Colon Hydrotherapy
Health from the inside-out
Colon hydrotherapy is a very important treatment for jumpstarting any metabolic disorder of the body. it is a gentle way to clear out old waste that may become trapped over time. This trapped waste provides breeding grounds for unfriendly bacteria and yeasts to take up residence. The health implications are many in such a situation.
Colon hydrotherapy is also a much gentler way to prep for your routine colonoscopy! Forget the aggressive and uncomfortable colon purgatives typically prescribed and book a series of 3 gentle colon hydrotherapy treatments instead!
How it works:
-
A very brief exam is done to ensure your safety with the treatment
-
The treatment consists of introducing low pressure, high volume, temperature controlled water into the colon through a tube inserted a short distance into the rectum.
-
As water fills the colon, it gently expands the tissues freeing trapped waste matter allowing it to be safely removed from the body. The expansion of the colon re-tones the musculature and helps the body in forming proper bowel movements.
-
Release of the water is simple and is no more challenging that relaxing for urination or a regular bowel movement.
-
The treatment only takes approximately 45 minutes
-
You will be fully covered during the treatment and only brief exposure of the "area of interest" is needed for the exam, initiation and termination of treatment.
Most people feel very light and energized following a treatment. It is recommended that a series of 4-6 colon hydrotherapy treatments be done to maximize effectiveness.

FAQ ABOUT HYDROTHERAPY
WHAT DO I WEAR FOR MY TREATMENT?
Depending upon the type of treatment you are getting here are some suggestions:
Constitutional Hydrotherapy - This treatment is done on the skin of the torso and back so you will likely just need a bottom that you don't mind getting a little wet. Many people choose to bring a bathing suit to change into for the treatment. Rest assured that you will never be exposed and we keep our treatment rooms at a very comfortable temperature
