Phytacin Flush (Herbal version of Niacin Flush)$135

Have you ever heard of a Niacin Flush?

During a Niacin Flush, niacin and heat is used to detox the liver. The liver, as the primary detoxification organ of our body, plays an important role in neutralizing and removing toxins. Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin C, Zinc, and Magnesium are the most crucial vitamins and minerals needed to support the liver detoxification process.

Niacin can release the toxins and heavy metals stored up in fat cells. This special characteristic of Niacin inspired Dr. Mercola and Dr. George Yu to devise a method which helps you to safely detox your body very quickly and effectively.

What happens when an Herbalist studies the effects of the Flush, ingredients, and is an Ayurveda enthusiast? You get the natural version ➕ Pechoti method!

Not only is the Phytacin Flush a naturalistic alternative to the Niacin Flush, but we also incorporate the Pechoti method into our treatment. The "Pechoti" is behind the navel, which has more than 72,000 veins. The total amount of blood vessels we have in our body is equal to double the circumference of the earth. Applying oil in the navel heals the dryness of the eyes, poor view, the pancreas, the heels, and chapped lips, keeps the face bright, the hair healthier, for knee pain, the chills, lethargy, pain in the joints and dry skin. After you take the required amount of Phytacin (house blended), you will warm up your body for 10 minutes on our Hypervibe. Once your body has completed the movement phase, your metabolism spikes. We take this opportunity to introduce your system to the Pechoti method. In our relaxing room with vibrational tones for Digestion, our Abhyanga oil is gently poured into the belly button. Your navel is connected to a special 'Pechoti' gland in the body that can correct, heal and balance nervous connections present in the body. Enjoy a hand and foot massage while the oil travels. Next, your infrared Sauna session completes the process destroying toxicity in the digestive system and promoting Agni.

Of course we’ve formulated the Herbal version of Niacin. Before your Infrared Sauna session, you will take the recommended amount of Phytacin (our signature blend). Spend 15 minutes on the Hypervibe to induce a good blood flow. Your skincare specialist will then apply our signature oil, while paying special focus to the lymph and nerves around the belly button. Finally, you’re left to sweat it out in our Infrared Sauna. End your session with our Toxin Trapper drink.
