As a holistic healthcare professional, I do not believe these work and it makes me sad to know that such things are scamming people and making the rest of us honest natural healthcare professionals look bad and like quacks.
For those that say that it does work. I have one question. If so, then how does the water turn the same "detox" color if you put absolutely nothing in it?

I have observed much the opposite of your conclusions, and have been using the spa extensively in my condition with notable results.
In addition I have discovered that adding about 1/2 cup of caffeinated coffee to the spas greatly increases effectiveness as well as helps preserve the lifetime of the array. I also using otc rust remover to help preserve the arrays.
So, essentially, the effectiveness of the spa is in the array. Heat Pad or FIR Belt over the liver also increases detox noticeably. Some units are more powerful than others, so you might want to try another brand.

I was drawn to the same conclusion as you, years back. I tried the machine and I am a pretty healthy person, I never saw a change in the coloring of the water after numerous uses, didn't notice any health changes either, recently I decided to give it one more chance before I gave the machine away... warning this is gross.... for some background I have been doing a parasite cleanse for 6 months and rarely see any in the toilet anymore but it felt to me that this was only because the therapies I am doing don't seem to be strong enough. the morning after trying the Ion foot bath my poop was filled with them!! I tried it again last night to see if it was a coincidence and same results this morning, It Really Works to Draw out the Bad Stuff, it may not show in the foot tub, it will eliminate through our bodies usually paths of elimination from my experience... I am sold on this machine because I want these parasites gone!Replied By Amy (Los Angeles ) on 03/25/2018
Dear Leslie,
Just wondering which foot bath you purchased and/or where you purchased it from. Thanks!

It isn't so much that the person will detox through their feet into the water, although that is possible. The Ionic Footbaths work primarily by opening up the body's detoxification pathways, allowing the person to more thoroughly detox through the normal detoxification routes.... The effects last for days afterwards.
