What is "the healing crisis" and how to deal with it

Dear Alfonso,
1) The treatments are daily sessions, five times per week, each of 30
minutes.
2) The results will be the induction of the healing crisis, including the
red rash. This can be minimized by doing a liver cleanse first.
The enzyme protease helps in the breakdown of released toxins. Taking
charcoal orally helps to absorb toxins in the gut. Drinking lots of ozonated
water will also help the body clear the toxins.
3) A healing crisis, also known as the Herxheimer reaction, is in effect
when the body has begun the normal process of eliminating toxins, all the
body systems working in concert to eliminate waste products and set the
stage for regeneration. Stored toxins are eliminated and old tissue replaced
with new. Reactions may include skin rashes, nausea, headache, sleepiness, fatigue,
diarrhea, a cold, ear infections, boils, all symptoms of the body's healing
efforts. The worst of the crisis usually lasts three or four days, but if
the energy of the patient is low, it may last for a week or more. This is a
time for rest - mental as well as physical.
One crisis is not always enough for a complete cure. The person in a chronic
state, who has gone through many disease processes and ingested many noxious
drugs, must go through these processes again. Listen to your body and go as
slowly as your body needs so that your cleansing is gradual and comfortable.
With a more serious condition there may be many small crises to go through
before the final one is possible. Everything must be considered and given
its proper place in the buildup to a healing crisis. One should expect it
and work towards it. Patience is a necessity - no quick fix can last.

Dear Owen,
The rash is the result of toxins being pushed out rapidly
through the skin. This is the result of the body having been galvanized into healing, and releasing toxins rapidly, more than can be broken down by the available ozone.
Rather than have the released toxins free in the system, the body is forcing them out through the skin.
It is an uncomfortable, but temporary circumstance.
The itching can be relieved by taking large amounts of the enzyme protease, and administering colloidal silver water on the skin.
There are two choices: either continue the treatments, which will result in the rash continuing a while longer (and maybe worsening) before subsiding, or stop and wait for the rash to go away slowly.
Once the body is cleaner, the treatments will not cause the rash.
Doing a liver cleanse will also reduce the level of rash.
Best of Health!
