Colon Hydrotherapy
“Proper elimination and effective detoxification are keys to the success of the Body and Blood.”
What is Colon Hydrotherapy?
Colon hydrotherapy is a method of removing waste from the large intestine, without the use of drugs. By introducing filtered water into the colon, the waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through natural peristalsis. This process is repeated a few times during a session.
Why Should I Be Concerned About My Colon?
The colon has been referred to as the sewer system of the body. It is the place where we store the waste material that mostof us would rather not think about. A healthy colon produces Vitamins B, and K, and absorbs water. A healthy digestive tract helps support a healthy immune system.
How Many Colon Hydrotherapy Sessions Does One Need?
The number of colon hydrotherapy sessions desired will depend on the individual. Every person's goals will differ. Just as some people exercise on a dialy or weekly basis to tone and tighten their outer body, some people also have their own ongoing cleansing, toning and rebuilding regimen for their inner body. Colon hydrotherapy could be used as part of any regular maintenance program.
Historical View
Historians tell us that the practice of Colon Hydrotherapy or, in its most basic form, the enema was first used by the Egyptians. The Ebers Papyrus, of the 14th century B.C., and the Edwin Smith Papyrus (c. 1700 B.C.), both mention enemas and give directiosn for the use of the enema.
The Essene Gospel of the third century stated, "The uncleanness within is greater than the uncleanness without. And he who cleanses himself without, but within remains unclean, is like a tomb that outward is painted fair, but is within full of all manner of horrible uncleannesses and abominations."
By the late 19th Century and early 20th Century, with the advent of rubber, the enema or clyster slowly gave way to colon hydrotherapy equipment.
Dr. Kellogg reported in the 1917 Journal of American Medicine that in the treatment of gastrointestinal disease in over 40,000 cases, he had used surgery in only twenty cases. The rest were helped as a result of cleansing the bowels, diet, and excerise.
Colon hydrotherapy gained the attention of James, A. Wiltsie, M.D., who contended that "our knowledge of the normal and abnormal physiology of the colon, and of its pathology and management, has not kept pace with that of many organs and systems of the body." He went on to say, "As long as we continue to assume that the colon will take care of itself, just that long will remain in complete ignorance of perhaps the most important source of ill health in the whole body".
What Is A Colon Hydrotherapy Session Like?
A session is a comfortable experience for most people, however, if discomfort is experienced, the session can be stopped at any time. 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. The removal of waste should encourage better colon function and elimination.
During the session, most clothing can be kept on and you will be draped, or a gown might be worn to ensure modesty. Your dignity is always maintained.
Sanitation
Modern colon irrigation equipment is manufactured through compliance with strict federal guidelines that dictate rigorous accountability. Disposable single-use rectal tubes, and/or speculae are highly recommended. The facility should be immaculate.
Cautions & Recommendations:
Colon irrigation may not be for everyone, please check with your physcian or health care practitioner prior to the session.
