How to set-up the Hydrolactic System
Before you place your feet in the foot spa, make sure it is protected by a clear plastic disposable liner. Then, add warm water to a depth of 5cm or 2 inches and half a teaspoon of table salt to create a saline solution. The hydrolactic element is connected to the foot spa and then placed in the solution. |
How to get started once the Hydrolactic System is set-up
Sitting comfortably with your feet in the solution before turning on the foot spa. When activated, the hydrolactic element's green light flashes 20 times. This indicates how many sessions remain (next time it will indicate 19 and then 18 and so on). This unique feature helps you record sessions used so you know when to re-order a new hydrolactic element. The light will then remain a constant green for the duration of the session, signalling the beginning of the 30-minute session. After 30 minutes the hydrolactic element's light will flash continuously, indicating the automatic end of the session. |

What is a Hydrolactic Session?
It's a quick, safe, non-invasive way to lower lactic acid and help your body prepare for, and recover from, physical activity. The Hydrolactic System creates a unique ionic charge that will work with your body. The Hydrolactic session takes 30 minutes. During this time, all the blood in the average adult will have passed through the feet (this occurs approximately once every 24 to 26 minutes). The Hydrolactic process has a rebalancing effect on your body's natural recovery system.

Will every person respond the same?
No. Your results are individual to you. Some people have a quick response that is quite noticeable and others may have a more subtle, slower response. How often should I use the system? Athletes can use it before and after training sessions. Drink plenty of water during and after your Hydrolactic session to keep hydrated. Why does the water change colour? Do not be alarmed if the water changes colour as this is quite normal. In most cases, it can change to yellow, brown, red, green or even black. Colour may vary from person to person and from one session to another. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the process of ionization in the salt solution reacts with chemicals present in the water. This can happen without feet being present. Secondly, and more importantly, the discolouration also occurs due to the toxic discharge from the 2,000 eccrine glands on the soles of each foot. Is it only for athletes? No, we can all benefit from it. The Hydrolactic System can assist and encourage our body to re-balance itself. Can anyone use the system? No, it is recommended that all clients complete a contra-indication form prior to the session. Not recommended for people who: - suffer from epilepsy. - have open wounds on the feet. - have recently had surgery. - are pregnant or lactating. - have extreme blood pressure problems. - have had an organ transplants - suffer from psychotic episodes or seizures. - have a pacemaker or use a heartbeat regulating machine. Hydrolactic Systems are hydrotherapy foot spas. They are NOT medical devices. If yes is the answer to any of the above, we recommend the session is not undertaken. If in doubt on the above or if you have concerns relating to your health, please consult a physician.
