Colon Hydrotherapy

What is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Colon Hydrotherapy is the safe, gentle infusion of warm filtered water into and out of the rectum. The client lies on his/her back on a comfortable table during the 30-45 minute sessions.

A Hydro San Plus system (a totally closed system) of colon hydrotherapy is used. All hoses are packaged individually and are disposable. Warm water entering the colon is first filtered through a double filter system. A clean and safe environment is provided.

The result is often a cleaner, healthier colon and an improved overall health status.

Assessing your Digestive Health

  • Do you prefer nutritional approaches whenever possible to restore health and enhance well-being?
  • Do you have a spastic colon, irritable bowel syndrome, nervous stomach, loose stools or constipation?
  • Do you often have a bloated or full feeling in your stomach, especially after eating?
  • Do you often have intestinal gas?
  • Do you avoid eating certain foods because they make you feel uncomfortable?
  • Have you ever taken an antibiotic for more than one month at a time—or have you taken antibiotics more than four times in your life?
  • Have you had any of the following: asthma, allergies, high blood pressure, heart disease, history of strokes, arthritis, pernicious anemia, an autoimmune disease or yeast infection?
  • If you have answered yes to any of these questions,
    colon hydrotherapy may be useful to facilitate
    in your digestive health.

Is your GI Tract Healthy?

Digestion starts with the stomach. Do you chew your food thoroughly? That is the first step to good digestion.

Gastrointestinal health is the goal. For proper gastrointestinal health, your body must carefully coordinate the breakdown, absorption and elimination of food. Bacteria must be in proper balance, and immune function must be adequate.

Poor digestion or imbalances in your intestinal flora can result in many illnesses, from annoying gastrointestinal complaints such as chronic constipation and abdominal pain to more serious illnesses which may appear to be unrelated to digestion, such as asthma or migraines.

Think of your body as a finely tuned engine, and food is its fuel. If you aren’t completely digesting foods and absorbing nutrients, you are not adequately fueling your body. The lack of adequate fuel—or the inability to use it properly—can lead to a variety of health problems.

Every organ of the body is affected by the health of the colon.
