The former maker of Kinoki foot pads claimed they reduced toxins, metabolic waste and even heavy metals in the body by using an ancient Japanese form of medicine called reflexology. The foot pads are placed on the bottom of the user's feet and supposedly help draw out toxins from the body while the user sleeps. In the morning the pads are removed and discarded, allegedly along with a collection of toxins and heavy metals. The process is repeated each night over a period of two weeks to detoxify the body. Kinoki foot pads contain bamboo vinegar, natural Japanese herbs and Tourmaline. Bamboo vinegar is distilled from chopped and fermented bamboo stalks. Tourmaline is a mineral found in the pads that the manufacturer claimed draws toxins out and helps ionize the body. This combination of ingredients is what, according to the manufacturer, draws the toxins out from the body and traps them in the pad.
Step 1
Wet the wash cloth with water and ring it out so that it is just damp.
Step 2
Use the cloth to clean the bottom of your left foot.
Step 3
Open one foot pad and place it on your left foot.
Step 4
Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for your right foot. It is best to apply the pads just before you go to bed so that they will not get damaged if you walk on them.
Step 5
Remove the pads in the morning and examine the pads. On your first application you should see that the pad has become very discolored.
Step 6
Discard the pads and wash the bottom of your feet.
Step 7
