Here is another glance at what was terms QUACK-MEDICINE back
in the early 1900's. The control is easier to see.

Okay my verdict is in. Yesterday I went all out on heat therapy.
I turned up the tub heat and stayed for 30 minutes or so in extra hot
water. Next decided to take Sunday off. Then I laid around watching
movies off my dvd player on my computer that a TV out card sends
to my set. I have been doing that for 20 years.
I also used my heater in bed that can also vibrate. It can get too hot so
I put a sock over it. You see two days before I did not have a bowel
movement properly for me because I have one twice a day working
and this is normal for me.
Eating the salt free pumpkin seeds have messed me up. They plug you
up if you get to many but I did not do that, all I eat is about 20 seeds
per day and this is the minimum natural zinc I need.
Still those little seeds mess with the tightness on your stool so after 2 days
of not going I knew I was in for an azz whipping. Sure enough with all of the
stress and eating lots of bananas it hurt to go. Not as bad as sometimes
when this first happened so I am getting better.
Thanks to everyone I talked to my state of recovery is excellent.
The green tea works great but it has caffeine that regulates the hormones
but also adds to trouble going number 2. But it helps number 1 super.
So I went half the day hangin out watching the tube sitting on the heat
you know where. After enough hours of that I sat up in my office chair
that I placed a small sofa pillow on to easy my condition.
First one side then the other I had to keep moving all over to get
comfortable but no where could I move. I leaned forward that help if
off to one side so I stayed there for a few minutes. For 30-40 minutes
I had to keep moving because it hurt to sit. So I got up and went out
to the shop for awhile.
All day I had to just hope for an easing.
It seems I heated the area so much that my prostate swelled up to the
point that unlike any other time I could feel it. Sitting was out so i went
on working for a while and then laid down when I wanted to rest.
So the heat therapy can be work. I think what it does is to force the
issue by expanding the tissue and making the circulation flow normal.
It is the next day and the pain is all gone. I do not feel like I am sitting
on a golf ball either, completely normal. Big shock, normal.
So if you do heat therapy expect to suffer up front but the end results
are great.

BTW you guys I just took my iodide and am looking for units now.
Also Saw palmetto, maca root, goldenseal....................
Here is an example of how long this stuff has been around and how
the medical branch stonewalls any tech that works. Plugged right into
the wall and had a rheostat. Archaic .......Yikes!!!

Japanese health statistics linked to high seaweed intake
The Japanese are considered one of the world's longest living people, with an extraordinarily low rate of certain types of cancer. A major dietary difference that sets Japan apart from other countries is high iodine intake, with seaweeds the most common source. Here are some astonishing Japanese health statistics, which are possibly related to their high seaweed consumption and iodine intake:
-Japanese average life expectancy (83 years) is five years longer than US average life expectancy (78 years) [41].
-In 1999 the age-adjusted breast cancer mortality rate was three times higher in the US than in Japan [42].
-Ten years after arriving in the US (in 1991), the breast cancer incidence rate of immigrants from Japan increased from 20 per 100,000 to 30 per 100,000 [43].
-In 2002 the age-adjusted rate of prostate cancer in Japan was 12.6 per 100,000, while the US rate was almost ten times as high
Conclusions
Japanese iodine intake from seaweed is linked to health benefits not seen in cultures with dissimilar diets. Knowing how much iodine the Japanese consume daily is beneficial for people who wish to consume equivalent amounts of iodine or seaweed supplements while avoiding excessive amounts that may adversely affect health.

Protective effect
Researchers think that the activity has a protective effect because the prostate secretes the bulk of the fluid in semen, and sexual activity may flush out cancer-causing chemicals.
Another theory is that it reduces the development of calcifications in the gland that has been linked with cancer.

Aaron I have not ordered yet, waiting til after the banks open.
I can't see the link on ADJUSTABLE THERM O-THERAPTHY.
Last night the heat worked miracles just as prescribed. I felt the heat
begin to releave the pain as circulation increased. I became so relaxed
each 10 minute interval that I needed to get up and go.
I slept 2-3hours at a shot instead of 1.5hours before rising in my
pattern of broken rest. It is making a huge difference. Ouch! This
thing hurts like someone kicked me right in the you know what.
I used the heater anywhere I wanted worked great. I could put that heater
on any part of my lower body down there and felt the pain go bye bye.
I read where people just use a heating pad.
Still the adjustable unit would be nice. Probes often have built in
thermo-safety sensors that are the upper limit while the control box
would give a digital readout complete with adjustable power supply.
It is a good tool to have around just like a heating pad.
If you can find an adjustable one let me know.
Maybe throw a resistor switch to lower the current?

