3. Cleansing can be done on specific organs such as the kidneys, bowels, liver, lymph nodes, and the arterial network. You may also cleanse certain toxins or waste out of the body such as mucus and heavy metals.

4. First and foremost one should start with the bowels. Since the bowels are essentially your body's sewer system, it is important to keep them moving and clean. Your bowels should move 3-5 times daily! This may sound drastic but citizens of third world countries have 3-5 movements daily. This is due of course to eating more whole and fresh foods. We Americans have developed very poor eating habits, especially since the advent of the stand-alone refrigerator. With most bowel cleansing one can expect to move and dislodge old incrusted fecal matter from the bowels. This may take up to a year to complete.
   
   Secondly a parasite and pathogen cleansing should take place. These kinds of cleansings are designed to help rid the body of unwanted parasites, bacteria, molds, fungus's, virus's and viroids. This cleansing can take up to three months to finish depending on ones cleansing needs.
   
   Third on the list would be to cleanse the kidneys. This is done with herbal combinations designed to help flush and rid the kidneys of pathogens, toxins, and unwanted heavy metals such as mercury. This cleanse can also help dissolve kidney stones.
   
   Forth action should be liver flush. This flushing works to help push out unwanted non-crystallized and crystallized gallstones from the binary canals of the liver. This cleanse can only be done after a pathogen or parasite cleansing has taken place for more than one month and weekly parasite maintenance has been followed. Doing a parasite or pathogen cleansing first provides safety when doing this cleanse.
   
   Fifth is open to a verity of cleansings. Some of these are Oral Chelation (for the arterial network), Lymphatic cleansing (for lymph nodes and lymph glands), Mercury removal, and candida cleansing if needed.

5. When cleansing starts each person will experience their own detoxification effects. Since every bodies chemistry and make-up are different then so will be the effects of the cleanse. This detoxification effect is sometimes called a "Healing Crisis". Imagine that your body is a still water puddle a day after a good rain. The water looks nice and clean until you stir it up with a stick. The water becomes cloudy and filled with dirt. This is essentially what is happening in your body when you start to cleanse. You are bringing out the unwanted substances for removal.
   
   At this point is essential that your Bowels are moving 3-5 times daily to remove this waste in a timely manner. If the Bowels are moving 3-5 times daily then the effects of the detoxification will be reduced. Please be aware that if you are extremely toxic then you may still experience an unpleasant detox effect. Drinking 4oz. of water every 30 minutes is also important for helping the kidneys flush out toxins
   
   Listed below are some common detoxification or healing crisis symptoms
   
   • Headache
   • Diarrhea (not more than two days at a time)
   • Itching (on a specific place or all over the body)
   • Nausea
   • Vomiting
   • Fatigue
   • Cloudy and unclear thoughts
   • Acne breakouts
   • Hives
   • Low grade fever
   • Aching in the joints
   • Lower back pain
   • Emotional release (anger, sadness, etc..)
   
   These are just a few of the detox effects you may experience when cleansing. Again keeping the bowels moving and drinking plenty of water can dramatically reduce the unpleasant effects of detoxification.

6. Depending on the type of cleansing you are undergoing it could take a few weeks to a whole year. Below are some guidelines for particular cleanses. Remember it has taken most of us years to develop toxic bodies. With cleansing miracles are not achieved overnight.
   
   • Parasite-1-3 months. Once a week maintenance after the full cleanse is complete to keep colonies in check.
   • Kidney-3-15 weeks depending on condition of the kidneys. Repeat once or twice a year.
   • Arterial-A minimum of 6 months up to 1-½ years by oral means.
   • Colon-A minimum of a year to reestablish the proper flora and cleanse them thoroughly
   • Liver-Until you no longer have stones coming out. This may take several liver cleanses. Repeat once or twice a year thereafter
   • Lymphatic-7-40 days on the Master Cleanser. Repeat if need be several times a year.

7. Many clients have asked us what other therapies would help out while cleansing is taking place. Having deep tissue, massage, or any other type of bodywork can be very beneficial for those participating in a cleansing program. This will allow for better blood flow and removal of waste from the body. This therapy can also be very relaxing and is sometimes used to reduce the effects of the detoxification.
   
   Stretching or other physical activity can also help the body during times of cleansing by again increasing blood flow and providing more oxygen to the body. Cardiovascular exercise can help the body detoxify through sweating. Taking a Detox Bath can help to pull toxins out through the skin. Sweating is a great way to detoxify the body. Visiting a dry sauna once a week is a good idea.
