Colonic IrrigationThe therapy of colon cleansing, or colonic irrigation, and its benefits have been known and practiced since 1500 BC. and was described in an Egyptian medical document called the "Ether Papyrus". Hippocrates (4th and 5th century BC.) and Galen (2nd century) were proponents of colon cleansing for fever therapy. At the start of the 20th century Dr. Kellogg published a comprehensive approach to colon hydrotherapy which he advocated for use in treating many conditions such as liver toxicity, surgical shock, colitis and cholera. At that time many medical practitioners shared the philosophy that abnormal functioning of the intestinal canal is the start of much ill health, especially of chronic disease.
Today with modern technology and trained therapists, colonic irrigation is becoming a widely accepted as a treatment for disease and promoting well being. Warm, filtered water is gently infused into the colon using low and carefully regulated pressure. On releasing, gas, mucous, impacted faeces and thus, toxins are removed gently.
I have put together answers to some of the most commonly asked questions regarding Colonic irrigation I hope they will be helpful to those of you who are thinking of taking a treatment.
Who needs the treatment?
Just about everyone! Health begins in the colon and so does illness. If undigested food sits in the colon for any length of time the colon gradually becomes narrower. This is rather like the water pipes in your house being furred up with calcium deposits! The waste matter then becomes putrefied and forms toxins. These toxins seep through the walls of the colon and gradually invade the body, setting up toxic areas elsewhere. Taking regular colonic irrigation will improve your general health.
Taking colonic irrigation will help Irritable Bowel Syndrome, flatulence, bloating, digestive problems, headaches and migraine. You will feel more energized; your skin will become clearer. Often pre-existing conditions that appear to be unconnected will disappear. Recent research has found colonics to be most beneficial for those suffering from M.E. and Candida. As you can see; health really does begin in the colon.
What is Colonic irrigation?
Colonic irrigation (colon hydrotherapy) is the gentle infusion of warm filtered water into the large intestine (colon) via the rectum (bottom). The water is infused under carefully regulated pressure through modem equipment. When the colon has taken enough water, the therapist will gently massage the area to encourage the water to move through the length of the colon. The water will then be emptied from the colon, again through the equipment, bringing with it the impacted waste matter, which has accumulated over the days, months, and even years!
Is it like an enema?
No. An enema works on the lower part of the colon only. Colonic irrigation cleanses the entire length of the colon from rectum to the caecum (lower right side of the abdomen).
There is no dash to the toilet as during the entire process you will be lying comfortably on a couch.
Does colonic irrigation hurt?
No. It is quite comfortable and relaxing.
Is colonic irrigation embarrassing?
No. You will be covered from the waist down at all times. Your comfort and privacy is of utmost importance and this is always respected.
How many treatments should 1 have and how long does each one last?
This will vary with each individual. Just a one off treatment or a longer course will be decided for each client. You will not be locked into a long series of treatments if this is not what you want.
I would advise a minimum of four colonic irrigation treatments. These treatments should be taken close together, if possible over the course of one to two weeks. Treatment should be repeated once or twice a year as maintenance. The first session will last approximately 1 hr 15 minutes. There will be a health questionnaire to complete. Each subsequent colonic irrigation treatment will take roughly 45minutes.
