INTRODUCTION TO COLON THERAPY

Despite treatment dating back to Biblical times, there still seems to be a great deal of ignorance about the healing benefits of colon therapy ----
Dr. J.E.G. Waddington.

Colon Hydrotherapy also known as colonic irrigation,a colonic, colon lavage and high colonic, is the gentlest, safest and most effective way yet discovered of clearing out waste materials, faecal matter, gas, mucus and toxic substances which have become trapped in the colon, bathing the deposits away using repeated gentle flushing of warm, purified water under slight pressure. A session of colonic treatments may remove between five and twenty pounds of impacted matter.

The pressure used is very safe because it is so low there is no danger of perforating or straining anything inside you. As the pressure is created by gravity- there are no pumps and no danger of accidental pressure build up.

About fifteen to twenty gallons of water are used, flushing through at about one to two pints at a time. To ensure absolute safety, the water goes through several stages of purification. The whole system is totally enclosed, right from where water goes into the filtration system to where the wastes go straight from the therapy session into the drains. So that nothing noxious can escape into the treatment room.

Colon Hydrotherapy is perfectly safe for people who are physically handicapped or the elderly- there is no upper age limit.
