DetoxQuest Foot Patches are an amazing combination of two powerful components.

DetoxQuest Foot Patches contain Brazilian Tourmaline, a crystal silicate mineral compounded containing elements such as aluminium, iron, magnesium, sodium, lithium, or potassiuma mineral. Tourmaline is prized as a semi-precious stone and comes in a wide variety of colors. But, while the semi-precious gem status increases the gemological value, it is the mineral aspects that are of interest to us and has become the focus of research at universities and research centers worldwide.

It is believed that infrared Tourmaline is the only single mineral to show permanent electricity on the earth. It is also a natural source of negative ions and far infrared (FIR) rays. Because of FIR rays, it is believed that Tourmaline can directly interact with the human body just like light does, reach well into subcutaneous layers of the body with its deep penetration ability causing internal warmth and, once illuminated, can cause natural vibration of water, protein, fat and enzymes. To put it simply, in many cultures, Tourmaline is believed to be helpful for improving circulation, relieving stress, increasing mental alertness and strengthening the immune system function (Niwa Institute for Immunology, Japan. Int J. Biometeorol 1993 Sep; 37(3) 133-8). FIR rays also generates negative ions. Negative ions are odorless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that are abundant in certain environments like mountains, waterfalls, and beaches. Once in the bloodstream, negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase levels of serotonin, a mood elevator, helping to relieve stress, boost our daytime energy and allow us to get a good night's sleep.

DetoxQuest Foot Patches also contain a wood vinegar also called pyroligneous acid. Wood vinegar is the fluid or sap from trees that has been distilled into a dry powder. Chinese medicine has long used the fluid from trees for it's perceived sterilizing properties and for it's use in physiotherapy to relieve minor pain and selling. As was reported in the Journal of Immunity, “The benefits I noticed are deeper and more restful sleep, better sense of well being the next day, joints feel more limber.” (Journal of Immunity, Vol 1 No 3, Oct-Dec 2003).

While the majority of users apply the adhesive DetoxQuest Foot Patch to the bottoms of the feet, the patches may be applied to many parts of the body. The foot is the most common place to apply the patches because according to the study of Reflexology, the various spots on the bottom and sides of the feet affect the well-being of the person. In addition, the feet are not subject to the daily environments most body parts are, thus making them more sensitive and responsive to treatments. The charts to the right shows you how, according to the study of reflexology, areas on the feet relate to specific organs in the body and how pressure points can be used to increase blood to those regions. So, use your best judgement and experiment trying DetoxQuest Patches on your feet and other part of your body to get the best results for you.

While you sleep, the DetoxQuest Foot Patch may enhance blood circulation which in turn may help revitalize your body, help strengthen your immune system, help improve your quality of sleep and promote better health and longevity.

Just three hours after applying DetoxQuest Foot Patch, the blood circulates to the previously cold foot and the temperature of the foot rises. The red-colored portion of the thermograph indicates the rising temperature caused by the DetoxQuest Foot Patch.

People are using DetoxQuest Foot Patch to:
• Relieve pain and discomfort of arthritis.
• Improve immunity system.
• Increase vitality and energy.
• Reduce stress and anxiety.
• Improve circulation.
• Improve sleep.
• Enhance mental focus and concentration.

As stated above, DetoxQuest Foot Patches are not restricted to use on the feet only. Many people use these patches on other part of the body, especially those areas that have been identified as accupressure points on the hand, elbow, back, arms, behind the knee and legs. Other points of interest are directly over major organs like the heart and kidneys and areas where pain exists. Basically, any area of concern to you. The key is to experiment and find the best fit for your body. Also, what works today may not work as well tomorrow. So, it may benefit you to rotate to different spots each week. As you experiment using the patches on various body points, you may find it helpful to use adhesive tape to keep the patch in place as you sleep. We recommend adhesive tape that is easy to remove. You can find this tape at your local pharmacy or supermarket.

How do I use the DetoxQuest Foot Patch Patches?
DetoxQuest Foot Patch patches are simple and safe to use. Follow these insteps for general system detoxification and cleansing.

>> Take off a middle paper from adhesive paper. Spread the powder in the SAP sheet evenly and stick it on the printed side to the adhesive paper. Apply it to the applicable part of the body, pressing lightly.

>> It is basically applied to the sole of the foot and other parts of the body where comfortable. Make sure the area is dry and clean.

>> Apply them on both soles of the feet before going to bed and take them off next morning. We recommend that you wear a light loose sock to help prevent the patch from coming off while you’re sleeping. If this is uncomfortable, then try it without the sock. It may stay on depending upon how much you move your feet while you’re sleeping.

>> The patch should be used right after the packing paper is opened because it is hygroscopic.
