Colon Hydrotherapy
(Most of you will know this as ‘a colonic’)
So what is colon hydrotherapy ?
It is the introduction of warm filtered water into the colon. This along with gentle massage helps to soften and remove compacted faecal matter from the colon.
The majority of us have a healthy diet with regular bowel movements. Even the most healthy of us have hardened accumulations of waste which adhere to the wall of the colon and can prevent proper elimination of waste.
What happens during a treatment?
On your first visit we take a medical history and details of your diet and lifestyle. Once this is done you will have the opportunity to empty your bladder and then to put on a gown and to lie on a couch. Your modesty is preserved at all times, we use large towels to cover your abdomen area. A disposable speculum is gently inserted into your rectum, this is where the warm filtered water is introduced into your colon.
During the treatment the therapist may gently massage the abdomen to help to loosen compacted waste. The water and waste leave the colon via a disposable tube. See system used page for more information
How long does it take ?
Your first treatment would normally take around 90 minutes,
Subsequent treatments would take around 60 minutes.
It is possible to have a colonic in your lunch hour
How much does it cost?
What happens after the treatment ?
Following the treatment you can take your time to get yourself dressed in private.
You can then carry on with your normal routine straight after the treatment.
Is it safe ?
Yes - All the equipment used is pre-sterilised and disposable. The treatment room is cleaned after every treatment using approved disinfectant solutions which kill bacteria and viruses.
The equipment has regulators and restrictors to ensure that the water is introduced at a low gravitational pressure. The equipment also has a number of filters to ensure the water is filtered, softened and purified.
Do you require qualifications to administer colonics?
All our therapists have been trained at I-ACT (International Association of Colon Therapists) approved schools and have obtained I-ACT qualifications.
