Introducing HEALING SOLE: A unique product to help improve your general well-being
Acupuncturists and health professionals have learned from ancient Chinese medicinethat the feet contain energy that links directly to organs in the body. Laboratory researchin Japan and China has created a unique product that safely draws toxins from targeted organs in the body into its own energy meridien and out through the feet.
Healing Sole works through placing holistic ingredients in packets on your solesovernight. Depending on where the packets are placed, users have reported anincrease in vitality and energy, improved sleep, circulation and a wide variety of healingproperties. You will also see the results. By morning, the white packets will show what has been absorbed overnight—they will be moist and much darker in color. As youchange the location of the packets on your soles, you will notice that some areas of yourbody have less toxins absorbed overnight than others. It is as fascinating as it is practical.
Contains: Bamboo vinegar, wood vinegar, tourmaline, chitosan, houttuynia cordata,saururus chinesis, agaricus blazei murill mushroom, Eucalyptus, starch. All ingredients are natural, safe and effectively combined in a unique formula.

Healing Soul™ is most effective when applied to the soles of the feet for several reasons. Absorption is relatively higher in the feet due to the fact that there are more sweat glands in the soles of the feet than any other part of the body, except for the palms. Wearing Healing Soul™ overnight allows longer contact with the beneficial properties in the poultice. Compresses and poultices have been used for centuries to enhance benefits of plants, herbs and essential oils and the feet have always been recognized for treating the whole body.

Ancient Chinese medicine proposed that energy links the feet to the various body parts. In AD 1017, Dr. Wang Wei said that the feet were the most sensitive parts to channel energy throughout the body. The Chinese maintain that the body's Ch'i circulates in the meridians 24 times a day and 24 times a night and that each meridian is connected to an organ. In turn, these energy pathways circulate through the feet and have been studied using the EEG, EKG and X-ray. Many techniques are centered on the soles of the feet to improve this circulation.

Tourmaline is a semi-precious stone and mineral that emits negative ions and far infrared rays. An inert, though complex negative ion mineral, tourmaline has many scientific and technological uses.
Commonly in prismatic crystals from opaque to transparent, tourmaline's unique physical properties are pyroelectric (becomes strongly charged electrically on heating and cooling) and piezoelectric (rapidly becomes charged in response to pressure). Crystals will magnetically attract dust, ashes or bits of paper to their ends when warmed and cooled*
Tourmaline galvanizes the activity of other ingredients. When used in minute amounts this mineral has the profound effect of enhancing the performance of ingredients by amplifying their overall activity. It can support the body's natural healing ability**

Chitosan is derived from chitin, the main fiber component of crustacean shells. The second most plentiful fiber found in the shell of crabs and lobsters. It is widely used for nutritional purposes of lowering body fat, reducing cholesterol levels and to remove heavy metal ions and other toxins in humans. Chitosan is a natural fiber that has a unique fat binding property that gives it the nickname of "The Fat Trapper". Chitosan applied to the skin promotes anti-fungal, anti-microbial, anti-viral and wound-healing properties."

Named after Martin Houttuyn, 18th century Dutch naturalist. The herb is a well-known Chinese medicinal plant used as a detoxicant to treat "toxic conditions" such as external sores and ulcers or internal conditions characterized by fevers, inflammations or results of viral or bacterial infections. It has been extensively studied both chemically and pharmacologically. Cordata in Japanese language definition means, "removing the poison". The whole plant is antibacterial and is said to strengthen the immune system.
Ketones and aldehydes isolated from Houttuynia Cordata appear to show anti-HIV properties* This plant is classed as an interferon inducing herb that has an important role to play in enhancing natural immunity.
Properties: Anti-inflammatory, anti-micro bacterial, diuretic, expectorant. Houttuynia Cordata is indicated for any toxic heat of the lungs in which there is thick yellow or green sputum. It can also be used for other swellings, either internally or externally, as it will help expel pus and cool the inflammation**

Agaricus Blazei Murill is traditionally known as "God's Mushroom" or "The King of Mushrooms" due to its health enhancing effects. Agaricus Blazei Murill (himematsutake) originates from Piedale, which is located in the suburbs of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Natives for many years consumed it as part of their regular diet. Several groups of researchers from various institutions from United States, Japan, and Korea reported that a regular diet of this mushroom contributes to their longevity. They verified that the polysaccharide, beta-D-glucan contained in this mushroom significantly activated the immune system, which fought off various life threatening diseases. Of all Oriental mushrooms tested, Agaricus Blazei Murill has the highest concentration of polysaccharide, beta-D-glucan*
"The broad spectrum of immuno-pharmacological activities of Beta Glucan includes not only the modification of certain bacterial, fungal, viral, and parasitic infection, but also inhibition of tumor growth." Stated by Nicholas DiLuzio, Ph.D., Department of Physiology, Tulane University School of Medicine*
"Agaricus increases the total number of all immune cells within the body and also makes individual natural killer cells more powerful." Stated by Dr. Mamdooh Ghoneum from UCLA Medical Center **
"The glutan-protein complex was the first case of an anti-tumor compound found in an edible mushroom." Stated by Dr. Takashi Mizuno **

It was the first plant able to grow after the atomic bomb event in Hiroshima. The leaves are used as a poultice to clean abscesses and boils. It is considered an antioxidant plant that helps in a variety of health conditions. It is used for counteracting poisons, relieving muscular ache, chronic fatigue, skin beauty and overall health.
American Indians used Saururus Cernuus L. as a root poultice for wounds and inflamed breast (the plant is also known as "Breastweed"). Its Asian counterpart, Saururus Chinesis, is a related species and is used to relieve inflammation in traditional Chinese medicine. It also contains novel sedative compounds. Teas of the plant are used as a wash for general illness, rheumatism, internally for stomach ailments. Subject for considerable chemical and pharmacological research in 1990*

Eucalyptus plant is probably the most powerful antiseptic of its class and the "essential oil" of eucalyptus is used in aromatherapy. Its properties are used as analgesic, antibacterial, anti-microbes, anti-catarrhal, anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antiviral, diuretic, expectorant, insect repellent, and stimulant*.
The oil from eucalyptus leaves contains eucalyptol, a chemical that makes it a very powerful antiseptic. Studies show that eucalyptol can kill some influenza viruses. Since eucalyptol loosens phlegm, it is an effective and popular ingredient in many lozenges.**
