Acupeds® - "at work" while YOU sleep
All natural and non invasive foot patches

As adults, we have around 400 to 800 man-made chemicals lodged in our bodies. Normal body elimination processes do not remove all these chemicals and in time our bodies begin to show signs of "aging".

Food , drinks, polluted air, medications, stress, diseases, cosmetics, synthetics plus home and workplace chemicals all contribute to your body's toxin load which accumulates daily and builds up over the years.

We invite you to take the time to compare Acupeds to other foot patches.

Detoxify as you sleep! 

Acupeds Detox Patches are a natural detoxification product designed to gently and effectively absorb toxins from your body – at night while you sleep . Acupeds are individual sachets a little larger than a tea bag. One sachet is placed on the sole of each foot with an adhesive strip like a large band-aid just before going to sleep. Upon waking the expired patch is removed. It's an easy, gentle and effective way to detoxify.

Detoxification helps return the body to its natural balance and may help prevent degenerative conditions, disease and premature aging by naturally boosting immunity and normal metabolic function. The pads are based on the wisdom gained from years of medical experience and research in Asia where approximately 10 million foot pads are used each month.

The Concept:

Our bodies have a very complex detoxification system designed to eliminate toxins from our bodies. Our bodies use the kidneys and liver to process the toxins and then excretes them primarily through the lungs and skin. The foods and beverages we eat and drink, the air we breathe, medications, stress, personal hygiene products, synthetics, chemicals found in the home and workplace all contribute to the body's toxic load. The increasing toxin load from the modern day environment and lifestyle overwhelms our natural detoxification system and these toxins then accumulate and build up over time. Studies show that the modern day adult body has around 400 to 800 man-made chemicals stored in various tissues. This gradual accumulation of toxins can lead to degenerative conditions, disease and premature aging.

The eastern medicine traditions have held the view for hundreds of years that toxins are primarily stored in the feet, furthest away from the vital organs to protect them. Being lowest point in the body, the feet also have the hardest job of pumping blood back up to the heart. Eastern medicine also understands that toxic accumulation leads to many degenerative diseases and aging. There is an Asian expression that says “aging comes from the foot”.

In Asian medicine, the feet are considered the second heart, or a “telegraph center” of the body, with over 62 acupuncture or reflexology points relating to the major organs in the body. In general, the points on the top third of the foot relate to the organs in the top third of the body, the points around the arch relate to organs around the center of the body and the heel relates to the organs in the lower third of the body. “Yong Chwean” is a key point in the sole of the foot in Chinese acupuncture. In Mandarin this is translated as “gushing water spring” and is believed in the Asian traditions to be the primary detoxification point in the foot.

The lymphatic system – body's natural detoxification system - performs its heaviest detoxification functions during the sleep cycle. Also when we sleep, the body's fluid tends to gather in the head and toes, where the body is already storing the toxins.

How the pads work:

The pads contain a formulation of herbs and tourmaline. The all natural healing herbs are formulated using Chinese medical wisdom to draw toxins and the tourmaline aids the effectiveness of the process. Tourmaline emits a form of natural Far Infra Red (FIR) which has many wonderful effects on the body. FIR produces a form of radiant heat which is simply a form of energy that heats an object directly, without having to heat the surrounding air. The tissues in our bodies produce their own infrared energy for warmth and tissue repair. Tissue production of infrared energy is associated with a variety of healing responses. At times, the infrared energy in our tissues may require a “boost” to a higher level to ensure the fullest healing possible for tissue repair. Body tissues that need an infrared boost selectively absorb infrared rays from an external source. This phenomenon is called "resonant absorption." The pads create this effect.

Warming a part of the body produces “reflex-modulated vasodilation”, which increases blood flow in the capillaries. The foot has one of the highest concentrations of capillaries in the body. Increased circulation provides the transport needed to help the lymphatic system operate at peak efficiency. This effect can help evacuate edema, which can help inflammation, decrease pain, and help speed healing.

This warmth also opens the pores in the skin on the foot. The open pores and the dilated capillaries help the herbs in the Acupeds to more effectively draw and absorb the accumulated wastes from osmotic pressure through the skin from the blood and lymph systems.

How to use Acupeds:

Acupeds Detoxification Patches are an extremely effective and convenient way to help boost body's own efforts to detoxify and retain balance. The all-natural ingredients are formulated into a sterile white sachet about the size of a large tea bag. One sachet is applied to the sole of each foot with an adhesive strip similar to band-aid. The sachets are applied to the feet overnight, when the body detoxifies. When you first put the patches on you will most likely notice a slight warmth or pleasant tingling effect. This is from the tourmaline contained in the patches – and tells you the pad is working. Upon awakening, remove the expired patches, wash your feet and disposed of the used Acupeds.

You will notice the used pads come off the feet moist and have turned a darker color and most often have acquired a unique odor. This is from the herbs in the pad. The pad turns color as it absorbs moisture and toxins from your foot - much like a dry tea bag turns color and emits an aroma as it absorbs water. In some cases the color and odor decreases as you detox.

How Often to use Acupeds:

The length of the detoxification period varies depending on the individual. For most adults we recommend using Acupeds for ten consecutive days, followed by two or three days break to let the lymphatic system rest and then a second round of ten days with the patches. In more severe cases longer may be required. How often you perform a cleanse is individual, just like any other form of cleansing. We like to coach people to “listen to the wisdom of your body” in determining how often to detox using Acupeds. Say for example your round of initial detoxification helps you sleep better and have increased energy (common testimonial). If you notice that you are not sleeping well and have low energy, then it is probably time for another round of detox. There are no contraindications from using Acupeds.
