Detox

Detox Wrap

This wrap is currently being used at the Oscars in U.S.A.!

The Detox Wrap from Shape Changers is an all natural, guaranteed way to achieve inch reduction, detoxify the body, cleanse the skin and leave you feeling totally rejuvenated with a smoother and silkier skin texture.

Your body is wrapped with specially formulated sea clay that acts as a giant poultice drawing toxins out from the body. As the toxins are drawn out the soft tissue is compressed and compacted as the skin regains elasticity by being detoxified thereby creating a smoother and firmer muscle base over which the soft tissue lies.

It is important to note that this wrap process is not dehydrative -therefore weight loss through water loss is extremely minimal – this means you will not regain inches lost by drinking a glass of water.

 

What is it?

When you experience a Detox Wrap your entire body will be pampered.

The special natural clay removes toxins that are held in and around the fat cells resulting in an inch loss that is guaranteed to stay off for at least 30 days.

Your skin will be exfoliated and cleansed with loose saggy skin rejuvenated. Areas such as the bottom and thighs can be lifted and re-contoured within the 1 hour treatment. People with cellulite, stretch marks, eczema or psoriasis will be thrilled with extra benefits from the soothing clay. Cellulite is drastically reduced, stretch marks are soothed and skin disorders are calmed.

 

The Routine

There is no need to be nervous. Your therapist is dedicated to your well being.

You will firstly be asked to complete a short questionnaire which will guide your therapist as to what results you are hoping to achieve. Measurements will then be taken from your body and charted. You will be kept warm throughout the treatment with blankets.

After the hour you will be unwrapped and asked to towel yourself down. There is no visible residue left and your skin is smooth and silky. There is no need to shower. Measurements will be re-taken and the difference calculated.

 

A Course of Wraps

The inch loss is accumulative and it is quite possible for a client to reduce their size without losing weight over 3 wraps. Clients who are dieting and exercising would notice better results. Larger clients would benefit from a course of wraps as it is impossible to get maximum results in only one treatment.

Because the inches lost do not return after a few glasses of water it is obvious we can only wrap someone a limited number of times before they are, what Shape Changers call “wrapped out. This means the point at which the client has accumulated the maximum inch loss. It really depends on the size and lifestyle of the client as to how many wraps would be required to achieve this “wrapped out” state. Once achieved, the client would have to diet and exercise to continue inch loss. However, further wraps would continue to benefit the skin by deep cleansing, contouring and tightening the soft fatty tissue and also detoxifying the body. Many clients experience a sense of well being. In order to maintain your shape and inch loss Shape Changers recommend having a wrap once every 2 months.

 

Aftercare

Although your treatment in the salon has been completed, the clay solution is still in your skin and the detoxification process can continue for a further 3-4 days allowing further inch loss.

You can greatly assist the process by retaining the solution in the pores, showering only in tepid water, limiting the soap to underarms, groin and feet areas only. Creams and lotions that could be absorbed into the pores and inhibit the desired actions of the retained solution should be avoided. The wrap is wonderful for dry skin so, these products should not be needed.

After 3-4 days you can return to your normal routine.

After your wrap you should drink plenty of water, around 3 pints a day. Things that are fairly toxic such as tea, coffee, sugar, salt, alcohol, cigarettes and fried foods should be avoided or at least reduced. However, the most important instruction is to drink plenty of water.

 

Exclusions and cautions

People who are pregnant.
People who suffer from emphysema or phlebitis.

The questions on the health chart are to advise the wrapper of your general health and to inform you of the clay's benefits if you suffer from certain problems:

The treatment is suitable for diabetics - the health chart will warn of potential hypo symptoms.
Fine for veins etc, but the wrap will not be done too tightly.
Smokers will notice the smell in the bandages and an improvement to their skin.
High/Low blood pressure: fine but good circulation would be ensured by again not wrapping too tightly.

