Re: I'm back home...my update...
For others following this information exchange, the following link will take you to the posting from Jessina where I first learned about Dr Josephine Gardener ND in St Louis:

From my experience, I have found a void in competent professional colon hydrotherapy providers in the midwest as compared to other regions in the US, as evidenced by the fact that both Jessina and kathryn have had to drive long miles to receive colonics.
It seems that colonics, along with other alternative healthcare modalities, are more available along the US coastlines, from Washington state in the Northwest and then going counterwise down to Oregon, California, and then across Arizona, New Mexico, the Gulf states, and then from Florida all the way up along the Atlantic through New England. States along the Canadian border seem to also have a reasonable of colon hydrotherapists in comparison to the numbers in the interior of the US.
I encourage other CureZone members to post their experiences (good and bad) with other colon hydrotherapy practitioners.
