FAQ's

How does colon hydrotherapy works?
A gentle flow of filtered, temperature- controlled water circulates through the colon, coaxing your body into eliminating stored toxins such as impacted fecal matter, mucous, bacteria, gas. There is just steady, gentle flow of pure water moving in and out, stimulating the colon to recover its natural shape, tone, and peristaltic action.

Is colon hydrotherapy safe and sanitary?
Yes. We use brand-new factory sterilized rectal tubes which are disposed of after each use. All of the water and waste eliminated goes thru a viewing tube and then is properly disposed of.

How do I know if I need colon hydrotherapy?
Inefficient elimination may cause colon toxicity, which in many cases is the underlying cause or factor of many commonly reported health problems. When the colon is compacted, toxins are recycled back into the bloodstream potentially causing toxemia or disease. If you are suffering from any of the following symptoms of toxic buildup, then colon cleansing may benefit you: Constipation, diarrhea, headaches, arthritis, allergies, gas, bloating, difficult weight loss, food cravings, candida, parasites, bad breath, low energy, skin disorders, fatigue, frequent colds, yeast infections, low concentration, irritability.

How many sessions do I need?
The number of sessions always varies with the individual, health condition, and objectives. It is not possible to cleanse the entire colon in one session. Often it takes a series of colonics to sufficiently soften and loosen the accumulated fecal material.

Can colon hydrotherapy affect the flora balance?
Good flora does not usually predominate in colons that have wastes stuck to their walls. A colonic procedure washes out not only the bad flora, but also the environment in which it grows. Then good flora has the ability to thrive in a clean environment. Taking probiotics speeds up the improvement of the bacterial balance in the colon.

Can colon hydrotherapy help to control weight?
People in developed nations carry within their bodies anywhere from 10 to 50 pounds of accumulated toxic materials. The majority of it is stored in the colon. Accumulated toxic waste slows down the metabolism. Colon hydrotherapy may help to eliminate toxic weight and increase your metabolic rate at the same time.

What is the difference between colon hydrotherapy and herbal laxatives?
All laxatives are irritating to the body and they flush out only the fresh toxic waste. Also laxatives can be habit-forming.

Can I become dependent on colon hydrotherapy?
No, actually colon hydrotherapy helps to tone the colon muscles so that they perform more effectively. Colonics will also help to reshape your colon, stimulate reflex points as well as the peristaltic action of your intestines.

What is the difference between colon hydrotherapy and an enema?
An enema will flush out to a degree but only the first 5 to 10 inches of the lower bowel. A colonic, however, comfortably flushes the entire length of the bowel and eliminates the inconvenience of rushing to the toilet for each release of material.

What are the contraindications for colon hydrotherapy?
Abdominal hernia, aneurysm, abdominal surgery (within last 6 months), cirrhosis of the liver, carcinoma of the colon, congestive heart failure, fissures, fistulas, GI hemorrhage or perforation, renal insufficiency, severe anemia, severe hemorrhoids, ulcerative colitis, uncontrolled hypertension, systemic lupus.

What if I am having my period?
Colon hydrotherapy is perfectly safe during this time.

Can I go to work after the session?
Yes. You can go about your normal daily activities.