Detox Foot Spa

 

The Treatments
The relaxing 30 minute treatment involves placing your feet into a spa bowl filled with warm salted water. An Energizing Cartridge creates a flow of electrons and a bio energetic field that provides a relaxing and enjoyable treatment. The feet have an amazing 2000 pores in each foot and therefore offer one of the best points to administer the treatment which is both efficient and convenient.

The Bio Energizer re balances and harmonizes by sending signals up through the lymph glands to stimulate the detox process.

The Bio Energizer is used in hospitals around the world for hypo hydrosis (sweaty hands and feet) cases. In addition it also helps to cure the symptoms of athlete's foot.

Results have been excellent. Clients report hugely increased feelings of well being and with over a thousand testimonies gathered this is an outstanding aid to wellness.

Modern lifestyle takes its toll on your body more so than you realize. This becomes particularly apparent when examining the balance of bio-energy in your body's cells.

When your cells are functioning correctly they allow vital nutrients to be absorbed into your body, which in turn results in the elimination of unwanted toxins.

Your cells bio-energy can also be unbalanced by:

• Poor diets – food additives, processed foods etc
• A lack of fresh fruit and vegetables
• Little or no regular exercise
• Drugs and anaesthetics
• Illness and disease
• Stress and worry
• Smoking
• Alcohol
• Joints problems: i.e. arthritis
• Insomnia
• Poor circulation
• Liver and kidney dysfunction

Any of these can cause poor nutritional absorption which will, in turn, stop the cells from functioning correctly resulting in the inability to rid the body of unwanted toxins.
Excessive toxins have many adverse effects on the body, which can include:

• Bad skin, blemished or congested
• Colds, flu and sinus problems
• Lethargy and tiredness
• Headaches and migraines
• Breath and body odour

A course of Bio-Energiser Detox Foot Spa treatments can help re balance your body and is a significant advancement in aiding wellness and a feeling of well being.

 

The Benefits
The Bio-Energiser Detox Foot Spa starts the process of re balancing your body's bio-energy. Effectively re balancing the cells equilibrium of positive and negative ions which, in turn, ‘kick starts' the dispersal of the unwanted toxins.

The renewed re-balancing of the cells ensures re-hydration resulting in optimum efficiency of their function to extract nutrients and dispose of unwanted waste.

The result will be renewed energy levels, both physical and mental, with a general feeling of well being.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will the treatment last for?
The treatment time is 30 minutes, though if you are having a Bio-Energiser treatment from a complementary therapist or at a beauty salon, there is likely to be additional time taken up in having a professional consultation and often a free foot pampering afterwards.

Will I feel any sensation during the treatment?
This depends. Some people do experience tingling sensations, these can be in your feet, legs or arms.

Will I suffer any side effects from the treatment?
Generally no. However, some people have experienced mild headaches, or mild flu like symptoms, after treatment. Drinking plenty of water during the treatment cycle will reduce these symptoms or totally prevent them.

Do I need to do anything during the treatment?
During a professional therapy session you will be asked to (and assisted to) stand 2-3 times through the course of the treatment for 1 minute. This allows the electrical energy to pass more freely around the body.

How many treatments should I have?
Ideally one or two per week for the first 6 treatments. It is then recommended to have a minimum of 1 treatment every two weeks to maintain optimum levels of detoxification.

Is there anyone who should not have treatments?
Anyone who suffers from epilepsy, has a pacemaker fitted, has had organ implants, if you are pregnant, under the age of 10, has any open wounds or abrasions on their feet should not have treatments.

Why does the water change colour?
There will be a reaction between the array and the saline solution, which will give a light orange/yellow tint to the water. This is a natural occurrence and is the sodium being drawn out of the salt by the current.

The toxins expelled from your system will also contribute to the discolouration of the water, but this will diminish over the course of regular treatments as fewer and fewer toxins are released. The water will get gradually lighter over a course of treatments but will not ever be completely clear as there are trace toxins naturally present in tap water.

Why does there appear to be deposits floating on top of the Water?
Again, this can be as a result of the reaction between the array and saline solution. Or, it can be deposits drained from the lymph glands and or pores.
