WHAT
IS COLON HYDROTHERAPY (Colonics)?
Colon hydrotherapy, 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. This process is repeated a few times during a
session.
Colon Hydrotherapy is a
more extended and complete way of cleansing the colon. Colon
Hydrotherapy is a gentle infusion of filtered; temperature
controlled water into the colon. As it circulates throughout
the 5 feet of large intestine it softens and loosens waste
coaxing the body to give up its debris through natural
peristalsis. Colonic muscle tone is improved, which
facilitates peristaltic action and enhanced absorption of
nutrients, while helping to minimize the absorption of toxic
waste material collecting in the colon.
While claims are made
that the enema circulates through the colon, no evidence
exists that enemas of any type are able to move fluids up
beyond the splenic flexure of the colon. Enemas do not clear
the ascending or transverse colon as is shown by colonoscopy
after colonics. Additionally, there is no evidence of
improved muscle tone.
Why
Should I Be Concerned About My Colon?
The colon has been
referred to as the sewer system of the body. It is the place
where we store the waste material that most of us would
rather not think about and most of us don't until our health
becomes poor or we feel constipated or have diarrhea. It
best benefits the body due to release of this accumulated
congestion in the bowel.
UNHEALTHY COLON
Constipation, diarrhea,
frequent severe headaches, backaches, fatigue, bad breathe,
foul body odor, irritability, frequent mental confusion
chronic skin problems, abdominal gas and bloating, lower
back pain, low resistance to colds and infections diminished
vitality…. These symptoms may be indicating you need to
clean your body’s elimination system. Many people who
experience this type of cleansing have exclaimed its
benefits in relief of these symptoms.
There is no evidence
that a colonic provides any benefit beyond that of using a
chronic osmotic laxative such as a magnesium containing
laxative.
