There’s no need to change your diet or do a cleanse. We assess the body in it’s current state and there can be recommendations on what is needed during your treatment. You’ll not want to eat a large meal an hour before coming in order for the digestive system to rest before the appointment. A detailed handout is given to suggest ideal meal choices for directly after your appointment as well as guidelines for suggested supplements to optimize gut Microbiome.

There’s no need to drink excess fluids before your session, because the nature of a colonic is to hydrate the body so that the cells can let go of waste and take in nutrients. You’ll feel a sense of deep hydration that will encourage you to drink fluids to keep the body at an optimal level of hydration.

Yes, men can benefit from Colonics and Lymphatic Drainage. They make up about 30% of my clients. While men have different issues due to hormone differences, digestive upset or bloating can affect anyone.

It’s absolutely fine and encouraged to cleanse the colon during Menes. Many women report that it can relieve cramping or hormonal upset as well as diminish PMS. Education is given on how the endocrine system is intricately tied to the digestive system and how both need to balance in the overall bodily system.

You should feel great! Hydrated, lighter, relaxed and empowered by your choice of self care. Because the body moves into the Parasympathetic Nervous response, clients report feeling mellow and calm.

Your gut and brain are connected through the Vagus Nerve, which exchanges neurotransmitters. A healthy gut can help relax this nerve, reducing anxiety and depression signals.

There should never be pain when engaged in a healing modality. The process is healing and respectful, with mindfulness that the client is relaxed and present. Colonics are simply a way to gently introduce warm, soothing water to the bowels. Each step is fully explained and client driven. Everyone feels nervous the first time and then can experience how healing the modality is and how it can greatly effect our overall health goals.

It’s absolutely crucial to understand that the body is all interconnected and that the skin is the largest eliminating organ. If there are skin issues, we look to the root cause which is often the disregulation of hormones or gut disbpyosis.

It’s suggested to do 1 colonic a week apart for the 3 weeks, keeping in mind other healthy practices to accompany the modality, such as healthy eating, exercise and mindfulness practices. All of which are explained in your session.

Your time will be filled with education about what is happening in all areas of your health - mind, body and spirit. It’s time to relax and learn about your individual needs from a nonjudgmental perspective.

Colon Hydrotherapy, traditionally known as Colonic Irrigation, gently fills the colon with warm sterile filtered water through a small sterile rectal tube. When the water is flushed out, it carries with it any material that has built up in the large intestine (colon), waste matter, toxins and trapped gases.

I may not be able to see a client if the following issues are present in the body:

Metal (Plates, Pins, Staples)

Medical Implant

Currently Pregnant

Recent Trauma (Fall/accident)

Pacemaker

Recent Surgery (Within the last 4 weeks)

Thank you for your understanding.

We use highly filtered water which passes through two separate filters before being heated to the correct temperature. This filtered water is capable of absorbing and flushing more toxins out of the colon because of its drawing effect on solid particles, chemicals and other matter.

Enemas are good to clean out the sigmoid and rectal areas of the colon, which extend to about 1ft. A series of colon-hydrotherapy treatments can clean out and remove impacted material from the whole colon which is 5 ft long. Additionally, colon hydrotherapy promotes peristalsis and helps the colon muscles regain tone therefore assisting the return of regular bowel movements.

Laxatives empty the colon short term but are an irritant to the body. Therefore, the body produces a thin watery substance that goes through the colon and leaves behind impacted toxins and waste. Colon hydrotherapy uses pure water and does not irritate the body. One of the tremendous benefits is that it actually hydrates the body.

Colon Hydrotherapy is not a cure, but a valuable procedure used to assist the body for a wide variety of different colon-related conditions. By re-toning the bowel wall and improving colon functions, the entire body is able to function more efficiently.

Toxins build up in your body due to stress and consuming too much acidic food like sugar, white flour, caffeine, and alcohol. The bowel secretes a glyco-protein substance called mucoid plaque to protect itself, making it hard to absorb vitamins and nutrients. This can lead to chronic malnutrition. A toxic bowel contaminates the blood, spreading toxins to the heart, lungs, brain, and muscles. Over time, the liver becomes sluggish and stops functioning properly, causing toxins to collect in other parts of the body and leading to disease. Cleansing helps remove mucoid plaque, rebuild your bowel and liver, and protect against disease.

