New column in [i]The Guardian[/i]

The Guardian's "Health" page had a new column on Thursday. Nice if it keeps going.
I see Edzard Ernst is in good form as usual.
Why then, does a survey apparently imply high levels of patient satisfaction? Maybe after doing something as ridiculous as voluntarily putting a hose pipe up their arse, people are ashamed to admit it may have been pointless. Or maybe there is something even more sinister at work. "Why are we in Britain obsessed with colonic irrigation?" asks Edzard Ernst, professor of complementary medicine at Exeter University. "It's unpleasant and disgusting." He pauses. "Maybe that's what the British like."
Needed saying, I think. Apparently Princess Di was a fan. Anybody who gets off on that image, can just keep it to themselves.

Rolfe.