Nadine R. – Dallas, TX
“Since I finally bought this device from your web site, after a week of twice daily treatments I find that I no longer have to ‘stuff myself back in’ after bowel movements. Thanks Home Medic, my hemorrhoids have now shrank like never before!”
Eddie M. – West Hills, CA
I use an anal heater in my medical office for the treatment of hemorrhoids. The hemorrhoids almost routinely shrink and stop bleeding. Frequently all symptoms disappear after only two applications with the anal probe.
MK Medical Doctor, Lawrence, Long Island, NY
My doctor enrolled me in the first study evaluating the anal heater for hemorrhoids in 1981. The first night I used the probe my hemorrhoids felt better. The surprise was what happened to my prostate symptoms. I had been getting up to urinate about six times a night. That night I slept through for the first time in years. After a week the study nurse came to take my heater away but I had 2,000 acres of wheat to cut. When they refused my generous offer to buy the device I told her I would shoot anyone who tried to take "my" heater away.
TC Farmer, Ritzville, WA
I prescribed the anal heater in my medical practice for eight years before I retired. Its effect on all forms of hemorrhoids was dramatic, but what happened with prostate symptoms was outstanding. After sending a man with prostate symptoms home with the device I learned to expect a phone call the next morning telling me how he slept through the night and what a wonderful little machine this was. This seemed to be the pattern about 80% of the time.
CM Medical Doctor, Coeur d'Alene, ID
I avoided hemorrhoid surgery in 1995 by using the anal heater. I began to use it once a week hoping to prevent prostate problems. I can't tell if it is helping my prostate or not but I have noticed I don't seem to get many colds or the flu any more so I think it must be helping my immune system.
ED Big Valley, AB, Canada
A patient of mine suffered symptoms of chronic prostatitis for many years living with pelvic pain and getting up about eight times at night to urinate. He was so sleep deprived he almost lost his job. I gave him a 30 minute treatment with the anal heater and he went to the bathroom only twice that night. With continued use he improved even more. Four months after the first treatment all symptoms were gone. He bought his own unit for home use and now, eight years later, continues to do well. This is highly unusual because antibiotics usually fail to help men with chronic prostatitis because antibiotics have a hard time getting into the prostate.

heat as prostate treatment
Al,
An interesting fact that most people are unaware of is that every woman has a prostate too - it's called the Skene's Gland and produces the same prostate fluid. It can get inflamed and is called Skenitis and the same therapy can help shrink it and even kill off infection if it is infected.
------------------
I found a unit that is adjustable - still don't know if that small one is or not.
Adjustable Prostate Heater
The Chinese seem to be obsessed with the prostate "massage" because they don't know the true effective nature of simple heat. Prostate massages seem to be a thing of the past but were a regular part of a man's health regimen to keep it supple.
All these probes are way larger than need be - they only have to be about 2 1/4" long and maybe 3/8"-1/4" diameter with a small bulb at the top to help it stay in. That heat warms the entire area and shrinks the prostate just fine without coming in contact with it.
The Swiss unit had the prostate and hemorrhoid probe but the larger prostate probe was never necessary. That Swiss unit even had a V probe for women but over the years that Roger's unit was manufactured, the small hemorrhoid probe was all that women used and it worked perfect.
Here is a unit you can sit on for those who might be squeamish about the probe:
Heated Seat for Prostate
If Roger only knew what he started!
Here are a couple short articles by Dr. McGee who I worked with:
Hot Cure for Prostate Problems
Integrated Healthcare
Written by Charles T. McGee, MD
TAC, Volume 27, Issue 1
Published: 12/30/2004
Heat As A Cure
Heat has been known for its healing properties throughout history. Heat increases circulation of the blood, white cell counts, oxygen availability and the immune response. The body, itself, uses an elevation of temperature to fight infections.
The Elliot Treatment
In 1930, Dr. Charles Robert Elliot developed the “Elliot Treatment Regulator” as a novel way to treat pelvic infections (before antibiotics). A rubber bag was inserted into the vagina through which warm water was pumped filling the bag to the size of a baby’s head. A series of one-hour daily treatments were given in which the water was heated to 130° F. This level of heat was tolerated without mucosal injury. Insulated tubes prevented injury to the skin.
Several studies using the device were published in major medical journals in the 1930’s. The most dramatic responses were in women with severe pelvic infections who had abscesses that filled the pelvis and lower abdomen. In almost all cases, the abscesses shrank and surgery was avoided. Pain generally was relieved as soon as warm water began to flow through the device.
In 1936, the Journal of Urology published a study using the device to treat prostatitis. Eighty percent of cases of chronic prostatitis were improved using the Elliot device rectally, a far better success rate than with today’s antibiotics. Regardless of these successes, the device fell into disuse in the mid 1940’s, when antibiotics appeared on the scene.
------------------------------------------
Pelvic Heat Treatment Rediscovered
In 1977, an inventor named Rodger Estes had a bad case of hemorrhoids and backed into a hot radiator. Being tipsy, he stayed on the radiator long enough to experience relief. This led to the development of a heated anal probe device for hemorrhoids that gained FDA approval. In clinical trials, symptoms of hemorrhoids improved in 98% of users, an unusually high success rate.
However, during the clinicals and afterward, improvements in several other conditions were reported, some far removed from the anus. For example, symptoms of BPH (benign prostatic hypertrophy) and prostatitis improved in about 80% of cases. Then, the Chinese reported the device significantly helped two people with rectal cancer.
Suspecting an immune stimulation mechanism, Estes tried the device in anything warm blooded that would hold still long enough. Users reported relief of head colds (if used in the anus very early in the cold), relieving post herpetic pain, and reducing blood loss during surgery (when used a few hours before an operation). Three horses with chronic giant hives were treated just one time and hives disappeared permanently in all three. Estes’ 18-year-old dog went into a coma with terminal kidney failure (BUN 304), but came back to normal function following one anal heater treatment. The dog was alert and active the next day with an improving BUN.
Mechanism of Action
How anal/rectal heat can produce distant effects in the body is not clear. Estes showed the device to several energy healers from China (qigong masters) and asked what they thought it might be good for. Each qigong master, independently, produced the complete list of conditions it took 17 years to build through observation. They were using theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine stating that the treatment stimulates nearby Conception Vessel and Governing Vessel meridians, and all the tissues through which they run. This appears to be the best theory to date. Along the same line, I showed the device to a “Medicine Man” from Ghana, who predicted the device would have great potential for healing, because we are “sticking a hot poker into Chakra number one.”
The currently available Swiss-made device comes with 2-1/4 inch, 3-1/4 inch and 5-1/2 inch probes for the anus and prostate respectively. The device is powered by a rechargeable battery that generally provides three to four 20-minute treatments. Users can adjust probe temperature from 98º to a safe maximum of 113º F.
The application of anal heat may sound comical, at first; but people who have been helped by the device hold it in high regard.Last edited by Aaron; 05-25-2017, 05:08 AM.

