Colon Hydrotherapy

Colon Hydrotherapy is an important part of detoxification. Eating processed food and over consumption of meat and dairy products over time may lead to the build up of toxins. Faecal matter containing toxins and bacteria may have putrefied and set hard, disrupting bowel function and in effect slowly poisoning the body. Compared to an enema, Colon Hydrotherapy is much more effective, since cleansing extends beyond the natural expulsion area.

With the help of modern Colon Hydrotherapy equipment, ultraviolet water filtration spring-cleans the colon and the rest of the large intestine, releases toxins, empowers the immune system, improves digestion, controls weight, reduces cellulite, improves skin condition and energizes.

Conditions treated: Colon hydrotherapy is a treatment of choice in constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, candida and yeast infections, allergies, skin disorders, bad body odor, gout, arthritis, chronic fatigue and gastritis.

Contraindications: Cardiac problems, over obesity, kidney problems, bleeding piles, bowel cancer, bowel surgery and pregnancy.

Procedure: A patient lies on his/her back and gentle insertion of the rectal tube is accomplished. Filling and flushing of water into and out of the colon is done which lasts approximately 30-45 minutes. It is not painful in anyway. The patient, with a specially designed machine, can view waste material going out of the body. A gentle massage is given on the abdomen to enhance the process. When colon cleansing is completed, gentle withdrawal of rectal tube is performed. The patient proceeds to the adjoining toilet and completes emptying the water, washes and changes, ready to start their working day.

Initially it is recommended to have six to eight treatments once a week or once fortnightly and with a follow up treatment of 3 times a year. The frequency of treatments will be determined by the physician based on the individuals needs.
