"Colon Hydrotherapy is also referred to as colonics, colon irrigation, high enemas, or colon therapy. It is the infusion of filtered, temperature controlled water into the colon through a speculum that you insert into your rectum, assisted by the practitioner. When the warm (body temperature) water is introduced into the colon it will hydrate thus allowing a gentle elimination of water and content through your body"s own peristalic movement. This process is repeated during your session. Each individual session will last approximately 45 minutes depending on how the client's body is responding on that day.
Colon cleansing gently assists in the removal of layers of residue on the colon wall. Stagnant residue can create fermentation (causing toxic gas), cause putrefacation, harbor parasite or pathogenic gut flora. As well as, create a growth of other toxins, mucus, and bacteria. This accumulation can cause nonspecific symptoms and general ill-health (referred to as "autointoxication"), which can impact the body's natural ability to self heal, lower the body's defense against disease & infection. Unlike regular use of laxatives, or enemas, colon Hydrotherapy is not habit forming.
The session is performed to promote a healthy tissue lining of the Colon Wall. This allows nutrients to pass into the bloodstream more efficiently. It also permits hormones and lubricants to be normally secreted. Treatments help prevent toxin absorption from impacted matter. Colonics may reduce stagnation in the colon (constipation) and allow the growth of health bacteria and micro flora. This aids in digestion, promotes the production of vital nutrients, maintains a proper pH (acid-base balance), and keep harmful bacteria in check. Further, the shape of the problematic colon can become distorted. A series of treatment may help eliminate protruding pockets and spastic constrictions, gradually allowing the colon to resume its natural shape and function.
The process of digestion normally takes between twelve and twenty-four hours, assuming that the colon is fully functional. Irregular and infrequent bowel movements allow undigested foods to remain in the colon causing fermentaion and buidlup of toxic residue. Treatments assist in the removal of these food particles, promoting colon health and normal function.
Colon hydrotherapy may also assists in removing parasites. Intestinal parasites are (usually) microscopic organisms that draw energy and food from their hosts. Its is estimated that 200 million people are infected by intestinal parasites. Byproducts of parasites can be toxic to the body, and this overload of toxins challenges the immune system if left untreated. Parasites can live for many years undetected. Examples of parasites are tapeworms, whiteworms, redworms, inchworms, blackworms, pinworms, little fish, threadworms, fuzzballs, spiderworms, and stickpin worms. Colon hydrotherapy sessions support the body's immune system by assisting in flushing out these parasites."