THE ANSWERS WITHIN THE GLAND
Look at what the functions of the prostate gland tell us. The prostate provides about 20% of the volume of seminal fluid, that fluid which is ejaculated by the male at sexual climax. The function of the prostate is to secrete fluid into the semen - in fact, prostatic fluid forms about 20% of the ejaculate. Since it wraps itself around the urethra, it is ideally suited to help regulate the flow of urine, by contracting its muscle fibers. This is probably why the α2 blockers (saw palmetto, Hytrin, etc) are effective in reducing symptoms of enlargement of the prostate (BPH, or benign prostatic hypertrophy).
The prostate also contains large numbers of receptors for thyroid hormone. We know that a woman's breasts also contain large numbers of these same thyroid hormone receptors. The woman's breasts and the man's prostate are the two largest accessory sexual organs of their bodies. It is not unreasonable to suspect that thyroid hormone plays some role in their function.
We know that iodine deficiency is linked with fibrocystic breast disease and breast cancer. When a woman with fibrocystic breasts is treated with iodine, the fibrocystic breasts soften and turn into normal breasts. It would not be unreasonable to conclude that the same thing could happen when men with enlarged prostates are treated with iodine. Nature tends to be fairly conservative, and does not invent new processes when the old ones are perfectly adequate to the task. Iodine deficiency is associated with increased risk of three different cancers, including breast, thyroid and stomach, all of which have thyroid hormone receptors.2
The prostate also contains thyroid hormone receptors.3 Thyroid hormone requires iodine for its synthesis. Therefore the prostate must also require iodine, since it has the receptors for thyroid hormone, and nature really does not create useless redundancies. This could explain why therapy with iodine or iodide could help to shrink the size of the prostate. It is known that iodine deficiency in adolescents results in enlargement of the testes, just as it results in enlargement of the thyroid gland without concomitant production of androgenic hormones and virilization.

My pleasure thank you.
hey I was convinced by your chat and got in a burning hot tub
what a relief I never got so far. I am in heaven plus I found this
old heater of mine.
113F to 117f is the thermal target. let her rip.
With all this cold clammy weather I am ready for the heat.

Thermotherapy
WOW! I never saw that one before.
48C is a bit hot - I wonder if it is adjustable up to that max temp.
45C max would be exactly what the tested max should be but obviously it will work.
The high temp is a bit uncomfortable for some people.
Roger's unit came with little latex sleeves that went over them - that did cut the temp but he didn't like them much because of that. But if they do get too hot, I guess finger cots could reduce the temp some.
I wonder if there is an app or something to regulate the voltage to the unit to control temp. That's really a great idea and inexpensive too!
The normal units were a few hundred dollars each so this could be a game changer.
Thanks for sharing that - I know a lot of people that have been wanting one.
I'm sure Roger would be thrilled to see this low cost solution if he was still around.
