    Pleased with Colon Cleanse Treatment and Retention Catheter
    It works wonders for me. No more leaking or cramps. It was well worth the investment...

    He made some of the dietary changes you suggest in your book, mostly he switched completely to raw milk and some raw meat, and began eating yogurt and more fresh foods. He removed sugar and refined flour from his diet...
    The Power of Cleansing and Detoxification is Profound
    Ten years of serious health problems gone and I was even able to put on my old running shoes and go running (rather momentous for someone who was barely able to walk for so long!)...Colonics saved my life...

    13:01:17  Dave  Hi.
    13:01:40  Larry  Sparse crowd today?
    13:02:52  DeeDee  Welcome everyone! Sorry I am late. I had signing in difficulties today.
    13:03:13  DeeDee  Any questions or topics of interest today?
    13:03:20  Dave  You're forgiven, lol
    13:03:27  Larry  Still awaiting my HTMA report. Hoped it would be here today but no luck.
    13:03:28  DeeDee  Thank you!
    13:03:54  Larry  Essential oils / hypothyroidism?
    13:04:06  DeeDee  I am sorry that is late, Larry. I would think it would have gotten to you by now.
    13:05:00  Larry  It is over an hour away!! LOL
    13:05:07  Dave  Re my e-mail of May 1, regarding getting on schedule after colonic/thorough enema series: my local therapist also recommended senna, in tea form, and seems to work well.
    13:06:05  Dave  Maybe your advice would helpful to others here.
    13:06:16  DeeDee  Some oils for hypothyroidism are lemongrass, spearmint myrtle, peppermint, clove and myrrh.
    13:06:53  Larry  Good... Some of those are in the blend you made for me.
    13:08:02  DeeDee  Senna can work very well, but like other herbs, it can lose its effectiveness if used regularly and then you need to take a break from it.
    13:08:38  DeeDee  I am glad we got those oils in the blend!
    13:09:33  Larry  The suppository trick with coconut oil is GREAT. So easy to use and seems to be working very well. Thanks!
    13:09:43  Dave  I only expect to use it monthly or a week or so less.
    13:09:50  DeeDee  Some other herbs that can be beneficial to get the colon working well and you can use them ongoing are chamomile and meadowsweat, fenugreek.
    13:10:18  Dave  Just as a restarter for me.
    13:10:19  DeeDee  That is great that the senna works to get you on track and that you do not need to use it regularly.
    13:10:48  DeeDee  I am loving those suppositories also! I am starting to use them more here with people too after their sessions.
    13:11:38  DeeDee  They stay in well, are comfortable, and absorb into the system quickly.
    13:11:43  DeeDee  Welcome Joseph.
    13:12:13  Dave  I do use other herbs as needed because I'm on dehydrating meds.
    13:12:16  Larry  Those Walmart tube trays are working nicely.
    13:12:40  Joseph  Hello DeeDee, all.
    13:13:26  DeeDee  That is great, Larry. I bought some more of the kind of trays I found also because people are asking for them.
    13:14:25  DeeDee  Joseph, any topics to discuss?
    13:15:30  Larry  DeeDee... I want to thank you again for making my session so relaxing and making me feel comfortable. I learned a ton from you.
    13:16:04  DeeDee  I have more and more people trying enemas than before. Usually, the majority has been colonics, but lately, a lot of enemas.
    13:16:15  DeeDee  You are so welcome Larry!
    13:16:39  DeeDee  Larry, how have you been doing at home with your sessions?
    13:17:00  Dave  Ditto for that, Larry.
    13:17:07  DeeDee  Thank you Dave!
    13:17:28  Joseph  Well DeeDee, I know I brought this up last session, but I tried a nice series with the silicone colon tube and could not get that darn tube in very far yesterday. I started a flow to try and make it easier, to no avail.
    13:18:42  Larry  Very good... My time frame for a 3-enema series runs about 90 minutes or a bit more and uses all 4 quarts if I keep it slow. I'm really anxious to see my report so I can fine-tune the solutions and implants.
    13:18:47  DeeDee  Joseph, are you close enough to come in? or have you viewed our DVD on colon tubes?
    13:19:21  Dave  Maybe we are coming full circle with enema use... Very popular home remedy in some of our childhoods, and economical too.
    13:19:55  Joseph  I am in Chicago, pretty close for a weekend trip, and I haven't been able to see the colon tube DVD.
    13:20:04  Larry  I highly recommend a session w/ DeeDee for pure learning and help.
    13:20:57  Larry  BTW... come a bit early and try out the massage chair!
    13:21:53  DeeDee  I have a client who has brought in a hand mirror and he holds it so he can watch me insert the colon tube and get an idea of how I do it.
    13:21:53  Joseph  I visited once before. Had the luxury to use the infrared sauna before therapy.
