HISTORY OF COLONIC CLEANSING

Colonics is an ancient method of healing and it would not have survived until the present age if it were without present scientific age if it were without value. In one form or another, cleansing of the large intestine (bowel or colon) has been practiced since 1500 B.C. Colon lavage was first recorded in the ancient Egyptian document, Ebers Papyrus, which dealt with the practice of medicine. Hippocrates (4th and 5th century B.C.) recorded using enemas for fever therapy. Pare, in 1600 A.D. offered the first recognized distinction between colon irrigation and the popular enema therapy of that age. 

Colon Hydrotherapy is an ancient form of cleansing the colon with water. It is safe, hygienic and effective method of removing toxins and waste from the large intestine (colon) using gentle infusion of filtered water by way of a sterile, disposable rectal tube. Today’s modern technology promotes safety, sanitation and privacy of this popular cleansing practice.

WHY IS THE COLON IMPORTANT?

The miraculous six-foot tube we call the colon, determines whether or not the body is polluted. Because of the daily rigours and modern diets the colon becomes the respository of accumulated plague and toxins, which disable the body’s purification system. The toxic material ends up re-entering our body’s blood stream and getting deposited in our cells. As a result of this autointoxication we feel and act far below our potential and we become susceptible to disease.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is colon Hydrotherapy?
One of the most important and effective ways to cleanse the colon is through colon hydrotherapy, also known as colonics. Colon Hydrotherapy is clean and relaxing.

A soothing flow of filtered, temperature controlled water gently circulates throughout the colon, coaxing your body to release the digested toxins* out and waste that may have built up inside.

Colon hydrotherapy is an ancient; time honoured, gentle water cleansing of the colon, by way of a disposable rectal tube. Water in, faecal matter flushed out.

Combined with sound nutrition, exercise, and a positive mental and spiritual outlook, Colon Hydrotherapy plays an integral role in achieving optimal and vibrant health.

Why is Colon Hydrotherapy important?
Colon Hydrotherapy removes waste from the colon or large intestine. As the colon is the disposal organ for solid waste matter and toxins* from the body, it is very important that it should be kept functioning properly at all times.

For this reason, colonic irrigation is helpful in assisting with the proper functioning of the colon. The philosophy of colon therapy is to quickly help a person improve their bodily functions and so improve their health.

What can I expect from Colon Hydrotherapy?
Colon Hydrotherapy is not a cure, but a valuable procedure used to assist the body for a wide variety of different colon-related conditions. By re-toning the bowel, this may improve colon function, and then the entire body should be able to function efficiently.

*Toxins are waste by-products, which are stored in the fluid between fat cells. Toxins accumulation is due to age, illness, medication, stress, improper diet, smoking, drinking, and lack of exercise and weight-loss (which due to fat breakdown is very toxic).

Is Colon Hydrotherapy painful?
An impacted colon can cause discomfort, and cramping may occur as the colon contracts to expel waste. Once the major impaction is removed, many actually find it a pleasant session.

Is it embarrassing?
NO. Your dignity is completely maintained with proper draping in a private room. The odour from a regular bowel movement does not exist with Colon Hydrotherapy.

NO MESS, NO FUSS, NO ODOUR – in fact a very relaxing experience.

Will one cleansing completely empty the colon?
Almost never. Many of us have 10 or more pounds of impacted faeces in our colon. This is hardened, rubbery material and substantial work must be done to remove it. One cleansing removes some, the second more. Your personal objectives will determine how many you may wish to have.

What should I do before a session?
It may be more comfortable to refrain from eating at least two hours before your appointment. For best results, prepare a diet of vegetables & grains.

What other benefits may I expect from Colon Hydrotherapy?
Apart from those already mentioned the main benefit received from releasing old toxic waste is that we remove the #1 source of disease in the body. The bowel then works more efficiently in eliminating waste, and nutrient absorption is improved.

Won’t I flush out all the good bacteria with a colonic?
If your bowel is toxic you have little or no good intestinal flora to begin with. Removing toxic material and gases is the first step. Replenishing the good bacteria can be accomplished by an oral supplementation and by adding bifidophilus as an additive after your colonic treatment.

Colonics are nothing to be afraid of. Many people have said that they are unnatural. But our diet has been unnatural also.

If you want to stay young and have a healthy body, if you want to have lots of energy and feel terrific, then you should try colon therapy! It’s easy, safe, comfortable and inexpensive. When you feel the results you will be convinced.

If you are ready to take care of the most important and most neglected part of your body, this could be just what your body needs!
