See our information on Therapies - reflexology to see how reflexes that are stimulated in turn stimulate the actual organ part. Instead of a massage stimulation the reflexes are stimulated by the donation of far infrared rays, negative ions and the herbs within the Fountainhead Chi Detox Patch.

FOUNTAINHEAD CHI DETOX FOOT PATCHES CONTAIN:

Organic Agaricus Semotus Mushrooms from Brazil
Beta-glucan and Polysacchides contained in the Agaricus mushroom are known as one of the most powerful enhancing agents for the immune system. AAO certification proves the quality of our special Agricus mushroom. These organic mushrooms are naturally grown under powerful sunlight in the fertile red clay of Brazil without any artificial agents. Beta Glucans is known as a potent factor in natural cancer control. It is a steroid that has been used to assist in the regulation of cancer cells and is exceptional source of vitamins, minerals and amino acids.

Tourmaline
Tourmaline is best known as one of the only minerals to emit far infrared heat. It creates a resonance in the body that vibrates at the same frequency as water. Tourmaline exerts a cleansing energy on our nervous system. This has a stabilizing and cleansing effect.

Infrared Tourmaline is the only mineral to show permanent electricity on the earth and is also a natural (non-manufactured) source of negative ions and far infrared (FIR) rays.
It is also known 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). 
Around 1986, it was found in a research station in Japan that, even though tourmaline was broken down in smaller pieces, a positive and a negative electrode existed on both end of the crystal, and the electrodes never disappeared unless tourmaline was boiled near 1000°C. In addition, when the positive and the negative electrodes of a tourmaline crystal were connected to each other, it was proven to show low electricity of 0.06mA.

Tourmaline has been researched and found to activate animal and plant metabolism. 

The far infrared energy that Tourmaline naturally emits causes a resonance in the body at the same frequency as water.

All matter is made up of uniquely-arranged electrons and molecules all moving in unison. When molecules are illuminated with electromagnetic radiation of the same intrinsic vibration frequency as the substance itself, the electromagnetic wave energy is absorbed and the amplitude of that substance's molecular vibration is increased. That's why when FIR, having the same vibration frequency, illuminates a substance, that substance will filter out the FIR and experience a "resonance absorption." This is a process known as "resonance-absorption to heat-generation" with the aid of FIR.

In other words, the vibration of atoms and molecules will result in resonance absorption. When we feel hot, we will instinctively seek shade. When we feel cold, we seek the warmth of sunshine. No one teaches us these responses. We have an innate desire for a comfortable temperature. Comfortable temperatures are actually synonymous with a comfortable energy frequency or "wavelength." That wavelength happens to be 8 to 14 microns - the same as FIR.

The seventy-five percent of our bodies composed of water, protein, fat and other substances - all must function properly to sustain life.

When living things absorb FIR of 8 to 14 micron wavelength, they experience resonance absorption. The vibrating movement of molecules in living tissue produces an increase in energy which in turn activates cells and enhances metabolism.

FIR has three properties: radiation, deep penetration, and resonance absorption. Let's look at the relationship between these three properties and living things.

First, radiation: it means it can directly reach human bodies just like light does. For example, sunlight, which is also radiation, reaches earth through the vastness of space.
Second, deep penetration: FIR can reach well into subcutaneous layers of the body (or water) with its deep penetration ability, generating internal warmth suitable for molecule activation in living tissue.
The third feature is resonance absorption: Once illuminated, there is intrinsic vibration of body components - water, protein, fat, enzymes. And, the interior of molecules - atoms and atomic structures - experience the resonance absorption of FIR of their same frequency. This elevation of molecular energy is known as "resonance and absorption."

Artemisia lwayomogi (Mugwort Extract)
Used in protection and restoration of the liver and intestine, as a digestive aid and treats nervousness and insomnia; protection of eyesight; prophylactic in chemotherapy, suppression of carcinogenic substances, extinction of cancer cells; suppression of cholesterol; strengthening of blood pressure; action of immunity; removal of fever; and assists in women's diseases. 

Tree Essence or Eucalyptus Vinegar 
From ancient times in Japan, wood was burnt and the art of making charcoal by wood distilation was developed. From the charcoal kiln, smoke billows upward. When this smoke is cooled and condensed, a thick brown /black liquid results. This liquid is raw pyroligneous acid (wood vinegar). This acid has been shown to warm the body, activate the skin, moisturize and act as an antibacterial. 

From this raw material, further refining is carried out to remove the tar and any other undesirable elements. The result is a beautiful liquid of a pale yellow color (very weak tea). This liquid is then aged for up to a year to produce the final high quality wood vinegar that can be consumed as a health tonic. It is condensed five times and contains no synthetic vinegar or starch.

After the initial extraction process, the extract is dried for a period of six months. It is then filtered four times using the highest quality Umbamegashi-Binchou Charcoal . It is then dried one more time for an additional six months before it can be considered for use. This process yields a very concentrated extract with an extremely high level of purity.

Wood vinegar are naturally condensed 5 times until both become a powder. This drying phase lasts for a period of over 8 months and makes for an exceptional purity of product. Then finally this essence, after a last quality control test, goes into the Patches. 

Tree Essence, or pyroligneous acid, is a sap extracted from tree cells. It exhibits exceptional permeability and sterilizing properties.

Dehydrated tree saps infiltrate, absorb, detoxify, and sterilize. This is the basis of their ability to assist in disease prevention through reduction of body toxicity.

The Eucalyptus tree, for example, is probably the most powerful antiseptic in its class as ozone is formed upon exposure to air. It has a proven disinfectant action destroying unhealthy flora and microbes. This tree grows to over 350 feet and is amongst the tallest trees in the world. To provide enough water to it's upper most part, it has an amazing capacity to absorb water. The tree ability to purify large amounts of ground water through the roots into high quality water transported into the trunk and leaves, as well as harnessing the absorbing and detoxifying power of the wood sap, made the sap a natural ingredient for human use. It radiates a fine fragrance and has a sterilization effect on its surroundings. 

Chitosan 
This comes from Chitin which is contained in Hokkaido crab (red sea king crab). This is a water-soluble, natural and high molecular substance to which has good characteristics of moisture-keeping, excellent membrane-forming and skin-protecting ability.

Pearl Stone
Made from crystalline igneous rock and used to improve fluidity and absorbability. 

Vitamin C 
This component has some functions to prevent oxidation in the metabolism in human body and to keep immunity by the activation of the cell.

Eriobotrya Japonica (Loquat (Japanese medlar) Extract)
The Loquat leaf contains malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, tannate, carotene, vitamins A, B and C. It's leaves and kernel contain amygdalin (amygdalin is otherwise known as vitamin B17, or laetrile). It promotes the secretion of body fluids and has antitussive, expectorant, antiemetic properties. It has 3000 years of history in moxibustion therapies and has been used extensively in Buddhist medicine. In India it has been called the king of herbal medicine.

Eucalyptus Oil 
This is vegetable oil and enhances the healing effect.

Starch
This is watersoluble and is used in order to absorb moisture from surrounding. Especially as this component causes synergy for each component to be contained together, their efficacies may be improved.
