The Benefits
of
​Colon Hydrotherapy

• Relief in emergency situations such as severe constipation or diarrhea
• Assists in removing unwanted waste material from the colon so it is not stagnating for a prolonged period of time -- stimulates normal peristalsis
• Rejuvenates the Colon -- its function, physiology and tone.  Toxins built up over a long period are gently removed in a series of treatments. Your colon can begin to operate again as it was intended. In this sense, a colonic is a rejuvenation treatment
• Hydrates the Body --  Besides storing the material to be eliminated, another important function of the large intestine is to absorb water during the process of digestion.  As water is introduced into the colon, some of it is absorbed through its walls and transported into the blood. This increases the volume of blood and ensures that blood reaches each and every cell. This facilitates the process of elimination of toxins through the skin, kidneys and the bowel
• May help prepare for a medical procedure such as colonoscopy.  See video on this page
• Detoxification
• Assistance in making lifestyle and/or dietary changes, such as becoming a Raw foodie
• Relief from long-term symptoms and illnesses, and from the negative side effects of prescription drugs
• Helps to restore original colon shape and motility: When there are problems in the intestine, waste may accumulate or stick to its walls. The colon, being a muscle will enlarge to accommodate the accumulating toxic waste and can lose its original shape or tone. This may lead to more problems. The warm water and the gentle massage administered during the colonic eliminates this waste and may help to restore the original shape of the colon
• Increase of vitality and energy
• Clarity of Mind
• Weight management -- by activating elimination and kick-starting metabolism
• Prevention from colon cancer and many other chronic diseases
• Removal of excess yeast, worms, and parasites
• Removal of unwanted pressure to surrounding organs --  As the volume of the colon reduces, due to removal of the unwanted accumulated waste, pressure is relieved from surrounding organs like the liver, heart and lungs
• Deeper Breathing and more freedom of movement within the chest and diaphragm
• Benefits the hips and lumbar regions of the spine -- by reducing pressure on the nerves etc
• Relaxation
• Ease to the Nervous system, reduces stress
• Increased Immune Response
• Eliminates toxins in the body from the environment, food, drugs etc. by activating this most important eliminative channel
• Improved blood circulation
• Improved abdominal muscle tone --  due to reducing intestinal residues
• Improved metabolism
• Feeling an overall increase in sensations of well-being and vitality
• Anti-Aging --  Creates an increase in mental capacity and rejuvenation since it decreases the degenerative process, normal or accelerated, by removing toxic substances that affect biological aging

To name just a few.....

The colon, just like the feet, hands, and ears also has Reflexology points along the organ. By introducing water into the large intestine we can stimulate the colon reflexes which benefits the entire body in positive ways.
