Our Detoxification Philosophy Our body, although perfect in design, was never designed for what it is subjected to today. We live in a polluted environment – our food, drink and even the air we breathe are all contaminated with chemicals from smog, industry and mining. In fact, according to Environmental News Network the U.S. industry releases about 24 billion pounds of toxic substances annually. There are also toxins that we are exposed to in our everyday lives, such as chemicals in cleaners, perfumes and dyes, as well as toxins that our body produces naturally as it carries out normal bio-chemical processes. Most disconcerting is that all these toxins have the ability to affect human health in a most insidious way. Many chemicals are fat soluble and not readily broken down in the body, and can therefore build up to dangerous levels. The range of health problems this can promote is extensive, including fatigue, headaches, overweight/obesity, allergies, autoimmunity (multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis), hormone imbalances, fibromyalgia, autism, arthritis, cardiovascular disease and cancer. The food we consume also plays a big role in our toxin exposure. Unhealthy diets that include too much dairy, fat, sugar and refined grains, along with the use of alcohol and pharmaceutical drugs lead to further to ill-health and disease. Detoxification is a normal process that our bodies go through to eliminate these environmental and metabolic toxins. Sweating is one such process. We normally sweat to cool our bodies when we are overheated, but it is also important for detoxification. Normal liver, kidney and intestinal function are essential for detoxification and overall health. All of these systems working together provide a powerful mechanism for health maintenance and renewal. Unfortunately, if you are not feeling your best chances are these systems are not working optimally. You may benefit from one of our detoxification programs. We incorporate a wide array of healing and detoxification modalities including Far Infra-Red (FIR) Sauna. Sauna therapy has been used for years to assist in activation of the lymphatic system (storage facility for cellular debris) and fatty tissue release of metabolic and environmental toxins (pesticides, heavy metals, chemicals). In fact, far-infra red (FIR) sauna played a significant role in helping many of the fireman and other rescue workers who suffered from toxin exposure recover their health after the clean-up phase from 9/11 in New York City. Sauna therapy is a must for anyone dealing with chemical toxicity. Ionic Cellular Cleansing Foot Bath is a gentle procedure that helps to activate toxin release out of the body. It is safe for people of all ages and is a nice compliment to our sauna therapy. Intravenous (I.V.) vitamin, mineral and antioxidant therapy, and injectable vitamins (intramuscular B12) (show picture of IV supplies – bottles of nutrients, etc) are an easy and effective way of replenishing lost stores of necessary nutrients that support detoxification. B-vitamins, zinc, selenium, and vitamin C are all essential nutrients that your body needs to stay healthy. These therapies are also effective for anyone feeling fatigued, coming down with a cold or flu, or recovering from strenuous exercise or sport’s competitions. Dietary cleansing with the use of our specialized herbal and nutritional supplements is a must to promote proper digestion and intestinal and liver/gallbladder elimination. These systems must be working optimally to release toxins out of your body. All of these therapies can be implemented while undergoing one of our 30, 60, and 90 day detoxification programs. Implementing a detoxification diet which includes bowel and liver cleansing herbs along with sauna and ionic food bath therapy is an ideal way to release toxins, cleanse your body and regain energy and vitality. These therapies have benefited many people on the road to illness recovery and wellness. Detoxification is great for all sorts of health conditions, including weight loss and disease prevention. At the core of natural medicine is the knowledge and means to promote and maintain optimal detoxification capacity. Our body’s health and vitality is dependent upon it. No health program should forget the basic principles of proper elimination.
