What is Colon Hydrotherapy? Colon Hydrotherapy is also known as Colonic, Colon Irrigation, Colon Therapy, High Enema and Colon Cleansing. The most common form of Colon Hydrotherapy is the enema. A colonic is an extended form of enema. Enema use dated back to ancient Egypt where water was infused into the rectum by using reeds from the Nile. Enema is mentioned in many ancient cultures including the Sumerians, Chinese, Hindus, Greeks and Romans. Colon Therapy is a safe, effective method of removing waste from the large intestine, without the use of drugs. By introducing filtered and temperature-regulated water into the colon, the waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through natural peristalsis. Peristalsis is waves of movement sweeping waste through and out of the colon. The colon is filled, and then emptied through natural peristalsis several times throughout the session. Sessions last approximately 45 minutes. The gentle passage of water is controlled by the therapist operating the instrument. A speculum is inserted into the rectum.The speculum has two hoses attached to it outside of the body. The smaller hose is for the inflow of water into the colon and the larger hose is for waste and water outflow from the colon. This is called a closed system. All waste is contained entirely within the system so there is no mess or unpleasant odors or exposed bacterial waste. The water is filtered through two separate water filters to sterilize and purify the water. The speculum and hoses are disposable and for one time use only. All work is done face up and the client is covered at all times to ensure modesty while the therapist is massaging the abdomen to loosen and assist the direction of waste movement. |

How can I benefit from Colon Hydrotherapy? Everyone can benefit from internal cleansing. Everyday our bodies are exposed to toxins and pollutants in the air we breathe, products we put on our skin, the water we drink, and the food we eat. There are over 70,000 chemicals in use today that we are all exposed to that were not in use just 100 years ago. When waste and toxins can be eliminated from the body, there is no problem. But when toxins build up faster than they can be eliminated or when the elimination systems are not performing well, these toxins accumulate and can create disease all over the body. Most people have seven to ten pounds of old fecal matter in their colons, even if they have a bowel movement every day. When this accumulation is removed by various colon cleansing procedures, the body is free to absorb essential vitamins and minerals and healing begins. Disease originates in the colon. When waste cannot be properly eliminated, it accumulates in the colon and then backs up into the rest of the digestive tract, then the liver and kidneys. This causes unpleasant symptoms elsewhere in the body. This can mean constipation, fatigue, headaches, weight gain, bloating, skin problems, muscle and joint pain, and other more serious illness. Even chronic diarrhea is a symptom of improper waste elimination. The accumulation of waste on the walls of the colon provides the perfect breeding ground for parasites, yeast, and viruses. Many of us harbor viruses that only emerge when our immunity is low, and then we get cold or flu symptoms. The accumulation of toxins physically impairs elimination of feces and also can prevent friendly bacteria from colonizing and doing their work. When your colon is clean, you will have much greater energy and vigor and, at the same time, an inner calm and improved mental clarity. |
