Colon cleansing was one the most significant things I did to help me feel better. Mercury will stay in your stomach and colon and leak through from there keeping you ill for sure if you don't approach it directly. It weakens your muscles and makes it difficult to eliminate properly.

Before I went to the colon therapist I used an OTC herbal colon cleanse from the health food store... gave me the runs a bit, helped a bit I think to loosen things up but doesn't compare to one hour at the therapist.

My therapist said the DIY enema cleanse might reach 10-15 inches or a bit more into your colon whereas her method and major equipment definitely gets a few whole feet of it. Maybe more even I think because really I felt the water way up under my rib cage, not just at the bottom of my rib cage but a good couple ribs up.

I wouldn't assume there isn't a therapist near you just because you don't live in a city. Your local health food store is a good place to ask about that. My therapist isn't listed in the yellow pages or anywhere either, I got her number from my doctor.
