Why Colon Hydrotherapy?
Many people receive colon hydrotherapy for many reasons the inability to lose weight, to improve metabolic efficiency, as a preventative measure. Others use it for symptoms of intestinal distress, constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloat, hemorrhoids, irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulousis, colitis, parasites. Skin conditions such as psoriasis, shingles and eczema benefit from regular colonics along with those that suffer from headaches, migraines, back and shoulder pain, aching joints, and gout. Some are immune compromised with lupus, MS, spina bifida, cancer, arthritis, chronic fatigue, candida, infections, colds or influenza. Some use Colon Hydrotherapy during a fast, cleansing program, a raw food diet, a liver and or gallbladder flush.
Colon Hydrotherapy benefits the colon in three major ways:
It cleanses the colon of toxic material so it can no longer harm your body or inhabit assimilation and elimination. When impacted fecal matter is removed your colon can begin normal bowel movements. Colon Hydrotherapy is a rejuvenation treatment for your body.
Colon hydrotherapy exercises the colon by improving peristalsis (natural muscular contractions) through the gentle filing and emptying cycles of a colonic treatment, activity which aids in the removal of waste.
The massage techniques of the therapist and the slow gentle movement of water flowing in and out of the colon also aids in reshaping a colon that has over time become distorted. The colon naturally resumes its natural shape after a series of colon hydrotherapy sessions.
Colon Hydrotherapy sessions administered by a trained professional Colon Hydrotherapist using state of the art colon hydrotherapy equipment, the Aquanet EC 2000, ensures safety and maximum efficiency for eliminating constipation, and detoxifying major organs of elimination (liver, kidney, and lymphatic system) and restore normal bowel function.
Cleansing enables the body to assimilate nutrients, heal quicker, allow supplements and natural foods to be more effective, boost immune response, eliminate fatigue, improve mental clarity, clears skin, and reduce weight.
What can you expect in a Colon Hydrotherapy Session!A session is a comfortable experience for many people. Techniques utilized allow a small amount of water to flow into the colon gently stimulating the colon's natural peristaltic action to release softened waste. The inflow of a small amount of water and the release of waste may be repeated several times. Approximately 15 -30 gallons of water flow through the colon using a disposable speculum (water tube and evacuation tube) the removal of waste encourages better colon function and elimination.
During the session, most clothing can be kept on and the client will be asked to slip on a pair of disposable shorts and lie on a massage table, a sheet is then draped over them to ensure modesty. The client's dignity is always maintained. The colon hydrotherapist will massage the abdomen and several acupressure points to stimulate the elimination process while using several fills and releases. A viewing tube displays all of the waste as it leaves the body. A colonic session takes 40 – 45 minutes, a series of treatments are normally required to dislodge the toxic buildup. The Aquanet EC 2000 provides purified water to flow into the colon via a small water tube and leaves the colon through the larger evacuation tube along with excess impacted fecal matter, gas, mucus and parasites directly to the sanitary sewer system. There is no odor or health risk involved in the colonic procedure when performed by a trained professional Colon Hydrotherapist.

Why Should You Be Concerned About Your Colon?
The colon has been referred to as the sanitary system of the body, the sewer system if you will. It is the place where we store the waste material that most of us would rather not think about and most of us don't until our health becomes poor or we feel constipated or have diarrhea. Colon cancer is the second leading cancer killer in North America. Colon cancer appears more frequently in woman and as rectal cancer in men. Periodic cleansing would minimize the exposure of the colon walls to potential carcinogens. Periodic cleansing of the colon would dilute the toxin concentration in the large intestine. The result is a reduced load on the portal (liver) and lymphatic systems allowing the eliminative organs of the body (skin, lymph, lungs, kidneys and bowels) to equalize the removal of such toxins with their production rate. When breakdown in one or more of these systems occurs and toxins abound, the potential for disease exists.
How Many Colon Hydrotherapy Sessions Are Required?
Every person's goals will differ; sessions desired will depend on the individual. Just as some exercise on a daily or weekly basis to tone and tighten their outer body, some people follow an ongoing cleansing, toning and rebuilding regimen for the inner body.
Sanitation
Modern colon hydrotherapy equipment is manufactured through compliance with strict medical guidelines that dictate rigorous accountability. The equipment features temperature controlled water mixing and back flow prevention valves, pressure and temperature sensors, and a built-in chemical sanitizing unit and water purification unit. Disposable single-use rectal tubes and speculums are used.

Colon Hydrotherapy Client & Therapist Population
It is estimated that there are many hundreds of colon hydrotherapists in North America assisting hundreds of thousands of clients to enjoy the benefits of colon hydrotherapy. Many of these clients claim that due to colon hydrotherapy, they have been able to live their lives without drugs, tranquilizers, muscle relaxants, and pain pills. In a society where Eastern and Western medicine combined to give us the best of both worlds, the acceptance of colon hydrotherapy has continued to grow with impressive results.
Consider the following:
- One colonic may be the equivalent of 20 – 30 bowel movements.
- The average person, neither overweight nor especially allergic, may be carrying 10 – 25lbs of dried fecal matter in their colon.
- Improper diet, lack of exercise, lack of water, stress and ignoring the "call of nature" can all lead to problems in the colon.
- A healthy colon should be eliminating waste every 18 hours or 1 – 2 times per day.
- Autointoxication can be linked to nearly every modern disease.
A clean colon means improved digestion, better absorption of nutrients, increased energy and mental clarity, and a general overall improvement of health.
"The colon is a sewage system, but by neglect and abuse it becomes a cesspool. When it is clean and normal, we are well and happy. Let it stagnate and it will distill the poisons of decay, fermentation, and putrefaction into the blood, poisoning the brain and nervous system so that we become mentally depressed and irritable; it will poison the heart so that we are weak and listless; poison the lungs so that the breath is foul; poison the digestive organs so we are distressed and bloated; and poison the blood so the skin is sallow and unhealthy. In short, every organ of the body is poisoned, and we age prematurely; look and feel old, the joints are stiff and painful, neuritis, full eyes, and a sluggish brain overtake us, and the pleasure of living is gone".
-Dr. Bernard Jensen, 1994
