Colon
hydrotherapy (also know as a high colonic, colon irrigation, colonic
therapy, colon cleansing, or colon detoxification) is a safe,
effective method for cleansing the colon of waste material by
repeated, gentle flushing with water.

High Colonic / Colon
Hydrotherapy / Colon Detoxification
In today’s environment where much of the world
seems to be adopting a more hectic and stressful western lifestyle;
where people want to look good instantly, or because of work and
psychological considerations lead sedentary lives, maintaining a
healthy diet full of natural vitamins becomes harder and harder. And by default, maintaining a
healthy bowel is an equally difficult proposition.
The large intestine is our body's main organ for elimination. It's
main purpose is to collect all types of toxic waste from the body
and through a process using the peristaltic waves of muscles lining
the colon, eliminate all the solid and semisolid waste from the
body. The bowel
acts as the body's sewage system and as you can imagine, it is a
breeding ground for bacteria. Over time, fecal matter becomes
compacted, stagnating on the walls of the bowel. This can cause
constipation, bloating and gas. The fecal stagnation creates a toxic
environment, where mechanical abnormalities such as: Hiatal hernias, a
collapsed colon, a spastic colon, reduced absorption of natural
vitamins, and even diverticulitis can develop.
Even hemorrhoidal inflammation and bleeding, caused by strained bowel
movements can be directly related to obstructions in the colon. In
addition to improving dietary considerations, a therapy known as
colon hydrotherapy or "colonic" is one of the best ways to break up
the hardened, fermented and putrid fecal matter. A colonic is
similar to an enema. Whereas an enema only uses a pint of water to
irrigate and flush, a colon hydro therapist uses several gallons of
water to reach approximately 8 feet into the colon. This procedure
is called a high colonic, colon irrigation, colonic therapy, colon
cleansing, or colon detoxification. The patient lies relaxed on a
table for approximately 45 minutes to one hour. Patient reactions
vary, but most find themselves feeling lighter, having lost 2-3
pounds of old fecal matter, refreshed and more relaxed than when
they first arrived.
The Colon
Your large intestine is a hollow, tube-like organ made up of
muscle structure that moves toxic materials along by wavelike motions
know as peristaltic action. From the cecum the beginning of the large
bowel to the rectum, it is approximately five and a half feet long.
When a person is constipated the walls of the large intestine are generally
packed or lined with accumulated feces from extended periods of
intestinal overloading due to the avoidance of responding to the "call
of nature" immediately. The large intestine can neither absorb
nor eliminate properly in this condition. When wastes from the blood
arrive at the inner wall of the colon, the hardened feces prevent
their passage through this wall. Since blood circulates through
every organ in body and reaches every cell is the body, toxins in
the blood contaminate the entire body. To properly cleanse the body
tissue we must first start by a thorough cleansing of the bowel
(colonic). It took time to pollute our bodies to the point of
disease, so it will take to reverse the process through a series of
body cleansings. -The Natural Immune system can only be built up in
a clean body, a body with minimal amount of accumulated toxic
material. The degree to which the large intestine is
inhabited by harmful bacteria, parasites and other dangerous organisms
varies greatly among individuals. What one person is able to hold in
the bowel without obvious effects may be hazardous.
Colon Dysfunction
Trouble is usually first recognized by an individual as constipation
or diarrhea. (These danger signs along with foul smelling stool or gas
may be passed). The normal color of your stool is honey golden brown
and has no odor which is offensive. During constipation though, you
may observe a darkening of the stool because of the longer transition
time in your system. The colon will distribute the poisons of decay,
fermentation and putrefaction into the blood. The symptoms may
include: Allergies- Asthma- Bad breath- Backache- Craving for food-
Depression- Headaches- Hemorrhoids Insomnia- Irritability- Lack of
sexual response- Loss of concentration- Loss of memory- Menstrual
problems- Nausea- Nervousness- Overweight- Poor appetite- Prostate
trouble- Skin problems- Swelling of the legs- Tension and many other
ailments. -Colon hydro therapy is not a cure, but it is a valuable procedure
and treatment for a wide variety of different colon conditions. A
toxic bowel is the source of many health problems. By stripping down
the old toxic mucus lining of the bowel, we remove the number one
source of disease in the body. In addition we open up the bowel to a
more efficient means of which of waste elimination and nutrient
absorption, both of which are essential to any lasting healing
process. This is also the first step toward normalizing the bowel so
that the friendly bacteria will return to keep the colon safe from
autointoxication. -It is significant that surgeons and physicians are
beginning to understand the importance of bowel care in the prevention
of disease.
The Benefits of a Colonic / Colon Hydrotherapy
All anaerobic organisms are destroyed in the large bowel, including
pathogens (disease producers) and benign (friendly) bacteria.
Parasites are also removed from the intestines. Warm water used in the
therapy supplies heat to the body which relaxes the colon. Conversely,
the effects of cold water, also used in hydrotherapy, can induce
peristalsis in flaccid and elongated colons. In both cases, the
colonic therapy has a definite calming effect on the nervous system. Some
overweight individuals can eliminate as much as, eight to thirty
pounds over a series of treatments by cleansing out their lower
gastrointestinal tract. A healthy colon helps the body absorb natural
vitamins from food. When sufferers visit a physician, they usually
relate a history of one or more of the following conditions :coated
tongue, sallow complexion, abnormal body odor, brittle nails and hair,
sagging posture (pot belly), fetid breath, dark circles under eyes,
cold hands, and changes in blood pressure.. A series of colonic
treatments can remedy these symptoms.
