Aqua Body Cleansing

Colon Hydrotherapy

What is the purpose of Colon Hydrotherapy?

The goals of Colon Hydrotherapy are to hydrate the colon, remove toxins from the body, make more room for the other organs, and tone the large intestines. Colon Hydrotherapy is a preventative tool, is not a cure for illness or substitute for medicine. It has been said that 90% of disease begins in the bowel. Cleansing the body of toxins regularly can have long term health benefits. We clean our body every day by taking a shower. It is just as important to clean the toxins from the bowel on a regular basis.

History of Colon Cleansing

Historical records indicate that cleansing the bowel is a practice that began 4,000 years ago. The oldest medical texts, known as Hindu Vedas, describe colon cleansing as the practice of using enemas and laxatives to remove excess waste and toxins from the bowels. Hippocrates, King Louis XI, King Louis XIII, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (of Kellogg's Corn Flake fame) and Edgar Cayce were supporters of colon cleansing. Colon Hydrotherapy is extremely popular in Europe and is also practiced widely among Scandinavians. People can carry 4-40 pounds of waste in their large intestines. When Elvis died his colon weighed 45 pounds!

Benefits

Physicians, Colon Therapists, and recipients of Colon Hydrotherapy have reported that Colonic therapy can help relieve the following conditions:
Irritability, Depression, Nervousness, Nausea, Protruding Abdomen, Bad Breath, Coated Tongue, Body Odor, Weight Problems, Constipation, Brittle Hair / Nails, Poor Digestion, Abdominal Discomfort, Flatulence, Lower Back Pain, Menstrual Problems and PMS. During a colonic, water hydrates old hardened waste, when the waste becomes soft, it is loosened from the colon walls. The old toxic waste is able to naturally move out of the body. Impacted waste in the colon can cause abdominal distention, discomfort, bloating, indigestion, fatigue and gas.

What will happen during my session?

When you arrive your therapist will give you some routine paperwork to complete. Your therapist will ask you some questions about your lifestyle and health history. You will have a chance to ask your therapist any questions you may have. If this is your first session at our office, your therapist will give you information about the body, the colon hydrotherapy equiptment, and tell you what is going to happen during the session. Your therapist will walk you through the entire session. During the session, you will be assisted in breathing exercises and relaxation techniques. During the session you will fill and release 3-15 times. You will be in communication with your therapist the entire time. Your therapist will make sure you have a good colonic session and that you feel comfortable and relaxed. When the session is over you will use the restroom for a final release and get dressed. Many clients say Aqua Body Cleansing made their colonic experience easy, relaxing and comfortable.
