Fe/Mn Issues with Well Water

Hello. My family and I are having issues with minerals in our water. I'm fairly certain it is Fe and Mn. Mn was high in a 2008 lab test when we purchased the home and we also have awful orange/rust-colored staining in our shower, on fixtures etc., so i'm pretty sure it's Iron.

I was looking at this thread: http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/plumbing/msg0522372229503.html?10

The only difference for us is that we drink bottled water and we're trying to limit the cost of the treatment/filtering of our well water to remediate the above problem. So, the actual drinking of the water is not an issue. We'd just like to remove staining from clothing, fixtures etc. and save our pipes.

Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated.
