Colonic Irrigation

UNDERSTANDING COLONIC IRRIGATION

Colonic irrigation is a therapy which gently cleanses the colon of accumulated toxic waste matter. Correct functioning of the colon is a necessity for the health. Most people quickly experience improved mental and physical wellbeing, depending on the amount of their toxic load and the years of incorrect lifestyle.

THE COLON

The colon, also called large intestine or bowel,is situated in the abdomen and forms the last part of the digestive tract. It is an extremelyimportant organ, which handles our food waste and much of our body waste.

A normal colon is populated by billions of friendly bacteria which assist in detoxifying waste, synthesise certain vitamins and helps us guard against infections. However, the delicate balance of this internal ecosystem is easily disturbed by a number of factors including stress, pollution, electromagnetic influences, processed food and artificial drinks, certain drugs, smoking and exposure to toxic substances.

COLONIC IRRIGATION

We experience better health and well being when the colon is clean and functioning normally. The delicate balance of this internal system can be very easily disturbed by a number of factors including stress, pollution, poor food and drink choices, certain drugs, smoking and exposure to toxic substances. The results of this imbalance are that the colon can become congested with stagnant wastes. As a result, poisons back up into our system. This is called “autointoxication”.

WHAT IS INVOLVED?

The treatment lasts approximately 1 hour and begins with a detailed case study and an explanation of the procedure. The colonic itself will take between 30 - 40 minutes. During this time warm purified water is gently introduced into the colon via the rectum. Using special massage techniques the water begins to soften the stored matter and cleans the colon. Old deposits are flushed away. Your modesty is preserved at all times. No fasting or special measures are needed prior to treatment but colon cleansing programmes may be advised between sessions but we would recommend reducing alcohol intake prior to a session.

BENEFITS OF COLONIC IRRIGATION

Having colonic irrigation assists your body in removing the toxins. Aseries of colonic irrigation may also help greatly in enhancing the ability to absorb many vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. The health benefits of detoxifying your system in this way are:

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

This depends upon the individual case and advice will be given at the first consultation. It may vary from one treatment to a number of treatments spread out over a period of time, after which preventative or maintenance treatments may be continued.

IS IT SAFE?

Yes. The water is introduced at a low gravitational pressure, so there is no danger of bowel perforation. In fact, the pressure of the water is far lesser than the pressure which the bowel uses to excrete. Colonic irrigation, unlike the use of laxatives, is not habit forming and it actually improves the tone of the colon.

HOW WILL I FEEL AFTER THE TREATMENT?

As well as generally having a greater sense of cleanliness, most people feel energised, lighter, thinner and amazingly relaxed.
