Colon Hydrotherapy a.k.a. Colonics, Colonic Irrigation, Colon Therapy…
is a safe, gentle and effective method of removing accumulated waste and toxicity from the large intestine without the use of drugs. By introducing warm, filtered water into the colon, hardened and old waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through natural peristalsis. This process is repeated several times during the session and abdominal massage is also given to help move things along. Subsequent appointments may be recommended depending on the situation. Colonics are greatly beneficial for those who suffer from bloating and constipation and other digestive issues. Colon Hydrotherapy encourages the digestive system to work more efficiently and effectively by helping to clear the build up. Think of your pipes at home» When they are clogged, it’s hard for things to pass through. When they are clean, its smooth sailing! Same rules apply with the colon! Clean the “pipes” so you can get back to enjoying life and pooping regularly! Colon Hydrotherapy is an underrated and underutilized modality that helps the body tremendously. Removing waste that has accumulated in the colon helps the body function better on all levels. Many people report back in as little as one session they feel lighter, better and bowel movements are better and more consistent.