    13:22:48  Joseph  Since it is silicone, what type of lubrication should I use? I hear KY is no good for silicone.
    13:22:57  DeeDee  I have had an occasional problem with some people where the colon tube just won't go in because they have a twist or pronounced curve; it would just be unsafe to try and get through.
    13:23:11  DeeDee  The sauna is awesome, isn't it?
    13:23:18  Joseph  Yes it was!
    13:23:33  Joseph  ...so I've been using the coconut oil.
    13:24:05  DeeDee  I use our Surgilube which is similar to KY, without the chemical additives, but you could use coconut oil or olive oil also.
    13:24:35  Joseph  Okay, thank you, DeeDee.
    13:26:06  Dave  I had a now-retired therapist who did a first-time check of the rectum because she said curvature differed among people and she wanted correct insertion of the speculum.
    13:26:40  Larry  I've found a local source for massage of the lymph nodes. Should I do a cleansing series before or after the massage?
    13:28:30  DeeDee  I was taught in colon therapy school in Chicago to check the rectum also for angle, etc., but I-ACT frowns upon that. We are not supposed to stick our finger into any orifice unless we are MDs. Most of the problems with the colon tubes occur further up.
    13:29:16  DeeDee  You could do a cleanse after your massage to help the body flush out what the massage therapist does. Drink plenty of water also.
    13:30:32  Dave  The therapist was an old-timer (80 plus), so she followed her own rules, lol.
    13:31:15  DeeDee  Yes, older therapists did do their own thing - better off I am sure!
    13:32:44  DeeDee  In our newsletter coming up in a few days, Kristina talks about Madison being one of the most polluted cities, so cleansing is so important!
    13:32:54  Larry  One of my major issues is cramping after heavy workouts or long cycling trips. My endocronologist has me a heavy doses of magnesium which I want to stop. Since this is likely a thyroid issue, is there a specific essential oil I can try?
    13:33:01  Dave  She was careful. Offered sterilized metal speculum, but mostly did disposables as requested.
    13:33:42  DeeDee  Larry, where are you getting the cramps?
    13:34:20  Larry  Hamstrings, neck, calves, glutes, hands.
    13:35:52  DeeDee  Panaway can be used topically internally (suppository). You could use wintergreen, rosemary, fennel, marjoram, basil, nutmeg - a good blend of these.
    13:36:27  DeeDee  Larry, it will be interesting to see your magnesium levels on your hair analysis also.
    13:36:59  Larry  Yup, that and the lead level.
    13:37:09  Dave  Would have thought that with capital and university and enviro activists, city would be purer.
    13:37:50  Larry  It's from all of the oil those cyclists are using on their chains!! lol
    13:37:51  DeeDee  Calcium/potassium ratios have to do with the thyroid on the test.
    13:38:15  DeeDee  Welcome, Ruri.
    13:38:47  Ruri P  Thank you, good to be here - sorry to be late though.
    13:38:48  DeeDee  I guess there are a few factories, etc., around here generating stuff.
    13:39:30  DeeDee  Ruri, any questions, comments, subjects?
    13:39:38  Dave  Meat and cheese, I suspect!
    13:39:55  DeeDee  That could be!
    13:40:03  Joseph  yep, sausage and cheese!
    13:40:24  Dave  Good or bad, DeeDee?
    13:41:11  Ruri P  Actually, I was wondering if there is a safe way to use enemas to contribute to weight loss; also, I'm concerned about heavy metal poisoning (my mom has a severe case) and was wondering how to use enemas to help with that as well.
    13:42:49  DeeDee  Ruri, enemas can definitely be used for weight loss and heavy metal detox. To get a more specific plan, we should talk, and for the heavy metals, we should do a hair tissue mineral analysis so we know what we are looking at.
    13:43:42  DeeDee  There are essential oils for the enema, and supplements that you could take along with a cleansing program to deal with both of those issues. I would want to get a health history so I could recommend accurately.
    13:44:24  Ruri P  Well, my mom has taken a heavy metals hair test.
    13:44:46  Ruri P  That is why I asked, but it would be nice to get your thoughts.
    13:44:47  DeeDee  A good oral and colon cleanse that supports the liver and colon and works on diet would probably be a good combination.
    13:44:58  DeeDee  Welcome, Mike.
    13:45:39  DeeDee  I would definitely want to take a look at the test and get a health history, but enemas can be a very good tool in dealing with this.
    13:46:15  Ruri P  How do I contact you?
    13:46:43  DeeDee  You can call the office 608-242-0200 or e-mail me at deedee@[ourdomain].com.
    13:47:01  Ruri P  Thanks so much and I have one more question.
    13:47:06  DeeDee  We could then set up a good protocol for both of you.
    13:47:27  DeeDee  Sure, go ahead and ask anything.
    13:47:56  DeeDee  Mike, any questions or issues?
