Specialised Colonic Programmes for Specific Areas
In this section we outline some speciality treatments for
specfic areas in the human body. Please click the links below
for details of each speciality treatment.
- The Seven Day Tissue Cleanse
- Castor Oil Packs
- Gall Bladder Flush
The Seven Day Tissue Cleanse
This is a very deep cleansing programme designed by Bernard
Jensen, which targets the muccoidal plaque along the digestive
tract.
The day before the 7 day programme
1) Have a colonic
2) Have a skin brush before the bath
3) Prepare the four sets of supplements for the next day
4) Prepare the linseed for the next morning
5) Take the Co-Tron (Roger Groos) in the evening
6) Take 1 tablespoon of cod liver oil or linseed oil before
bed.
During the Cleanse
EAT NOTHING for the full seven days other
than that specified during the programme. If you experience
feeling of extreme hunger, you may drink more herbal teas,
vegetable broth or organic vegetable/fruit juices.
Plenty of liquid is essential to the success of
the cleansing programme. You should drink 1fl oz
(30ml) of juice for every pound of your body weight every
day, (3.5l-4.5l=1 gallon). If this is impossible, then dilute
the juice in proportions of half-and-half with mineral or
filtered water. The vegetable broth can also be diluted with
water if you wish but never with fresh juices. The more liquid
you take in, the quicker you flush out all the accumulated
toxins and the less possibility there is of retaining water
because mineral water and juices act as natural diuretics.
The vegetable juices most frequently used are cabbage, carrots,
celery, beetroot, cucumber and courgettes.
The fruit juices most frequently used are apples, oranges,
grapefruits, lemons, grapes, pineapples and pears.
You can buy mixed organic vegetable juices such as EDEN
or BIOTTA, both available from health food shops. Freshly
pressed juices made from organic fruit and vegetables are
always preferable.
NEVER MIX FRUIT AND VEGETABLE JUICES ON THE SAME
DAY.
CASTOR OIL PACKS
Castor oil packs assist enemas, because the absorption of
the castor oil through the skin into the lymph system, via
the lacteals in the small intestine, softens, relaxes, nourishes
and balances the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
It also disperses congestion and tension, and slowly helps
to release blockages in the bowel pockets.
Dr Christopher (a world renowned naturopathic doctor) also
comments, “castor oil helps to get rid of hardened mucus
in the body, which may appear as cysts, tumours or polyps”
castor oil packs can be used anywhere on the body where there
is inflammation, congestion or cyst. It is very useful in
the treatment of sprain or injuries.
With careful planning castor oil packs are an enjoyable
experience which is easy to do.
You will need:
- 250ml of castor oil (from the chemist)
- An electric heated pad or a hot water bottle
- 2 clean cotton tea towels (40cm x 25cm)
- A couple of large plastic bin liners
- A large thick towel which will wrap around the body.
Directions:
- Spread the large towel on the floor
- Place a moist cotton tea towel over the plastic bin bag
- Oak the cotton tea towel in castor oil
- Place it on top of the moist cotton tea towel
- Lift the plastic bag and place over the abdomen with
the cotton soaked in oil next to the skin
- Place the heated pad over the plastic bag or use a hot
water bottle (not as easy to manage)
- Lie on the spread towel and wrap it around the body to
hold everything in place. Secure with ties or safety pins
- Enjoy this soothing and relaxing pack for one and a half-hours.
When you have finished remove the pack and place the two
layers of cotton between two plastic bags, roll them up
and put them away in a cool place. Repeat this procedure
for three days in a row.
- The following three days massage the entire area with
olive oil. Rest on the seventh day, and then repeat the
entire procedure again until symptoms improve.
Make sure you have organised yourself well to enjoy your
castor oil pack. You can choose between reading, writing,
resting, meditating, T.V. conversation or sleep. The relaxation
of the solar plexus and abdominal emotional brain is very
soothing and is especially valuable to the kind of constipation
caused by muscular tension. It is an essential aspect of any
body-cleansing programme, whether for preventative or curative
treatment.
Once it is accepted into your life and has a place along
with other beauty and health routines, you will be able to
apply it when needed for beneficial results.
Gall Bladder Flush
To do a gall-bladder flush you will need:
- A small packet of Epsom salts
- 300ml of extra virgin olive oil (200ml if you weigh less
than 50kg)
- 2-3 grapefruits or 8 lemons (preferably organic)
- A large bottle (1l) with a screw on top and a wide opening
- A large jug
- A straw to drink from
Choose a day like Saturday, since you will be able to rest
the next day.
Eat a non-fat dinner the night before, such as brown rice
and steamed or raw vegetables, seasoned with herbs and salt
only. This allows the bile to build up and develop pressure
in the liver. The higher the pressure the better the flushing
action. To the effect that you can also do a juice the day
before. Apple is particularly good. On the day of the cleanse
do not eat any solid food or take any medicines, vitamins
or pills that you can do without; they interfere with the
liver cleansing mechanism. Juices such as carrot, lemon and
apple are recommended until 2.00pm.
- 2.00pm Do not drink after 2.00pm (otherwise
this could make you feel quite ill later)
Get the Epsom salts ready; in the large jug mix 4tbs of
Epsom salts with 600ml of water and
Store in the refrigerator (this is for convenience and taste
only) this makes four servings of
150ml each
- 6.00pm Drink one serving (150ml i.e.
the equivalent of a small tumbler) of the ice cold Epsom
salts (if you do not wish to prepare this ahead of the time
simply mix 1 TBS in 150 ml of water) You may add 1/8 tsp.
of tsp. of vitamin C powder to improve the taste. You may
also drink a few mouthfuls of water afterwards or rinse
your mouth.
- 8.00pm Repeat by drinking another serving
of Epsom salts
- 9.30pm The Epsom salts should be taking
effect and you will have diarrhoea. This is normal!
- 9.45pm Measure and pour 300ml (200ml)
of olive oil into the large jar. Squeeze the grapefruits
(or the
lemons) and add the oil. Together this should make at least
600ml of liquid. Screw the jar tightly with the lid and
shake vigorously until watery. (Only fresh grapefruit juice
does this)
- 10.00pm drink the potion you have mixed.
Drinking through a large plastic straw helps it to go down
more easily. Make sure you finish the whole drink within
15 minutes.
- Lie down immediately: flat on your back
with your head up high on a pillow. The sooner you lie,
the better the results. Think about what is happening in
the liver: all of the bile duct valves have been opened
by the Epsom salts and bile is now rushing through them
in order to handle the oil you have just drunk, in the process
clearing the small stones which normally lie there undisturbed.
Keep still for at least 20 minutes, then roll on your right
side with your knees upto your chest.
- Next morning: Upon awakening but not
before 6.00am take your third serving of Epsom salts. If
you have indigestion or nausea wait until it has gone before
drinking the Epsom salts. You may go back to bed afterwards.
If you had planned a colonic that day do not take any Epsom
salts.
- 2 hours later: Take your fourth (and
last) serving of Epsom salts
- After the enema or once the last Epsom Salts does
take effect you will observe what seems to be green
peas but are in fact small gall-stones, this is a sign that
your flush has been successful. You may eat as soon as you
feel like it. Start with fruit juice, half an hour later
eat fruit. One hour later you may eat regular food but keep
it light. By supper you should feel recovered. The flush
can be repeated every 3 weeks until you no longer observe
the pea like gallstones or feel any nausea.
