In this article I’ll discuss colon hydrotherapy.

And the questions I had when I began colonics years ago.

But first what is colon hydrotherapy?

Basically it’s a gentle rinsing of the lower bottom bowel.

Also known as your colon or large intestine.

Why is my colon important?

Did you know that water and key nutrients are produced and absorbed through the large intestine?

And precious microflora exist there too.

And this microflora play a key roll in nutrient production, as well as digestion.

With it’s three main functions being storage, nutrient production, and absorption.

All of these components play a key roll in over all health.

How does it work?

At Clenz we use the open-system.

And it’s my favorite colonic system.

The treatment works with a gentle infusion of purified water into the colon,

rinsing and flushing-out accumulated waste and other potentially disruptive toxins,

or worse overgrowth of undesirable entities, such as bad bacteria and yeast.

Can a colonic benefit your overall health?

I think so.

Since the colon is a repository of waste and other toxic entities, such as bad bacteria, yeast and mucus,

unaddressed, these toxins can potentially re-enter our blood stream, and flow back into our cells, called auto-intoxication.

Therefore rinsing the colon may get ahead of waste distribution.

Does it hurt?

I was very comfortable.

For a vast majority of individuals who receive colonics, the procedure is pain free.

However, a minor discomfort can be felt during the insertion of the nozzle into the rectum.

And during your treatment, you may feel slight cramping as smooth muscle is activated.

And though very infrequent, clients may suffer nausea.

However, most love the experience, and feel immediately improved following their treatment.

Is it Safe?

Colon hydrotherapy is very safe when performed by a qualified therapist.

We only staff certified therapist and use FDA approved medical devices for the procedure.

Plus all equipment is frequently sterilized or disposable, and water purified.

What about changes to the gut habitat?

Healthy intestinal flora return quickly and usually within 24 hours according to doctors.

However, I like to eat something super healthy following a colonic to facilitate bacterial migration.

You can also entertain a probiotic.

Is it embarrassing?

Not in my opinion.

That said, your dignity is always maintained with proper draping, in a private room.

How many treatments will I need?

How many treatments will I need is the most common question that I hear.

And every person is different.

So, for me, there’s no standard number of treatments that are recommended.

Instead, we suggest booking a single treatment initially.

And then, discuss with your therapist, if more are needed.

However, we’ve found, that a course of 3 treatments, over an initial 2-3 weeks, produces best results, for beginners.

And, if you’ve been constipated a long time.

How will I feel afterwards?

Colonics have a “relief” effect.

There may also be a feeling of lightness and internal cleanliness.

And people are often energized for weeks following.

So there you have it, all the reasons I considered before my first colonic and I’ve been doing them for over a decade now.

Hope this was helpful, bye!
