Cleanse: Toxic material is broken down so it can no longer harm your body. Debris built up over a long period is gently removed in the process of a series of treatments. Once impacted material is removed, your colon can begin again to operate as it was intended to. Exercise: The build up of toxic debris weakens the colon and impairs its functioning. The gentle filling and emptying of the colon encourages peristaltic (muscular contraction) activity by which the colon naturally moves material.

Colon Hydrotherapy, traditionally known as Colonic Irrigation, gently fills the colon with warm sterile filtered water through a small sterile rectal tube. When the water is flushed out, it carries with it any material that has built up in the large intestine(colon), waste matter, toxins and trapped gases.

All of these terms describe the cleansing of the colon. We use the terms interchangeably but most often say "colonics." To learn more, please read on!

Most likely, you will feel great. Probably you will feel lighter and enjoy a sense of well-being. Not infrequently, someone having their first colonic irrigation, will remark that it is was one of the most wonderful experiences of their life. As soon as the colonic irrigation is finished you can carry on with daily routine. For some, the colonic irrigation may trigger several subsequent bowel movements for the next few hours, but there won't be any uncontrollable urgency or discomfort.

Also known as a "colonic", "colon lavage", "colon hydrotherapy", or "high colonic", colonic irrigation is a safe, effective method for cleansing the colon of waste and impacted material by repeated flushing with water.

Almost never. Firstly, many of us have a considerable amount of impacted faeces in our colon. This is hardened, rubbery or wallpaper-like material. Substantial work must be done in order to remove it. Secondly, there is a subtle learning process involved in receiving colonics. you become more aware of what is going on in your abdomen, and as your body learns how to allow the cleansing experience, you are better able to enter into that process, and therefore more material is released.

The object is to cleanse and balance the colon by removing faecal matter from the walls and diluteing bacterial toxins in the large intestine. The therapeutic effects of colonic irrigation is improved muscle tone of the colon.

Waste material that remains in the colon can lead to severe health related problems. First, the waste material becomes toxic and can re-enter the body by circulating in the blood stream. Secondly, the impacted waste material impairs the colon's ability to absorb and assimilate minerals, nutrients and good bacteria from our food and vitamins. Last but not least, a build-up of toxic waste material in the colon wall leads to sluggish bowel movements and constipation.

Your skin actually "breathes" and is an important organ for elimination of waste material. Sometimes, if the colon, liver or kidneys are functioning poorly, the skin will be required to make up the difference. Surface eruptions on the skin may occur when toxins are released. Cleansing and healing the colon diminishes the burden placed upon the skin the other elimination organs. When elimination is accomplished through proper channels, the skin will very often clear up.

It is recommended not to eat solid food for about 2 hours prior to the colonic irrigation. Fluids intake unlimited. Also recommended not to eat read meat on the day of the colonic irrigation.

Colon Irrigation (hydrotherapy) treatments are designed to tune up the system so it becomes more capable of healing itself, rather than to cure any specific ailment. The modern colon irrigation is a gentle and comfortable procedure in a colon hygiene program which facilitates improved colon function and general health.

The colonic irrigation industry sprang up to remedy the ill-effects of the "porcelain throne." Sitting toilets result in incomplete evacuation. The wastes accumulate and harden, constricting the colon and exposing it to toxic carcinogens. Colonics are very helpful to clean out the impacted wastes. But, as more and more people use the squatting position, the need for colonics will diminish.

We take herbs to loosen up the old material throughout the digestive organs this material needs to be eliminated as quickly as possible so that the body doesn't absorb it from the intestinal tract. The colonics get it out fast and efficiently allowing us to go from feeling bad with no energy to feeling well and energetic in a very short time.

The water goes into the large intestines the opposite direction that stools are eliminated. In a colonic the water will go throughout the whole large intestines. It stops at the ileocecal valve, a one way valve that will not open into the small intestines.

Waste material, especially that which has remained in the colon for some time, (i.e. impacted faces, dead cellular tissue, accumulated mucous, parasites, worms, etc.), poses a number of problems. Firstly this material is quite toxic (poisonous). These poisons can re-enter and circulate in the blood stream making us feel ill, tired or weak. Secondly, impacted materials impair the colon's ability to absorb minerals and bacteria- produced vitamins.

In a 30-40 minute session approximately 15 gallons of water is used to gently flush the colon. With the appropriate use of abdominal massage the colon therapist is able to work loose and remove far more toxic waste and build up than any other short-term technique.
