Colon Hydrotherapy - closed system

Colon hydrotherapy, also called Colon Irrigation is the fastest and natural way of detoxification.

The colon is a vital organ involved in removing toxins from the blood. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most neglected organs in the human body. Cleansing the colon using colon hydrotherapy (also known as colon irrigation) is one of the fastest ways to detoxify your body, restoring its natural balance. 

 

The procedure involves a soothing flow of purified, temperature-regulated water, gently infused into the colon via the rectum. The system is closed so there is no odour. No chemicals or drugs are involved and the procedure is both relaxing and effective.  It also provides an excellent workout for the colon improving the wave like muscle contractions (peristalsis) that move digested material through the colon.

What happens during the first session?
 

  • The first session usually lasts about 45 minutes.

  • Before we begin, we will explain the procedure and the machine.

  • Next, we will ask you to remove appropriate clothing and to empty your bladder.

  • You will then lay down in half-seated position fully covered by towel. A blanket is provided if needed. 

  • Before insertion we will gently insert a lubricated disposable speculum into the rectum. This is the only moment when you may feel uncomfortable.

  • After insertion you will be invited to lay comfortably on your back - fully covered again

  • During the procedure there is no odour because the machine is connected to the general waste pipe so the system is closed. There is a viewing tube which allows the therapist to examine what is coming out of your body. You are also able to watch and ask any questions.

  • During the session, your colon will be filled and emptied a few times to complete the cleansing process. The therapist will also massage your abdomen.

  • Once the session is complete, we recommend you use the toilet for 5 - 15 minutes to empty the rest of water from your bowel. Take your time to ensure your bowel is empty to avoid accidents on the way home.

  • After the session the therapist will give you a recommendation for future treatments based on the results of the current session.
