Tissue Toxicity
Our bodies are amazing, with our excretory organs constantly eliminating the toxins we create as the by-product of our digestive and metabolic processes. But unfortunately, due to modern lifestyles and industrial pollution, we are constantly bombarded by environmental toxins from our food, air and water supplies, intoxicants and from the use of drugs – both medical and recreational.
This overload of toxins is more than our bodies can handle, leading to a state of toxicity and lowering our body pH to an over acid condition known as acidosis. This results in poor health and can lead to a number of chronic and deadly diseases such as arthritis, cancer and diabetes to name a few.
These diseases are caused by long term accumulation of toxins and acid wastes in the body, which creates a perfect breeding ground for germs, disease and parasites. Without this toxic, acid condition there can be no disease.
This debilitating state of tissue toxicity is generally self inflicted and cannot be corrected with pills, injections, surgery or other quick fix medical procedures.
The only way to counter self-toxification is by self-detoxification. The secret to enjoying a long and healthy life is to practice the discipline of periodic detox and be sensible when retoxing – everything in moderation.
The Wellness Spa is here to show you how to regain and protect your health and vitality using a combination of proper diet, exercise, meditation and relaxation.
We offer a number of detox programs from half day to seven days or more, depending on how much time you have and how toxic your body is!
It is important to realize that you can get strong cleansing reactions during a detox program and that you can not jump straight into our seven day ultimate cleansing program (no food) if your body is too acidic. You have to alkalize your body first by doing a pre-cleanse diet of alkalizing foods i.e. foods that are high in organic minerals (electrolytes), or by starting on a milder cleansing program, where light raw food is consumed for lunch. If you feel fine during these milder programs you may progress to the ultimate cleansing program.
