The Power of the Chlorine Dioxide Foot Bath

Posted on by

A Natural Remedy for Common Foot Problems: When it comes to simple, affordable, and powerful home remedies, few are as versatile as the chlorine dioxide foot bath. This easy-to-prepare soak has gained attention for its ability to cleanse, oxygenate, and purify the feet, an area that often reflects the overall health of the body.

People have found that chlorine dioxide, when used as a water purification agent, may also support the body’s natural defenses against microbes, fungi, and pathogens when used externally in a non-medical way. The feet, being one of the most absorbent parts of the body, can benefit tremendously from a gentle foot soak that helps release toxins and refresh tired tissues.

What a Chlorine Dioxide Foot Bath May Help With

A chlorine dioxide foot bath has been used by many people for:

Condition / Concern How It May Help
Nail fungus (onychomycosis) Helps dissolve biofilm and oxidize fungal overgrowth under nails.
Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis) Reduces itching, burning, and flaking by neutralizing pathogens.
Foot odor and bacterial buildup Eliminates odor-causing bacteria and helps sanitize skin.
Calluses and rough skin Gently exfoliates dead tissue and promotes healthy skin turnover.
Toxic overload or heavy metal detox Through osmosis, chlorine dioxide draws toxins from the feet.
Swelling or inflammation Promotes circulation and can provide soothing relief.
General relaxation Offers a grounding, detoxifying experience after long days on your feet.

How to Prepare a Chlorine Dioxide Foot Bath

This simple recipe comes from Taylore Vance of the Reiki Ranch, who has used and shared this method for years with remarkable results.

“Here’s what I do,” Taylore explains.
“I add a short squirt of Sodium Chlorite to a shot glass with the same amount of Citric Acid. After one minute, I see a dark amber color in the shot glass. I pour that into a plastic container of hot water to soak my feet. To that mixture, I add one tablespoon of DMSO and stir it into the solution. I soak my feet until the solution gets cool. That is it! I repeat every day for two weeks.”

Let’s break it down step-by-step:

How-To Guide: Chlorine Dioxide Foot Bath

You’ll need:

  • Part 1: Sodium Chlorite Solution (usually 22.4%)
  • Part 2: Citric Acid Solution (usually 50%)
  • 1 shot glass (glass preferred for mixing)
  • 1 small plastic foot tub or basin
  • Hot (not boiling) water – enough to cover both feet
  • 1 tablespoon of DMSO (optional, but enhances absorption)

Directions:

  1. Activate the Solution
    • In the shot glass, add an equal short squirt of Sodium Chlorite (Part 1) and Citric Acid (Part 2).
    • Wait about 1 minute until the mixture turns amber or golden in color. This means the chlorine dioxide gas has formed within the liquid.
  2. Add to Water
    • Pour the activated mixture into your basin of hot water (enough to cover your feet).
  3. Add DMSO (Optional but Effective)
    • Add one tablespoon of DMSO to the water and stir well. DMSO acts as a carrier, helping the solution penetrate deeper into tissues, nails, and skin layers.
  4. Soak
    • Place both feet into the solution and soak for 20–30 minutes, or until the water cools.
    • Relax — read, meditate, or breathe deeply during this time.
  5. Rinse and Dry
    • When finished, rinse your feet with clean water, pat them dry, and allow them to breathe.
  6. Repeat
    • For fungal or stubborn issues, repeat daily for 2 weeks.

Tips for Best Results

  • Use clean containers — chlorine dioxide is reactive, so avoid metal tubs or utensils.
  • Keep away from fabrics, as chlorine dioxide can cause mild bleaching.
  • Be consistent. Daily use over 10–14 days often provides the best results.
  • Listen to your body. If irritation occurs, shorten soak times or reduce frequency.
  • Optional boost: Add a teaspoon of Epsom salt or sea salt for additional mineral support.

Why It Works

Chlorine dioxide is a powerful oxidizer, not a poison. It does not build up in the body — instead, it selectively targets and neutralizes unwanted microbes, fungi, and toxins. When used topically, its action is mild yet effective, helping to cleanse and oxygenate the tissues while supporting a balanced environment for healing.

When combined with DMSO, absorption through the skin increases, allowing deeper tissues and nail beds to receive the benefits. Many users report that their nails begin to grow out clear and healthy again after consistent use.

