Do you think we're all here trying to do something which we know is *unsafe*?

Well, you could drown, I suppose.. But I think you'd have to be an expert to do it ;-).

I am only a lowly researcher here, but I have now survived 4 of them, and am continuing my research..

Seriously, I think it's better to inform yourself by reading, Googling, seeing what the standard precautions are for using the commercial units out there (such as not being pregnant, no pacemaker, etc) and then carefully deciding on your own.

Only you know your own body and state of health, and only you can feel its responses.

I do have some reservations (Please read that phrase again, and I am NOT going to discuss them here, they apply only to me), but so far it's helping-- helping ME. I would not make flat statements about it to anyone else yet, and have several folks waiting to hear my results, where I am..

I mean, if you're over 80, using Oxygen and a walker, wearing a pacemaker and taking dozens of medications everyday, I would not do this.

If you're 26 and buff and a reasonable human, that may be different.

If you're 26 and buff, but are a hypochondriac, stay away.

I know this may sound as if I am laughing off your question, but believe me, I am not.

You have to apply your own common sense, and make your own decision about whether to try this or not. I'm not going to tell you what you should do.

Good Health to All of Us,

Hi,

As I reread my post above it sounds awfully d@rn flip. In case it came across that way to you, I hope you will please forgive me; I was reacting to uninformed 'footbashers' posting elsewhere, and your question should not have been answered that way. I hope you will please forgive me.

Here's a link to the manufacturers of a commercial unit:

If I were considering buying someone else's commercial unit, it would probably be theirs.

You may like to read their testimonial section, I found it fascinating and very informative.

They also make and sell an electrode array which can be used in anyone else's unit. I thought that was pretty cool..

My own situation is a little complicated, so I am going forward with this carefully, until I know what's happening for sure. After I know, *then* I can make definite statements to folks, but until then I can only suspect (albeit strongly) a positive outcome.

If you want to build your own ionic footbath, I will certainly help in any way that I can. Just ask.

I am PMing you with this message also- just in case.

Stay well,

Ladylove
