| The Colon Colonic Hydrotherapy or irrigation is a gentle cleansing of the whole colon. The colon is the sewage dump / rubbish bin of your body. It is here where all unwanted material from the body is stored until you evacuate. Similar to your rubbish bin at home it is susceptible to a certain amount of stagnation and the formation of decay and poisonous substances. When putrefaction and decay is present in the colon it is not limited to the site of origin. It spreads rapidly to other organs, causing a sort of autointoxication or self-poisoning. Through our past eating habits, emotional pressures, or just living in our modern environment, our bodies have become reservoirs for toxic waste. The poisoning can take many forms. Tiredness, loss of vitality, gas, bloating, candida, bad-breath, skin problems, lack of energy, bloated sensations, breathlessness, headaches, insomnia, poor memory, constipation, diarrhoea, sinus problems, the list is endless. The old stagnant waste in the intestines can inhibit absorption of minerals and water and may eventually lead to more serious problems such as diverticulitis, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, liver and kidney problems. Slow elimination of food also creates a breeding ground for harmful organisms and parasites. Recent statistics show that over 60% of the world's population has worms and parasites in their intestinal tracts! These unwelcome inhabitants can pollute the blood, organs and lymph system, causing illness and degenerative diseases. The colon therefore benefits from colonics to help reduce toxins and putrefaction being reabsorbed back into the body. Individuals with sluggish colons benefit especially from colonics as the action of the water helps re-tone and reshape the colon, which in time will give them daily motions when the muscle tone is improved. Colonic Hydrotherapy may sound a far-fetched answer to some of your health problems, but it is really no more than an internal bath, helping cleanse the colon of excess gas and accumulated faecal matter. It will leave you feeling refreshed, lighter & your colon healthier whilst your digestive symptoms diminish. | | |
