What does the treatment consist of?
Colonic irrigation consists of slowly introducing warm purified water into the colon via a small tube. When the colon is filled, the water is allowed to flow out, bringing with it any loose waste. This process is carried out a number of times during the treatment, which lasts for 30-45 minutes. This is coupled with special abdominal massage techniques and the result is a gentle flushing of the colon, and loosening of old waste matter. The treatment is gentle, safe and very effective.

Colon Dysfunction
A toxic colon may bethe source of many health problems.
Do you experience any of these health problems?
Constipation, diarrhoea, IBS, colitis, diverticulitis, bloated stomach, overweight, food cravings, anxiety, depression, insomnia, PMT frequent headaches, indigestion, irritability, nausea, backaches, fatigue, bad breath, body odour, irritability, confusion, skin problems, abdominal gas, lower back pain, poor appetite, low resistance to colds and infections, low energy and vitality...
These are all indicators, that you may need to cleanse your body's elimination system. Colonic irrigation is an excellent way to accomplish this objective.

A healthy colon is the key to living a healthy life. The colon (large intestine) is the end portion of the human digestive tract .Its main functions are to conserve water "in" the body . . . and to eliminate waste "from" the body. There are"friendly" bacteria living in the healthy colon, which synthesize vitamins, detoxify waste and help prevent infection.

Unfortunately . . . the average person does not have a healthy colon!

The typical British diet, consisting of high-fat, low-fibre, refined foods including flour, meat, fat, sugar, alcohol and preservatives, is the primary reason the colon can become unhealthy. The toxins generated from accumulated waste matter in the colon are responsible for many body imbalances…which can lead to very serious weight and health problems.
Furthermore, the average British diet includes less than a fraction of the fibre foods necessary to promote elimination of toxins from the body. Poor diet, improper food combining and lack of dietary fibre make maintenance of a healthy colon virtually impossible.

The toxins present in the unhealthy colon can be transported into the circulatory system . . . Soon the body becomes unable to properly metabolize food and fat, or to provide vital energy for living.

A classic sign of colon toxicity in women-and one of their most common complaints about their figures-is the potbelly. This condition may be very simple to correct by adopting an improved health regime.

For many people, the signs of a colon dysfunction are so much a part of their everyday living experience…that they don't even suspect their health may be compromised.

Benefits accomplished by Colon Hydrotherapy
1. Cleansing
Toxic material is broken down so it can no longer harm your body or inhibit assimilation and elimination. Waste debris built up over a long period is gently removed over a series of irrigations. Once this impacted material is removed, your colon can again begin its normal elimination function. A colon hydrotherapy session may be considered a rejuvenation treatment for your body
2. Exercises
The build up of toxic debris weakens the colon and impairs its functions. Gentle filling and emptying of the colon can improve peristaltic (natural muscular contraction) activity, which aids efficient removal of waste material.
3. Reshapes
Over time, the natural shape of a problematic colon will become distorted…causing even more problems. The gentle water action and massage techniques of the therapist will help eliminate protruding pockets of waste and narrow, spastic constrictions. After a series of colon hydrotherapies, the colon gradually begins to resume its natural shape.

A build-up of old, putrified waste can block proper digestion, nutrient absorption, waste elimination and provides an excellent breeding ground for germs and parasites…

The best way to maintain a healthy colon and good digestion is to eat a natural wholesome, high-fibre, low-fat diet, drink plenty of pure water daily, exercise and avoid stress. But sometimes, even this, may not be enough . . .

Colon hydrotherapy has helped many people to overcome difficult health problems and is helping many more to maintain good health into the future. For these people, Colon Hydrotherapy has proven to be the key to living a healthier, more vibrant life!

Why is Colonic Irrigation Therapy important for good health?
1. Waste material, which has remained in the colon for some time, can become quite toxic (poisonous). These poisons can re-enter and circulate in the blood stream making us feel ill, tired or weak.
2. Impacted materials impair the colon's ability to assimilate minerals and bacteria produced vitamins.
3. A build-up of material on the colon wall can inhibit muscular action causing sluggish bowel movements, constipation and the results of the above disorders.


The Colon
Your colon, or large intestine, is a hollow, tube-like organ made up of muscle tissue that moves toxic materials along by wave-like motions known as peristaltic action, from the caecum, the beginning of the large bowel, to the rectum. It is approximately 5 feet long. When a person is constipated, the walls of the colon can become packed or lined with accumulated wastes from extended periods of intestinal overloading due to avoidance of responding to the "call of nature" immediately. The colon can neither absorb nor eliminate properly in this condition. When wastes from the blood arrive at the inner wall of the colon, the old hardened waste prevents their passage through its wall. To ensure proper cleansing of body tissue, we must begin with a thorough cleansing of the bowel. It took time to pollute our bodies; therefore it will take time to reverse this process through a series of body cleansings.

The natural immune system can only be built up in a clean body, a body with minimal amount of accumulated toxic material. The degree to which the colon is inhabited by harmful bacteria, parasites and other dangerous organisms varies greatly among individuals. Remember! Cancer of the colon ranks next to heart disease as the most frequent cause of death in western society today.

Colon Dysfunction
Colon problems are usually first recognized by an individual in the form of constipation or diarrhoea. The normal colour of your stool is honey golden brown and has no offensive odour. With constipation however, you may observe a darkening of the stool, due to the longer transition time in your system. The colon will distribute the poisons of decay, fermentation and putrification into the blood.

The symptoms of colon dysfunction can include:

A toxic bowel is the source of many health problems. By stripping down the old, toxic mucus lining of the bowel, we remove the number one source of disease in the body. In addition, we open up the bowel to a more efficient means of waste elimination and nutrient absorption, both of which are essential to any lasting healing process. It is significant to understand the importance of bowel care in the prevention of disease.
