The Day Stay Natural Detox Centre recognises the remedial properties of immersion in water, the usefulness of alternating hot and cold temperatures and the known curative properties of herbs, minerals and salts.  We have combined these three important elements to produce the Detox Mineral and Herbal Soak Therapy shown below:

Kneipp Foot Bathing 

Kneipp Foot baths have traditionally been used as a tool to improve circulation, to ease congestion in the abdomen & pelvic area and as a treatment for colds and congestion.   Blocked sinus passage ways may be cleared, headaches relieved and the nervous system revitalised.  The Day Stay Natural Detox Centre uses the Kneipp cold- foot bath, after spending time in the Infrared Sauna and before the Sitz Bath.  
 

Sitz Bath
 
Warm water is combined with Minerals, Trace Minerals, Salts and Herbs and used in a traditional ‘hip-bath’.  Using the Sitz bathing principles (covering just the lower portion of the torso), this therapeutic bathing invigorates and stimulates the organs which are covered by highly mineralised water.  Blood circulation is increased to vital organs and to the lower spine, buttocks and thighs. 

The highly mineralised and herbal rich water provides an excellent source of essential minerals and trace elements, including valuable iodine and selenium. 

Low mineral levels reduce our protection from harmful toxins and chemicals in our environment.  Good mineral levels encourage effective detoxification and assist in the balancing and maintaining of body acid/alkaline levels. Our body needs balanced body chemistry in order to heal and to maintain good health.  Unbalanced acid/alkaline levels commonly occur when acid levels get too high and this is a causative factor in many diseases – particularly all forms of arthritis.

Alternating heat and cold significantly benefits all body functions and stimulates and revitalises the skin.  This reactivates the functions of the endocrine glands including the adrenals.

Minerals & Herbals

The Day Stay Natural Detox Centre combines an array of mineral salts valued for their high and diverse content of naturally derived macro and micro minerals.  These mixed minerals are combined with herbals also high in minerals, trace minerals and vitamins.
