5 legit ways to detoxAuthor: Jessica

When it comes to cleansing your body of toxins, there are certainly some great home remedies, but nothing beats getting yourself taken care of at your local detox spa. Here’s how detox programs at a detox spa stack up against their DIY counterparts. Colonic irrigation vs. laxative If your goal is to rid your colon of waste, laxatives usually work pretty well. Still, even with the most effective laxatives, there’s always going to be waste that clings to your colon walls — this can buildup overtime. As such, your colon is never really clean. On the other hand, colon hydrotherapy seems to be a surefire way of getting the job done. It consists of warm water that is gently instilled through a tube that thoroughly flushes the colon, doing away with millions of bacteria. Far infrared sauna vs. standard sauna Standard saunas feel great for some, while others find them incredibly uncomfortable – especially those with breathing problems. Even if they’re enjoyable, they turn out to be pretty inefficient when it comes to purifying the body. It’s the job of a sauna to heat the room, and the heat of the room then makes you sweat. Far infrared saunas though, heat your body directly using infrared light. Many agree that they’re far more comfortable than your run-of-the-mill sauna, and several studies have shown them to be more effective, too. Detox foot-bath vs. homemade foot bath Soaking your feet at home with a bucket of warm water might be relaxing, but it doesn’t do much for you when it comes to detoxification. Detox foot-baths use an electrical current to properly perform the detox. A handful of studies have reported that detox foot-baths change the body’s pH levels – which is crucial in the detox-process. Lymphatic massage vs. standard massage A firm massage feels great to most people, and it has been shown to relax muscles, relieve stress, and lower blood pressure. When it comes to aiding the lymphatic system, though, there are better methods. Lymphatic massage is a specific type of massage, which employs very light pressure. The goal of this gentle-touch massage is to help move around a fluid called “lymph.” Proper lymph flow is absolutely necessary when it comes to getting rid of toxins. Want to learn more?