Cautions

This method is intended for external use only. Chlorine dioxide in this context is sold as a water purifier, and its use for health applications is considered off-label. Always use common sense: if irritation occurs, reduce exposure or stop use.

In Closing

The chlorine dioxide foot bath is a powerful example of how simple, inexpensive natural remedies can support the body’s return to balance. Whether you’re battling foot fungus, tired feet, or just want to detox and relax, this gentle daily ritual can make a remarkable difference.

As Taylore Vance says,

“It’s simple, it’s natural, and it works.”

 

 

Chlorine Dioxide: How I Helped My Cats (and Myself) Detox Naturally

Posted on by

I want to tell you a little story about my kitties, and how I discovered something that worked better than anything I could get from the vet’s office. You see, like many people, I used to believe I had to follow all the “official” advice about keeping my cats healthy—get the shots, use the chemical flea drops, feed the commercial food. But over the years, I began to notice that my sweet little fur babies weren’t doing so well. They were sluggish, sometimes sick, and one even started losing her beautiful, shiny coat.

Then it hit me: all those chemicals, metals, and toxins in the shots, the food, and even the tap water were building up in their little bodies—just like they had been in mine.

That’s when I decided to do something different.

I had already been using chlorine dioxide myself as part of my own healing journey. Years ago, I was struggling with Lyme disease. Within just three weeks of taking chlorine dioxide, the symptoms began to fade. After two years, I felt completely well again—no more pain in the joints, no more brain fog, no more fatigue. I took it every day, eight times a day, seven days a week, for about two dollars a week. That’s cheaper than one co-pay at the doctor’s office!

So when I saw what was happening with my cats, I thought, Why not help them detox the same way I helped myself?

How I Gave Chlorine Dioxide to My Cats

First things first: never use a metal dish. Chlorine dioxide works electrically, so it interacts with metal. I use glass or ceramic bowls only.

I mix up a little solution and add five drops of chlorine dioxide to their drinking water. I let them drink that for about a week. Then, for the next week, they just get fresh spring water.

After that, I switch to giving them Silver Water (from Wayne Rowland’s Silver Water brand) in their water dish for a week—about one ounce each day. I rotate between the two.

These two natural remedies are like gentle, safe antibiotics, without side effects, without prescriptions, and without draining your bank account.

Chlorine dioxide works on an electrical frequency level. Our bodies, and our cats’ bodies, run on a natural negative electrical charge. Things that don’t belong, like parasites, heavy metals, chemical toxins, and bad bacteria, often carry a positive charge. Chlorine dioxide targets these positive charges and neutralizes them, turning them into harmless by-products like water and oxygen.

If your cat’s body doesn’t have any of that “trash” inside, the chlorine dioxide simply passes through. That’s why it’s so gentle and effective, it only goes after what shouldn’t be there.

It doesn’t poison; it purifies.

The Media Lies About It

Some folks call it “bleach,” but that’s just a smear campaign. It isn’t bleach, sodium chlorite is not salt, and chlorine dioxide isn’t bleach. The big pharmaceutical companies and their media partners don’t want people, or their pets, using something that actually works and costs pennies instead of thousands.

Have you noticed?

  • YouTube took down all the videos with testimonials about chlorine dioxide.
  • Amazon removed books that mentioned MMS (Miracle Mineral Supplement).
  • Wikipedia labels it dangerous—yet millions of people all over the world have used it safely for decades.

President Kennedy once said: Don’t believe the media. And he was right.

My Results

Within a few weeks of using chlorine dioxide in my cats’ water, I noticed their energy returning. Their fur looked glossier, their eyes clearer, and their playfulness came back. They were happy again, and so was I.

Now, I use chlorine dioxide as a gentle detox whenever I think they’ve been exposed to something toxic. I rotate it with Silver Water, give them natural food, and lots of love.

And me? I’m still chlorine-dioxide strong, Lyme-free, and living proof that nature’s remedies can do what big pharma cannot.

If you’re a holistic pet parent like me, you probably already know that the best care for your animals is simple, natural, and full of love.

Chlorine dioxide is one of those gifts from nature that helps both humans and animals stay balanced, detoxified, and vibrantly alive.

Don’t let fear or misinformation keep you from learning. Read, research, and trust your intuition. Our bodies, and our pets’ bodies, know how to heal when given the right support.
