[edit] I

I think the section should be kept separate and renamed Negative Air Ion Therapy. (a) The predominant use of air ionizers is not for mood regulation, but air purification. It would be silly to mix the two topics. (b) There a many kinds of ions, chemical and gaseous. "Ion Therapy" is therefore a confusing misnomer. Mt12 19:38, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Um, all gasses are made up of chemicals, you know. WhatamIdoing (talk) 23:53, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggest Merge

With Air ioniser Redheylin (talk) 23:54, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Are Air ionisers used for air purification the same machines used for ion therapy?
If not, then I think the articles can remain separate for now.
If they are the same, then I think it'd be a great idea to merge and create some re-direct pages. Yaki-gaijin (talk) 03:23, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Yes, it is the same technology. The air-purification is scientifically attested and explained but there is another effect which is statistically attested but unexplained. Redheylin (talk) 17:11, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