    13:48:35  Dave  Any reason given by clients for new enema interest?
    13:48:58  DeeDee  Ruri, coffee enemas would probably be a good thing for both of you also.
    13:49:25  Ruri P  I was studying Chinese medicine for a while and I learned that the matter is looked over after bowel movements.
    13:49:37  mike s  I'm a bit new to this but what should I avoid eating before an enema and what time frame?
    13:49:51  DeeDee  Dave, no reason given, but several people expressed learning for home usage also.
    13:50:19  Ruri P  Would you say that one should study what has happened after your enema? Like what comes out of the body?
    13:51:16  Larry  Dave... for me it was the high cost of colonics vs. home enema series. I wanted to learn the proper way to do everything and what equipment to use. Sooo much better than just watching a video!
    13:51:23  DeeDee  Mike, I always advise to try to stay away from foods that may cause you gas the day before and the day of.
    13:51:25  Dave  Thanks. Guess it's a new thing for much/most of the population.
    13:51:30  DeeDee  Some people do fast the day of their cleanse, but others do not feel well when they do this, so you can eat a light meal a couple hours before the cleanse.
    13:52:14  DeeDee  That is what many are doing too, Larry. It makes sense especially for those who cannot find a good therapist in their area also.
    13:52:46  Ruri P  Both of us do coffee enemas but Ii was thinking of doing the soap. I did vinegar with mixed results.
    13:53:29  Ruri P  I'm afraid of doing the soap because two times I took in the enemas and and all the liquid never came out.
    13:53:41  DeeDee  Ruri, definitely look at what comes out, yes. That is one of the good things about colonics. I can see what comes out through the tube which is much easier than trying to see it in the toilet. Many times all you see is brown liquid.
    13:54:24  DeeDee  What type of soap and how much? Did you follow with a plain water or salt water enema?
    13:54:50  Ruri P  I suppose you are talking about a 3-part enema?
    13:55:02  Larry  That little lever on the tank is just like a "refresh" button on your computer! ;)
    13:55:07  Dave  Was similar in old days when a doctor was not in easy reach and home care included enemas as needed. Had MD's seal of approval.
    13:55:19  DeeDee  Yes, the 3 series is very helpful to get further up and get a more thorough cleanse.
    13:55:51  Ruri P  Like you do coffee, you purge and then salt and purge that and then something else? And back to back, right?
    13:57:17  Ruri P  The soap bar is one that is especially for colonic cleansing. I believe I also have the instructions but I'm sort of worried that my body will just absorb it like it did the vinegar.
    13:57:18  DeeDee  Yes, our protocol is to do the soap enema first, then a sea salt and peppermint, and you want to do the coffee last (in a clean colon).
    13:57:48  Ruri P  Oh, I see that makes more sense then what I was doing!
    13:57:59  DeeDee  Ruri, how much water are you using in an enema that you say it is absorbed?
    13:58:00  Joseph  That's what I did yesterday, but with Folger's coffee.
    13:58:33  DeeDee  Joseph, when will you try our specially made-for-enemas coffee (much better for you)?
    13:59:06  DeeDee  Folger's is not organic and not low in acidity, so I would try enema coffee if you can.
    13:59:27  Joseph  Okay, I will use your coffee next, DeeDee.
    13:59:31  DeeDee  Folger's sure does smell good, though, doesn't it?
    13:59:41  Joseph  and tastes good :)
    13:59:47  DeeDee  Great, Joseph!
    14:00:07  Ruri P  hahah! :p
    14:00:13  Larry  Rub it in... when I'm trying to lay off the coffee... grrrr!
    14:00:41  Joseph  Sorry, Larry!
    14:00:42  DeeDee  I have to have my cup in the morning also, but I drink the enema stuff.
    14:00:57  Joseph  Oh, didn't know that was for drinking as well, DeeDee.
    14:01:13  DeeDee  Does anyone have anything else quick before we have to go?
    14:01:32  Ruri P  Trust me, once you do a coffee enema, you'll never look at coffee the same way again and the smell will make you think of enemas... I drank coffee for the first time yesterday.... in 3 years!
    14:01:40  Dave  It's tasty in another way. Believe me, LOL.
    14:01:43  DeeDee  Yes, you can definitely drink it with much less guilt.
    14:01:45  Larry  No... Thanks for hosting. I've now learned your coffee works on both ends of the body.
    14:02:10  Joseph  Not I, thank you very much DeeDee, and take care all.
    14:02:16  Dave  Next chat?
    14:02:27  DeeDee  That was great! A pleasure to talk with you gentlemen today.
    14:02:44  DeeDee  Thank you all!
    14:02:49  DeeDee  Good bye for now
    14:03:05  Ruri P  Would you recommend a particular incense to allow sleep?
    14:03:14  Ruri P  Is it OK to sleep at the same time?
    14:03:14  Dave  Bye all.
