Colonic Hydrotherapy and Allergy Testing

'You are what you eat'

We hope the following article will answer the question, 'is colonic hydrotherapy for you' ?

To answer this question we have to know what the colon is.
The colon is the last five foot of one of the largest of all the body systems, which is a 30' long continous tube from the mouth to the anus.

The colon has two major functions.
1. ABSORBTION - The colon wall absorbs water and nutrients back into the blood stream. It can, when healthy, manufacture vitamins, so it could only make sense for this to be a 'clean' environment

2. DISPOSAL - It is our waste disposal system. Discarded food and natural cellular waste, part of our normal existance, are disposed of in the colon. It is also the site for disposing of toxic waste collected by the bloodstream and lymphatic system.

HOW CLEAN IS YOUR COLON - To have a healthy body and strong immune system, it is extremely important to have a healthy working colon. Unfortunately today the colon is under attack and has more enemies than ever. These include-

STRESS - Work, pace of life, depression, unhappiness, all of which have a mental and physical effect on the body and colon.

DIET - Fast life styles have produced fast food, lacking in fibre. Even our so called healthy food can contain chemicals, additives and fertilisers. Excess alcohol and smoking all have an effect on the working of the colon.

LACK OF EXERCISE - Easy travel, television, computers, a sedentary lifestyle, all make the body sluggish and slows down metabolism. All these things and many more can slow down the colon. The colon becomes full of putrefying food, bacteria and indigestible chemicals, some of which can attach to the colon wall. This leads to a process called "autointoxication". Instead of removing toxins out of the body it absorbs toxins from the colon into the bloodstream, over burdening other organs affecting our health and immune system.

Typical symptoms of a toxic colon that respond well to Colon Hydrotherapy are!
Allergies, IBS, poor ciculation, bad breath, body odour, colitis.

HOW DOES COLON HYDROTHERAPY WORK?
It gently introduces warm purified water into the colon. By using repeated gentle flushing of water under slight pressure waste materials, feacal matter, gas, toxic substances, and mucus trapped in the colon are softened and removed.

The system is totally enclosed, the waste goes straight from the therapy session into the drains. All equipment is safe and sterilised to hospital standards.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

• To kick start a detox programme, not only will it give you a 'clean start', but you will find your self considering what foods you are putting into your system.
• Helps alleviate tolerances by rinsing away Candia, thereby speeding up the diet you are following.
• The obvious conditions that sometimes effect the bowel and colon, such as constipation, diarrhoea, IBS, Diverticulitis, colitis, wind and bloated abdomen can be much improved.
• The water introduced into the colon exercises the muscle and encourages peristalsis helping to make the system work efficiently.
• At the end of a session you can feel brighter and more energetic

It should be noted that how quickly these benefits become apparent will depend on the health of your colon and cannot necessarily be achieved with one treatment alone.
