discolouration with continued use?
A: The pads may lessen in discolouration with continued use, but please note that toxins get into our body every day in form of polluted water, air, and food. It takes discipline to continue to use the pads, even if there is not much change in the discolouration.
Q: Can I use detox pads while taking prescription medications?
A: Yes. The detox pads can be used while taking prescription medications.
Q: Are there any precautions that I should know while using the detox pads?
A: Some models of our detox pads with chitosan are not recommended for people that are highly sensitivity to shellfish (seafood allergies). Although chitosan is very beneficial for detox, people with high sensitivity to shellfish should use our detox pads without chitosan. The Grapefruit (SS1L), Enhanced Grapefruit (TG-1), Quick (QU-1), Silver (AG), Green Tea (CC) and Lavender (SS3L) editions do not contain the Chitosan ingredient.
Q: Can children use detox pads? If so, at what age?
A: Yes. Recommended for children 3 years old and above.
Q: Is is safe to use during pregnancy?
A: We do not recommend undertaking any form of detox during pregnancy.
Q: Will I feel better immediately?
A: Many people report awakening refreshed and revitalized after their first nights application. Some people actually feel worse for a couple of days before feeling benefit. Do not be put off if this is the case as your body may just be adjusting to the detoxification process. As with any form of detox, ensure that you drink plenty of water.
Q: Can I use one colour edition on one foot and another colour on the other foot?
A: Yes. We recommend, however, to use one colour edition at a time so that you can easily determine which works best for you if using the pads for the first time.
Q: Are there any adverse side effects from using the detox pads?
A: There no adverse side effects from using the detox pads. As with any other form of detox we recommend drinking plenty of water when using the pads to help flush out the toxins and stop you feeling dehydrated.
Q: Is it safe to use detox pads while breast feeding?
A: It is very safe to use the detox pads while breast feeding.
Q: Why do some varieties go harder than others when used?
A: Due to the different mixes of ingredients, some varieties tend to go very hard after use, whereas some varieties remain quite soft. So this is not a good indication of the effectiveness of one pads compared to another.
Q: Why do some white areas remain on the pad?
A: If most of the pad is white, it is likely that the feet have not produced much sweat during application. To encourage this, perform some leg stretching or exercise before application to encourage opening up of the meridians. Also, make sure you drink a glass of water beforehand. After prolonged use (several weeks), areas of the pad may be noticably lighter. This may be that less toxins are now being extracted from that area. Apply the pads to different areas of the foot to help detox the rest of the body. (See Reflexology Chart)
Q: Are the ingredients actually absorbed?
A: The secret lies in the characteristics of our blood vessels. Toxins can be pulled out from our nerve endings and blood vessels through the vessel walls by using our detox patches, however only active ingredients such as Pectin in grapefruit patch, EGCG in special edition, or Agaricus Blazei in the silver edition have the capability to provide the extra healing by going into our bloodstream.
