The skin is an organ of elimination just like the kidneys, lymph, lungs, liver and colon. More than a kilo of waste products are discharged through the skin every day provided the pores are not blocked. If the pores are blocked then the elimination of toxins becomes less effective and the other eliminative organs will have to increase their labour to compensate – probably becoming overworked. Washing with soap and water is not effective enough to assist in waste elimination.

Rather than wetting the skin to clean it you brush the skin while it is dry. The skin brushing will change the health of your whole body. Improving your circulation, skin softness and quality, skin infections and irritations, whole body freshness, prevent colds and rejuvenate your system. Make it a regular habit and see the benefits. By all means enjoy your soapy baths and showers but use dry skin brushing as a regular routine detox.

It's important to brush the skin in the right way. Brush in the direction of your heart. To brush the skin start at the soles of your feet and work your way up your legs, your front and your back, brushing as vigorously as you feel able. Next do your hands and up your arms. Do not do your face but give the back of your next and your scalp a good go! Don't forget, brush in the direction of your heart.

Use a separate brush for each member of the family for hygiene reasons and don't forget to wash the brush every couple of weeks.
