Colon Hydrotherapy, colonics and colon irrigation all refer to the same process. It is a

safe, gentle cleansing of the colon without the use of drugs. Colonics clean the colon

of old fecal matter, so toxins are not absorbed back into the body. It is one of the most

powerful and effective ways of cleansing and detoxifying the overall system and is

becoming well known as a tool for the prevention of disease. Top

The colonic session lasts between 30-50 minutes. Plan to be here for 90 minutes on

your first visit. We will go over the procedure, your health concerns and intentions for

times. The session will start out with you lying on a massage table. We start with

a gentle abdominal massage. Once the tubing is safely hooked up to the machine

and inserted into the rectum the procedure will begin with water gently being flushed

into the colon. Your body naturally releases the water. There is no sucking or pulling

from the machine. The water and matter will flow through a viewing tube and out

through the septic. There is rarely a mess or smell. The colon therapist will monitor

Some people find the entire idea embarrassing. Bowel movements are not

commonly talked about in a standard North American household. It is simply an

internal bath. You will be completely covered and your privacy respected at all times.

The process of cleaning the colon is as old as man’s civilization. Colon Cleansing is

not a new concept, but it seems to have fallen by the wayside in modern times.

(Sandra Duggan R.N.) The practice of flushing out waste from the colon dates as far

back as 1300 B.C. Early fathers of medicine Hippocrates and Galen were strong

promoters of colon cleansing as a medicinal tool. It was also recorded in 1500 B.C in

an ancient Egyptian Medical document.

The French physician, Ambrosia Pare was the first to describe colon hydrotherapy in

detail and to set it apart from an enema. The 1906 edition of the Larousse Illustrated

Medical Dictionary includes information on the uses of enemas and colon

hydrotherapy. During the 20th century, physicians Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (Kellogg's

cereal), Dr. Norman Walker and Dr. Bernard Jensen stressed the importance of

receiving regular colonics as part of a healthy lifestyle. In fact, until the 1930's, colon

hydrotherapy was commonly practiced in many hospitals and doctors' offices,

attesting to its legitimacy. Unfortunately, the surge of pharmaceutical drugs put the

practice of colon hydrotherapy on the back burner until recently. People are now

realizing the health depriving consequences of depending on too many

pharmaceuticals and processed foods and they are turning back to natural health

care. Top

In Ancient Egypt, a ram’s horn or gourd was hollowed out and utilized as the first

primitive colonic irrigation machine. Later, enema pots and plants (reeds) shaped in

the form of tubing were constructed. Sophisticated colonic irrigation equipment was

perfected in the 20th century. Top

Today we are negatively effected by many toxic and hazardous ways of living some of

which include: busy schedules, high stress levels, a dependence on nutrient-

deficient processed and fast foods, chemicals and preservatives, sedentary lifestyles,

alcohol consumption, smoking, recreational and prescription drug use, coffee

addiction, thousands of toxic chemicals in household and industrial products,

pollution and food that is grown in mineral depleted soil. The above list contains

some of the health robbing problems in today's world, contributing to a general

decline in the population's health, producing conditions from fatigue to more serious

chronic and disease states. Today many people are searching for their lost vitality,

wondering what happened to their energy. The billions of dollars spent by Canadians

on supplementation and the incredible interest in alternative medicine of late, is a

sign that people are not satisfied with their level of health. Colon hydrotherapy will

play an important role in helping you to achieve and maintain optimal health and

vitality. Top

Cleanse: the toxic material is broken down so it can no longer harm your body or

colon can begin to cooperate and do what it is meant to do.

Exercise and tone the muscles: the build up on toxic debris weekends the colon and

impairs its functioning. The gentle filling of water helps stimulate the peristalsis

session we are trying to tone the muscles so they can function naturally.

Reshape the colon: When the colon is filled with bulging pockets or matter or spastic

constrictions, the water, along with massage techniques from your therapist will help

natural shape. (However this is never guaranteed)

For prolapsed colons (transverse colon sagging down beyond the actual position) a

series of 6 sessions is strongly recommended. We also encourage the right blend of

fibre and complete abdominal exercises to help bring the colon back to its normal

shape.

