THE BEST-KEPT SECRET OF JAPAN’S TOP GROOMERS.
NOW REVEALED.

GAME-CHANGING.
Every once in a while, a great product appears on the market and changes how things work. The Grooming Tab is one such product. Because there’s never been any solvent able to clean mineral waste, up until its invention. It’s the world’s first bath tablet, and it’s made and patented in Japan.

3 REASONS WHY YOUR PET NEEDS THE GROOMING TAB
Deep cleanse without shampoo and soap!
The difference between the Grooming Tab and regular pet shampoos is substantial. Because the Grooming tab surpasses regular shampoos as a cleansing agent. It washes off sticky sweat, sebum, and mineral waste without the use of any synthetic chemical compound. Regular pet shampoos can only get rid of grease and dirt, without removing old keratin and mineral waste in clogged pores.
〜 I don’t need shampoo to smell purrfect!

Removes what regular pet shampoos can’t – the source of pet odour.
The root cause of pet odours is stale fats sticking to mineral waste getting trapped in your pet’s fur coat and between the paw pads. Regular pet shampoos cannot remove mineral waste but the Grooming Tab can!
Your odour is still making me giddy.
Go bathe again with the Grooming Tab.
And then we’ll play.
Again?! Hmmph!!!

Improve health and immunity
Bicarbonate ions dissolved in water infused with the Grooming Tab helps to expand blood vessels to promote increased blood flow. Your pet’s metabolism subsequently increases, resulting in improved immunity.
Using the Grooming Tab has made me
look better,
smell better,
and feel better!
YAY!

Finally, a friend that smells like how a friend should be.
Ok, go play with yourself.
I’ll have a nap.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND
pH
The acid mantle is a fine film on the surface of the skin. It protects the stratum corneum – the porous topmost layers that keeps the outer body hydrated. When bathing, soaps and shampoos take away the acid mantle. This leaves the stratum corneum vulnerable to a host of microorganisms which then upsets the skin’s pH balance. Skin becomes more sensitive when this happens and it applies to both animals and humans.
But do you know that the skin of canines and felines is even more delicate than infants? The skin of dogs and cats is just a third the thickness of human skin. It is in fact more fragile even with a fur coating. More importantly, they have alkaline skin ranging from 7.2 – 9 for dogs to 6.8 – 8.5 for cats. This is why it is important to ensure your pet’s skin maintains an alkaline pH level.
The best thing about being a cat is you don’t have to go to school. =)




Triple action of the Grooming Tab
The triple effects of bicarbonate ions, hydrogen ions and citric acid wash off mineral dirt and silicon dirt clogged in the hair root. Bicarbonate ions and hydrogen ions makes the fur coat resilient while adding volume and a silky touch to it. Negative ions make the tissue surface shiny.
I thought it was all about carbon dioxide!

Common misconceptions on how the Grooming Tab works
Contrary to popular belief, there is little carbon dioxide involved in the effect of the Grooming Tab. The power of the Grooming Tab lies in bicarbonate ions instead of carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide is acidic (pH4 – 5), scatters into the air quickly and does not dissolve well in water. Once the Grooming Tab comes into contact with water, carbon dioxide is generated. However, it converts into bicarbonate ions and hydrogen ions almost immediately to dissolve in the water.
Bicarbonate is present in all body fluids and organs in both humans and animals. It plays a major role in the acid-base balances within the body. Unfortunately, bicarbonate deficiencies occur when we don’t exercise regularly or when the vascular system begins to deteriorate as less oxygen is delivered to the cells.
When the body absorbs bicarbonate ions through the skin, it causes the body to synthesise and release nitric oxide into the inner lining of a blood vessel. Nitric oxide dilates blood vessels thereby increasing blood circulation and oxygen absorption. When oxygen is absorbed, bicarbonate ions and carbon dioxide within the body are excreted as by-products. This process helps in the maintenance of the pH of blood as well as homeostasis of the body.
They cheated our feelings. =(

A MESSAGE FROM THE INVENTOR
The period was pre-WWII. I got posted by my employers then to Nauheim, Germany. I saw the natural carbonated springs there used in medical care facilities. It gave me the inspiration to create a bath supplement. One that could simulate the effect of natural carbonated springs in the comforts of our own homes.
Retirement finally gave me the opportunity to realize this dream. I did thorough research on natural carbonated springs found in Germany and Japan. I knew I wanted to replicate the same chemical reactions from them. But the real challenge for me was to make a bath supplement that triggers all of those effects. I remember the period when I embarked on the development of the carbonated bath tablet. No one was able to combine bicarbonate and citric acid then.
I finally succeeded in developing a PEG micro capsule granulation technique. This technique generates carbon dioxide bubbles slowly enough to convert into bicarbonate ions in water. The bath supplement we manufacture creates water with the same composition to those of carbonated springs. They replicate the water quality of the natural carbonate springs found in Bad Nauheim, Germany and the famous Nagayu hot springs in Oita prefecture, Japan. We have received many compliments from our customers since The Grooming Tab’s inception in 2009. The overwhelming response is nothing short of a pleasant surprise.
Our mission is to promote health and longevity through a process as simple and easy as bathing. We wish all customers good health through bathing!
