Ionic Foot Bath Detox Machine, Ionic Foot Spa with 3 Arrays

This is the one my ND uses when on vacation. I will tell you what she told me: It's only negative ions, so don't take any medications before using as it will suck them right out of you, use it for 7 days and then 2-3 times a week thereafter, be sure to use real salt without additives (not epsom salts! - my mistake). Orange means it's pulling liver toxins, black means heavy metals, clear means acid. Does it work? Well, I can tell you that after a few months of just orange, I'm now getting a good deal of black. Have been using for 6 months now and the color keeps getting lighter overall. I don't get the deep orange like I did in the beginning. If nothing else, my feet are much softer and I like the relaxation aspect. I think how long an array lasts may depend on the type/quality of the water. When I am at my son's house or I use just straight tap water, the arrays don't seem to last as long. At home, I use reverse osmosis water. For myself, 20 uses per array seems to be a good number and you can buy replacement arrays in bulk, which brings the cost down. The tub does stain if you don't use the liners but I'm the only one using it so I don't care.

I like the product but the company doesn't give any info on how to really use it. No info on how much salt or baking soda to use. Had to do research on line.

We are very satisfied with our VnioLife Ionic Foot Bath Detox Machine! It’s become a regular part of our weekly routine, and we use it two to three times a week without fail. Each time feels so soothing and relaxing, like a mini spa experience right at home. One of the most surprising and fascinating parts is watching the water change to a brownish color, just as the product claims. It’s oddly satisfying and really makes you feel like something is happening. Whether it’s detoxifying or just helping us unwind, we’ve noticed we always feel refreshed after using it. Super easy to set up and use, and the whole process couldn’t be more convenient. It’s great to have such a comforting and effective tool that fits right into our home life. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to add a bit of relaxation and self-care into their week! PS, remember to order your salt crystals they do not come with machine, we use about half a cup per use.

I would love to give it no stars, but you have to give it something. This thing was ridiculously expensive and my daughter plugged it in to use it and all this brown stuff starts coming out of the little black thing in the middle of the water. Is this a scam to make people think that this brown stuff is coming out of their body when it’s really coming out of the black thing in the middle. I can’t get a refund for it because it’s past the refund date and it was a present that’s why it was opened so late What a joke rip off stay away!

There is debate whether ionic foot baths really work. I do know that some of the color changes in the water are due to the reaction with the minerals in the water. I ask myself, if the ions are reacting with the minerals in the water, does it also react with my body? Not a scientist so I don't know the answer. What I do know is that after my first use there was a reaction in the area on the bottom of my foot that in reflexology corresponds to the kidneys. I had to massage it out. Another great thing is that it removed all the dead skin on my feet! Wow, they came out soft and smooth. The cons for me is emptying the water when done (kind of gross) and cleaning the array. Other than that, I'm glad I bought it. I love to pamper myself and if there is a health benefit that is even better.
