Pamela Gerry, RN, CCT is a Health Specialist offering fresh wheatgrass, colonic irrigation, therapeutic juicing and fasting supervision.

At the Health Lyceum, we recognize that our bodies are self-cleansing, self-healing, and self- defending. We also understand that “Health Care is Self Care”; that true vitality is developed by living in accordance with our inherent needs, by taking good care of ourselves!

Fresh wheatgrass and sprouts - The Health Lyceum is thrilled to announce that we are now offering fresh wheatgrass grown and juiced on the premises. We also carry a variety of fresh sprouts each week.

Flax seed and chlorophyll tincture - We always have organic, whole flax seed in stock, and regularly offer purse-sized Chlorophyll Tincture.

Free range, non-medicated eggs - Our contented hens are back in full production, and we are well stocked with eggs.

Health Development Consultations - Pamela Gerry is a Health Specialist who will share information with you regarding the Laws of Health, and what you can do to assist your body to heal itself by following these laws. If we are not intentionally building good health, we are unintentionally creating poor health. She will explain the benefits of using therapeutic juicing as a daily tool, and provide documentation supporting the advantages of eating a diet made up of a preponderance of sprouts, raw fruits, veggies, nuts and seeds. She will also offer information that describes non-allopathic responses to addressing health challenges. Fresh organic wheatgrass is grown on-site and Maine's freshest wheatgrass juice is usually available at the Lyceum.

Fasting Support - Pamela can refer you to any of the Fasting Institutes in the US and give you an overview of the practitioners who offer the service of water-only fasting for the reversal of serious, life-threatening conditions. For common maladies, she will guide and support you using short term therapeutic juice fasts.

Colon hydrotherapy - Pamela is certified to operate the Aquanet EC 2000 colonic irrigation machine. She will provide all the equipment necessary for a relaxing experience.

Colonic irrigation is a scary thought for most people. In actuality, it is usually not uncomfortable at all. If your colon has a lot of gas in it, you may experience mild, transient cramping. You can prevent having gas in your colon to a great extent by chewing each mouthful of your food at least 20 times. Also, not drinking with your meals insures that complete digestion will take place and minimizes the likelihood that fermentation and bloating will occur. Generally, in all human activity, we reap what we sow, and this is very true regarding a colon hydrotherapy session.

Your CHT session will take place in a private sanitized room, where you are discreetly draped. You will have on a pair of boxer shorts backwards, plus your own clothes from the waist up. A polar fleece blanket will cover you, and you'll enjoy the warmth of hot rocks wrapped in terry cloth under your feet. You may elect to listen to soothing music provided, or bring your own favorite CD. Some prefer to just chat or enjoy silence. A typical session lasts 45 minutes, but may go for up to an hour, or, be finished in 30 minutes, depending on the condition of the contents of your colon, which is hard to determine before the session begins. Regular clients who come in on a monthly basis, are typically finished within 25-30 minutes. Folks who have been consuming the Standard American Diet for many years, may not have much of a release during their initial treatment, even if it lasts an hour, but may require a series of colonics to accomplish removal of the hardened material that has built up over time. (Study the effects of an acidic physiology.) You are 'in charge' of the session, and should you feel uncomfortable for any reason, you may simply request that it stop.

We use the Aquanet EC 2000 colonic irrigation machine. This device is German engineered, and FDA and UL approved. Not only does it triple filter the irrigating water, it sanitizes itself during and after each use. It's safety features include a water pressure lock that will not allow infusing water to reach above 2 psi. Your treatment will include the use of a disposable rectal speculum with disposable water and waste lines. The Aquanet is a 'closed' colonic system, which means that it is closed to the air, and all evacuating material is contained within patent tubing, so that there is no mess or odor.
