Hormones, steroids, waxes, antibiotics, pesticides, additives, dyes, coloring, preservatives, irradiation, not to mention toxins in the environment! These toxins set off reactions in our bodies and cause a variety of health problems. It’s not surprising that Cancer has become the plague of our time. Auto-immune disorders such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Candida, abdominal bloating, digestion problems, allergies, and skin disorders are now very common. Irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis, and colitis are the top causes for hospitalization in America. Colon cancer is the second leading cause of death in America today. We are the most advanced nation in the world today, yet we still are plagued by disease. Where do these diseases originate in our body?

Why Colon Hydrotherapy? 

A healthy colon is essential to a healthy body. Conventional diets comprised of refined, processed foods, high in saturated fats and low in fiber, contribute to many problems associated with the large intestine. The elimination of undigested food material and other waste products are as important as the digestion and assimilation of foodstuffs. Waste material allowed to remain stagnant in the colon results in decomposition of these substances and increased bacteria and their toxins. 

The colon contains the largest concentration of bacteria in the body. These bacteria provide important functions such as the synthesis of folic acid, B-vitamins and vitamin K from foods. Bacillus coli and acidophilus comprise the majority of the healthy bacteria in the colon along with other disease producing bacteria in small numbers. Waste material allowed to stagnate alters the proportion of healthy bacteria, and the potential for disease exists. These bacteria decompose proteins and carbohydrates resulting in the production of toxins. Some of these toxins are thought to be absorbed and may be a potential source of disease elsewhere in the body. 

The purpose of the colon as an eliminative organ is to remove this waste material by mass muscular contraction called peristalsis. Colon hydrotherapy provides therapeutic improvement of muscular tone, facilitating peristalsis and benefiting the sluggish colon. The effects of a stagnant colon can be manifested in the form of constipation, bad breath, skin blemishes, headaches, low back pain and lack of energy.                                                                                                                                                                                                  

Today, with modern technological advancements in colon hydrotherapy instrumentation, colon hydrotherapy has become a safe and valuable healing modality. It is the natural solution to conditions which interfere with the normal functions of the colon. This is a closed system in that gas and waste material are evacuated through the hose attached to the instrument and eliminated via the drain line. There is no offensive odor or loss of dignity. The treatment can be performed without any discomfort to the client. On your initial visit before your treatment begins, you will view a video showing exactly how the treatment will be preformed.

“The goal of colonics is to cleanse and open the colon so that it works properly and naturally.”
