Ionic Foot Detox

An ionic foot detox pulls the toxins out of your body through your feet. An ionizing machine works to ionize the foot bath water.

This process gives the hydrogen in the water a positive charge. The positive charge attracts the negatively charged toxins in your body. The ions in the foot bath water hold a charge that enables them bind to any heavy metals and toxins in your body, similar to how a magnet works. This allows the toxins to be pulled out through the bottoms of your feet.

This is great for anyone would is looking to relax!

The Ehlers-Danlos Society is incredibly saddened to hear of the passing of Cathy Bowen, who dedicated her life to Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) advocacy after losing her son David to vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) in 1996 aged 14.

She was an inspiration in the vEDS community and it was her mission to increase vEDS awareness and education in honor of David’s memory.

"It is with great sadness that I share the loss of my mom - the legendary “VEDS Mother”, Cathy Bowen. She dedicated her life to being an Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) advocate after her 14-year-old son David’s tragic death in 1996. It was her life-long mission to increase VEDS awareness and education, and to help other families in David’s memory. Over the last 26 years, Cathy has worked with numerous EDS organizations, and was Co-Founder/Executive Director of EDS Today. Most recently she served on The VEDS Movement steering committee as their Member Emeritus.

On behalf of my whole family, I want to thank each and every person that called, texted, messaged, shared an audio/video, or gave so generously to help us in our time of need. My mom served so selflessly for so many years, and it was such a blessing for her to receive such an outpouring of love, appreciation, and honor in her final weeks. I am confident that the legacy she trail-blazed will continue and thrive in each of you. I want to extend a huge thank you to all the EDS Warriors who continue to rise, fight, and dedicate your lives to supporting one another and furthering education, awareness, and research. We love you all." - Melissa East

Our thoughts are the vEDS community, and those who knew and loved Cathy.

“Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is one of several conditions that tend to co-occur. One of the comorbid disorders is called dysautonomia. This means that the autonomic nervous system doesn’t function as it should. Symptom wise, that means high heart rate, low blood pressure, passing out, organs not functioning properly, sleep disruptions, chronic dehydration, and even paralysis in the digestive tract. I personally spent 16 days in the hospital with a feeding tube and a central hydration line placed because my body went into chaos after I had Covid. It takes a lot of medications, supplements, patience, and water to keep this system in balance; and even then that balance can be fragile. I consider my dysautonomia symptoms to be more disabling than the joint hyper mobility/dislocations that comes from Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.”

From one of our favorite people:
I was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome when I was 12 years old. I’d had joint dislocations for most of my childhood and doctors never seemed to have any answers. Finally at age 12, Shriners Hospital had an answer. It’s a connective tissue disorder that causes the body to make collagen incorrectly. So every part of the body that contains collagen is affected by this condition. That includes skin, organs, eyes, blood vessels, and even fingernails. I’ve had over 10 surgeries, some experimental, to tighten my joints; but surgeries have failed.
I’ve been a patient at Body Balance for about 12 years now. They help me manage my body’s needs so that I can continue to work, take care of my kids, and function as normally as I can. Chiropractic care is an important part of managing my needs and I don’t know what I’d do without them.

Have you seen these marks on athletes? This is called cupping. This example is closer to the intense side of cupping and is not indicated for every patient.

We utilize this modality in many patient sessions for a variety of beneficial reasons:
release of tense muscles, breaking up scar tissue, myosfascial release, increased blood and nutrient flow to the area for more rapid healing of an injury.