A healthy bowel means feeling the urge to eliminate and doing so quickly and painlessly. Stools should be medium to light brown, have very little odor, and break up in water.

A healthy bowel may have two to three bowel movements daily, depending on what you eat.

We offer treatment plans best suited to the individual’s condition and needs. It’s generally recommended that a client starts with 3 sessions in order to see a difference in their health and then it’s assessed what further treatments are needed.

Please allow one hour for your first visit. This is a timed procedure, therefore please be on time for your appointment and slightly earlier for your first appointment to allow time to fill out your paperwork. Please allow one hour for each subsequent visit.

Alertness and energy come from an optimized, healthy body with a well functioning Liver and Colon. It may be that sluggishness is coming from a body that needs assistance creating energy exchange from the cells. Detoxification has been used to help the body feel more energy.

Colon hydrotherapy does not flush all good or bad bacteria out of the body. Once toxins are removed from the colon, the beneficial bacteria have a cleaner habitat facilitating their reproduction and multiplication, therefore achieving a positive bacterial balance.

This means feeling tired before feeling radiance during your process of sessions. Rarely a client can feel shifts after a treatment as the body recalibrate to balance. Feeling tired can mean energy is being used to repair and therefore it’s encouraged to rest when tired as the body heals.

All symptoms are related to issues of imbalances somewhere in the systems in the human body. For example weight is a by-product of the body needing to store toxins in a fat cell. Therefore stubborn weight can not be addressed by diet or exercise but through gentle detoxification in order for the system to balance.

No, colon hydrotherapy will not weaken any organ. On the contrary, one of the features of colon hydrotherapy is the toning of the colon muscles, which helps in maintaining and resuming regular bowel movements.

The colon will probably never be empty, as it’s an organ in continuous use. As more of the impacted material is released, clients comment on feeling the water enter higher regions of the colon without any sense of obstruction. The objective should not be an empty colon, but rather a well functioning colon.

Many clients report better digestion, clearer skin, brighter eyes, energy and balanced bathroom habits in general. The goal in this modality to to create balance and radiance through a healthy, functioning body.

Your dignity and privacy is completely maintained at all times in the comfort of our calming and soothing private treatment room. During your bowel movement, there is no odor with the closed system.

There are a few contra-indications to keep in mind when considering colon hydrotherapy, including recent colon and abdominal surgeries, hernias, uncontrolled high blood pressure and other conditions. We thoroughly check the suitability of each individual prior to starting any treatment. In some cases, we may refer you to your doctor for further examinations to assess suitability for treatment.

No change in diet is necessary prior to a treatment. There are guidelines given for Microbiome optimization and a suggested foods to include in a healthy diet during your treatment plan.

It encouraged to eat something before your session. Keep in mind to not eat a huge amount an hour before coming in because the client will feel more comfortable with the stomach massage.

Absolutely! You can do whatever you’d like as you’ll be feeling balanced and refreshed. Expect a cleaner sweat while exercising because of the hydration given to the body.

Following a cleansing of the large intestinal, the body may feel very relaxed. This is simply your body working out and processing through its cleaning period. Give the body proper rest is to rejuvenate. Immediately after receiving Colon Hydrotherapy, it is important to:

Drink plenty of liquids (purified water, juices, herb teas and electrolyte liquids) to keep hydration consistent.

Avoid eating raw vegetables straight after the treatment. Steamed vegetables and raw fruit are fine. (To be chewed very thoroughly).

Reduce meat consumption (especially beef, pork as well as chicken), alcohol, caffeine, and sugar intake.

In the 1989 study, “Effects of Colon Hydrotherapy on Serum Electrolytes” conducted by National College of Naturopathic Medicine, Portland, USA found: “No patients experienced any clinically significant symptoms or disturbances”.

To keep my Liability Insurance, I am only able to see Men and Women between the ages of 18-65. This is a great age range because each of the stages of life need different types of support.
