Ion Foot Cleanse at Healthy Measures Spa

My feet feel light, airy and fresh.

They feel as though they've been vigorously rubbed with an exfoliating peppermint scrub.

But they haven't. Instead, they just spent 30 minutes soaking in an Ion Cleanse.

Yesterday, I called up the Healthy Measures Spa and Wellness Center to gather information for a story I'm writing.

The owner, Sharon, invited me to stop by for an Ion Foot Cleanse.

I'm not one to pass up a spa treatment, especially an unusual spa treatment, so of course I took her up on her offer.

Sharon and I chatted about wellness and holistic health as my feet soaked away in this Ion Cleansing bath.

Even though the water started out clean and clear, in half and hour, the water had turned a disgusting puke-colored orangish brown with a white film floating on top. Gross!

Even grosser was the thought that all that gunk was toxins that had been lurking in my joints, lymph nodes and liver. Ugh.

If I were ardently seeking a path to greater holistic wellness, a series of 12 Ion Foot Cleansing sessions might actually be a treatment plan in which I would enlist.

It was noninvasive and pleasant, so long as I didn't spend too much time inspecting the color of my water.

But do I feel any better?

Actually, yes. Three hours have passed since I dried my toes and drove back home, and yet my feet are tingling still. They do feel clean and pampered and massaged and ... well, different.
