[TCbartk usbank.com Hwr W k m » <enantanté Member I OK Minger/Krahn offer unique new service Vernonia residents, Sue Minger and Marie Krahn, are offering a new and unique serv ice, a foot bath from NRG Works. The NRG is a foot bath sys tem that utilizes a mechanical system of energy and water to enhance the bio-electric field of the body as a therapeutic aid for increased vitality and well being. The NRG Works module uses the water to set up a neg atively enhanced field with your body to complete a conductive cycle so your body, via your flu id system, becomes negatively charged. The disease condi tions (bacteria, infections, viruses, and parasites) of the body are associated with posi tively charged ions. The foot bath allows the fluid systems of the body to carry the disease conditions out through the der mal layers and into the foot bath water. Now, what’s it like to get a foot bath; You take your shoes off, put your bare feet in a tub of warm water and relax for 20 to 40 minutes. The water changes color during the bath and the changes represent the disease conditions (toxins) leaving the body. There is no pain, though if there is any discomfort, the feet can be removed or the time shortened. Afterwards, different people describe the results in different ways. Some feel they have been energized, some that they have been cleansed, some feel that different body parts have been detoxed and positively affected. The foot bath can be repeat ed as desired, as often as every other day. Minger has a long-standing interest in herbal therapy and other alternative treatments, and sells Nature Sunshine herbal products. In addition, she has taken classes in iridol- ogy and is a second degree Reiki, working toward the third Sue Minger and Marie Krahn, LMT, have brought NRG Works foot bath to Vernonia and offer other services, too. taking any treatment or taking degree in Reiki.
