Yes, There are two ways other than to the feet that you can apply detox pads.

When we eat meat, it creates toxins in our body, makes us sick, and makes us crave addictive substances. This is why we want coffee, dessert, alcohol, and tobacco after a meat meal. The slaughter process is unsanitary and poorly regulated, so meat is often contaminated with dangerous bacteria. Animals raised for meat are given toxic feed, antibiotics, and hormones that remain in their meat and contaminate our food. See similar questions...

Chronic pain may be continuous, or it may come and go, but its hallmark is that it lasts for months or years.

Chronic pain can lead to enormous costs physically, emotionally, and financially, for example, if pain causes you to take sick days or go on disability. See similar questions...

Yes. In fact, Detoxi-Pad may be used on other areas for a localized effect.

Note that you cannot stick Detoxi-Pad anywhere on the body and expect it to relieve pain. The specific area must have meridians that can react to the wood vinegar. A good indication is the discoloration of the pads after use. See similar questions...

individual walking in MBTs automatically attains a more upright posture rather than a forward leaning gait. This leads to an increased activation of the lumbo-sacral musculature due to the alteration of trunk angle relative to the pelvis when wearing MBTs. When muscles start to work harder they can be painful. This should normally resolve within a few days. See similar questions...

Microwave ovens are a technological breakthrough and a great convenience. However, microwave ovens are also a source of radiation that contaminates our food and our home. Despite reassurances from the FDA and oven manufacturers, microwave radiation is a potential cause of serious illness, including cancer. Homeowners can buy radiation-detecting devices, but these devices are notoriously unreliable. So I prefer to err on the side of safety and avoid microwave ovens. See similar questions...

Pets are a mixed blessing. They give us companionship and comfort, but they also give us allergies, parasites, and viruses. These diseases may be minor, or they may be life-threatening. For example, pet allergy can make us cough and sneeze, but pet viruses can cause cancer. The connection between cats and Hodgkins disease (lymphoma) has been observed by many doctors. I have seen this connection several times in my practice. See similar questions...

Physiology books tell us that the average rate of breathing while at rest is approximately 12 to 14 times a minute (a rate which qigong and yoga practitioners, breathing therapists, and others have demonstrated is faster than it needs to be). In observing our breath, many of us may notice that we breathe even faster than this so-called average rate. Many of us, without knowing it, habitually "hyperventilate"-that is, we take quick, shallow breaths from the top of our chest. See similar questions...
