The Most Frequently Asked Questions About Colonic Hydrotherapy

Question 1. Are treatments painful? No, it is a very gentle and cleansing treatment. Occasionally there may be moments of slight discomfort when there is air or accumulated waste moving in the colon.

Question 2. How long does a treatment take? A treatment will last around 45 minutes, however, plan on an hour.

Question 3. What is the difference between Colonic Therapy and an Enema? With colonic therapy you do not have to hold the water in, you just relax as the filtered water moves in and out. A colonic reaches the entire colon whereas an enema only reaches the lower section of the colon. Colonics are much more effective because of this cleansing ability.

Question 4. Are Colonics safe?
Yes, perfectly.

Question 5. How many Colonics will I need? This will depend on each individual and their health situation, however although 1 colonic can have great benefit it is only scratching the tip of the ice berg. People have found that a course of 3-6 colonics are significantly more beneficial.

Question 6. Can you have Colonics while you have a Period?
Yes, this will not interfere with the treatment and in many cases it will relieve menstrual pain.

Question 7. Can I eat before a Colonic? It is better not to eat before a Colonic. Liquids are fine; however do not drink carbonated beverages because it will add gas to the colon. After a colonic you may eat.

Question 8. Do Colonics upset the natural intestinal flora.
No, what causes the real problem is when accumulated waste builds up on the colon wall, so that the intestinal flora is hampered from growing. This can cause many health problems.

Question 9. Can you become addicted to Colonics? No, absolutely not! Colonic Hydrotherapy is not a laxative. Laxatives can be dangerous and have a chemical dependence because you have to increase the amount to get the same effect. Laxatives irritate the lining of the colon to create a convulsed movement. When they are used too often, the natural peristalsis action is weakened which only creates more constipation. There are over 300 varieties of laxatives on the world market today and they are one of the top selling items sold. This says a lot about how unhealthy our diets and bowels have become. In contrast, Colonics cleanse and stimulate the natural peristaltic action so that the normal functions return.

Question 10. Can I work after a Colonic? Yes you may, it will not interfere with your scheduled day.
