At long last, I'm delighted to present the Colon Therapy Directory. It is a work in progress and there will hopefully be many new additions as highly trained gravity method colon therapists contact me with the details of their practice and approach. If you are a colon therapist who would like to be considered for the directory or a reader who would like to recommend someone, please send an email with all the details of the practice to Natalia@therawfooddetoxdiet.com.
I would like to give a hearty thanks to my lovely, dedicated intern, Samah Fares for the many hours of research that went into putting this list together. Please note that research into these therapists have been made via phone conversations with the therapists. With the exception of the bolded listings below, I have not personally been treated by these therapists. We understand that all the therapists listed below offer the gravity method and remain in the room with you throughout the treatment. Anything else is not advisable. Please also note that while the LIBBE method is not my method of choice, I've included listings for therapists who offer the LIBBE units because they are widely available, can work well on many people and they are gravity-centered and safe. I have deliberately not included pressurized methods and all "open" system colonic systems.
Happy eliminating!
