I am intrigued by how the foot pads work, claiming to detox your body through reflexology points on our feet. I have tried another brand before, although I did not use them on a regular basis. Kinoki offers the detox pads at a much more affordable rate than comparable products. The pad definitely pulls some dark toxins out of me when I use it, however they are supposed to get lighter with each use. Either I am really toxic or they do not work that well, because after 1 week they are still dark. I certainly do not feel any worse, but since I have only used them for 1 week, I have not had the major energy difference that they advertised. Regardless, detoxing our bodies is important so that those toxins do not build up and cause cancer or other problems- after all, toxic metals and chemicals do not belong in our bodies! So, I am happy to use the pads to detox my body. The cost is worth it!
