What is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Colon Hydrotherapy is a the safe gentle infusion of warm filtered water into the rectum using no chemical or drugs.  This is a restorative, painless procedure that is both relaxing and effective.  The individual lies comfortably on a custom treatment table.  A small speculum is then gently inserted into the rectum.  The therapist then monitors the temperature and pressure of the water infused into and out of the colon (large intestine) without any assistance on the part of the individual.  This method cleanses the entire colon without stressing the individual.  This method also provides a closed system in which waste material is eliminated within the instrument and drain line, avoiding any offensive odor & maintaining the dignity of the individual.

Colon Hydrotherapy is an extended & more complete form of an enema.  The enema's cleansing is limited to the area of the rectum and limited to shorter periods of time due to the natural compulsion to expel any material from the rectum.  The colon hydrotherapy method extends beyond the rectum to cleanse the entire colon offering greater therapeutic benefits.  Enemas or laxatives may precipitate dehydration while colon hydrotherapy actually improves the hydration status of the individual.
