Frequently Asked Questions
What is a colon?
The colon is the last five (5) feet of the digestive tract.
It is a hollow, tube-like organ made up of muscle structure that
moves digested food along by a wave-like motion known as peristaltic
action. The colon is the living area for a host of bacteria that
produce vitamins, such as vitamin K and some B vitamins. The colon
also absorbs water, nutrients, proteins and cell salts back into
the blood stream.
What
is Colon Hydrotherapy?
Colon
Hydrotherapy is referred to as colon irrigation, colonics, colon
therapy, or high enemas. All of these are names for Colon Hydrotherapy
devices, which use safe, filtered, temperature controlled water
for inner cleansing.
How
can I cleanse my Colon?
One
of the safest ways is a combination of diet, exercise and Colon
Hydrotherapy. It is the gently infusion of filtered, temperature-controlled
water, into the colon, by way of a sterile-disposable rectal nozzle.
Water in—Waste matter flushed out.
Is
the colon the only organ that holds toxic waste?
No!
Toxic waste is found throughout the body. When toxins cannot be
eliminated through the colon, liver, kidneys, perspiration or
lungs, the body must store them in the tissue of the body. Some
favorite spots for storage are fat cells, joints, muscles, arteries,
the liver and other organs.
What
are the signs of a colon that is not functioning properly?
When
sufferers finally visit a physician, they usually relate a history
of one or more of the complaints that go back years: constipation,
coated tongue, fetid breath, sallow complexion, abnormal body
odor, dark circles under the eyes, cold hands and feet, blood
pressure up or down, brittle nails and hair, sagging posture (pot
belly), tension, fatigue, allergies, indigestion, menstrual problems,
swelling of the legs, asthma, backache and loss of memory or concentration.
Will laxatives or enemas accomplish the same goals?
To
clean out the lower part of the colon, enemas are fine. But, you
are missing about four feet of the colon. Laxatives are an irritant
to the body. Therefore, the body produces a thin, water substance
that goes through the colon and leaves behind impacted toxins
and waste. According to learned centenarian Dr. Norman Walker,
“One colon irrigation is equivalent to 30 enemas.”
Should
I see my doctor before my first colon hydrotherapy session?
If you have a concern about your health or the appropriateness
of colon hydrotherapy, you should consult a doctor. If you are
diagnosed with diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease,
severe hemorrhoids, rectal or intestinal tumors, you would not
be a candidate for colon hydrotherapy treatments. Professionally
administered colon hydrotherapy is safe, and generally if you
are free of the above-sited conditions, a medical examination
prior to therapy, should not be necessary.
What
can I expect from Colon Hydrotherapy?
Colon
Hydrotherapy is not a cure, but a valuable procedure used to assist
the body with a wide variety of different colon-related conditions.
By retoning the bowel and improving colon functions, the entire
body is able to function more effectively.
What
other benefits may I expect from Colon Hydrotherapy?
Common
effects may be: sinus drainage, a loosening of mucus in the lungs,
improved range of motion, as well as skin tightening, feeling
younger, posture automatically improving, abdomen softening and
getting smaller, a relief from headaches, less fatigue and improved
bowel function.
The main benefit received by releasing the toxic
waste is that we remove the number one source of disease in the
body. The bowels work more efficiently in the elimination of waste,
and nutrient absorption is improved.
How
many sessions are recommended?
Research
done by Medical Doctors show a series of twelve sessions is necessary.
Two the first week (one today/one tomorrow); two the second week,
and one a week for the next eight weeks. The reason for that is
the human body is exceptionally smart. When we clean out the colon
the body starts pulling waste out of the tissue and putting them
back into the bloodstream. The waste then heads to the liver,
then back to the colon. Therefore, the second Colon Hydrotherapy
session is necessary so that the digested waste is eliminated
rather than reabsorbed. The same reason applies to the following
two the second week. After the first four, it is recommended that
clients receive one a week for the next eight weeks. This slows
detoxification to a gentler-tolerable rate.
Is
Colon Hydrotherapy painful?
An
impacted colon can cause discomfort and cramping may occur as
the colon contracts to expel waste. Once the major impaction is
removed, many actually find a session pleasant.
Is
it embarrassing?
NO.
Your dignity is completely maintained with proper draping in a
private room. The odor during your bowel movements does not exist
with FDA Registered Colon Hydrotherapy Device’s. There is
NO odor!
What
should I do before a session?
It
may be more comfortable to refrain from eating at least two hours
before your scheduled appointment. Drinking lots of good water
and juices is a great idea. Additionally, be as relaxed as possible
and maintain a good attitude.
