| We always talk about how detoxifying the
patches are . But one of the secrets to the patches working so well is
actually where we put them – on the feet!
The feet are known as the second heart in Traditional Chinese Medicine
and that is because the feet hold a second heart in the form of a heart reflex
and the patches stimulate those reflexes on the sole of the feet, and it’s those reflexes which in turn stimulate
the body’s internal organs which then produce a healing response in the body.
WHAT IS REFLEXOLOGY?
The science is based on the
premise that on the soles and on top of the feet there is a
complete map of the human body. There
are zones and reflex areas in the feet which correspond to all glands, organs,
parts and systems of the body. See the below picture of detox reflexes in
instep of foot and isn’t it incredible to see how the spine is mirrored in your
foot!
The act of applying pressure
using thumb, finger and hand techniques through specialized
combinations of pressure assist the body in coming back into homeostatic
balance by stimulating nerves, unblocking energy, and improving blood
flow. The patches achieve a similar
response as the tourmaline in the patches hold permanent electricity and the
tourmaline and eucalyptus wood vinegar emit far infra red rays and donate
negative ions (anti-oxidants). It is
these actions that stimulate the reflexes, and provide the body with healing
energy.
Each person’s body will respond according to what is best
for him or her and that is why each person has such a different response. One person with gout may be tremendously
relieved after a few nights using Fountainhead Chi Detox Patches and a person
with diabetes using the patches will have a lowering of high blood sugar as our
intelligent, amazing body is using the energy provided where it is most needed.
For more information and research on Reflexology go to our
website and look under therapies – reflexology.
The patches thus used as part of a reflexology treatment
regimen are excellent or they can be used on their own nightly. We recommend an initial course of a minimum
of 5 nights of patch use. In a chronic situation such as with arthritis,
diabetes we recommend using 5-20 nights and then going onto a maintenance
program of using the patches once or twice weekly as needed or using a box
every now and then.
The Fountainhead
patches are now in an easy peel format – no fuss and need to fiddle with
different bits of plaster and are also available in Heat patches, but be warned
as the name implies – they are hot! This is tremendous for pain relief such as
stiff necks, back pain and sports injuries and sprains and remember it is drug
free!
Fountainhead Patches are great for anyone suffering with:
Blood circulatory
problems, arthritis, gout, fatigue, sleeplessness, swelling in ankles or legs,
assisting to detox, suffering from muscular pain, and sleeplessness or as part
of a preventative health regimen.