Stimulate reflex points: every system and organ of the body is connected to the colon

body parts in a beneficial way. (Similar to reflexology) Top

In an ideal work you want to have three bowel movements a day or after you have has

a substantial meal. Envionmental toxins and limitations on good quality food these

days can still cause stress on your colon. A colonic again can simply be a

preventative measure to keeping your colon happy and healthy.

Colonics will also help the following signs of toxic material in your colon:

headaches,

backaches,

constipation,

fatigue,

bad breath,

body odour,

irritability,

confusion,

skin blemishes,

abdominal gas,

bloating,

diarrhea,

sciatic pain,

candida and on and on. Top

When the colon is happy- all other organs are happier as the colon is the root to all of

your organs and all are interconnected! Think of your garbage collector. What would

happen if all the garbage collectors when on strike. What if you had no where to put

your garbage, but to throw it in your back yard? Would you still want to live there? No.

Well if you have no where to put the garbage from your body, then your organs won’t

want to live there either. Top

Will colonics get rid of all my parasites?

This really depends. Parasites can also live up inside your gall bladder and liver,

therefore we cannot say that simply doing a colonic treatment can get rid of your

parasites because we don’t know for sure where they are all located. We can help get

rid of parasites, but I would strongly recommend doing a parasite cleanse guided by

your health practitioner along with your series of colonics. Top

Many medical doctors are not training in this area along with nutrition or other

alternative practices. Some of them see colon hydrotherapy as dangerous or they

don’t quite understand the process and benefits of this procedure.

Colon Hydrotherapy is just like an internal bath. Bathing on the outside is just as

important as bathing on the inside. It is a natural process that as long as a skilled

therapist performs the treatment there shouldn’t be any harm at all.

Our equipment is completely sanitized, we use disposable tubing and we have a

pressure gauge to monitor if there is any pressure on the colon. The pressure gauge

will let us know that it is time to release; therefore we NEVER put any pressure on the

colon or have any worrying about rupturing the colon. We also are always in contact

with the client to make sure everything feels completely comfortable.

We also have four different filter systems taking out all chlorine, sediment, particles

and an Ultra Violet light that destroys 99% of all bacteria. I would never want to drink

water that was not free from chlorine and any harmful bacteria; therefore we would

never want to put that kind of water inside of you. Top

Chlorine and antibiotics can destroy most good bacteria in the colon. Colonics

however help eliminate all the putrefied material to help increase the good intestinal

flora. We do recommend taking a probiotic supplement to plant the “seed” and allow

all the good bacteria to really nourish the intestines. Top

Everything has its proper place, but those methods aren’t really substitutes for

colonics. Enemas are useful for people who are severely constipated and need at

least something moving. They will empty the rectum only. They reach about 8-12 just

inches, where a colonic will go a lot further around your colon. Suppositories are also

for the very base of the colon, the rectum. Many laxatives have harsh chemicals in

them and can irritate the colon more then anything and some people can actually

lose their natural peristalsis if they become too dependant upon them. Natural

laxatives or colon cleanses will definitely help eliminate matter; also a colonic will

help eliminate, strengthen the colon walls like no other. It is definitely the ultimate

method for colon cleansing. Top

More and more of us are choosing to recognize our self responsibility for health and

well being. Natural and Holistic methods of living, healing and treating the body have

been around for centuries, long before pharmaceuticals, machines, technology.

Holistic practitioners and Naturopathic Doctors try to determine the CAUSE of

disease rather then treating or masking the symptoms.

I personally believe we were given all the resources on this planet to sustain a

healthy lifestyle and it is up to us the individual to self educate and learn what

promotes love, balance and heath to our body and what creates disease and

discomfort to our bodies. We can take this information to control what we can, to

nourish our bodies, let nature do the rest and not stress about the areas we can't

control. Top
