What is colon hydrotherapy
Colon hydrotherapy, also known as Colonic Irrigation, is a gentle natural procedure that clears the faecal waste matter from the gut, leaving you feeling light and clean with a feeling of overall well-being. It helps to promote good gut health and supports a healthy gut microbiome.
Warm temperature-controlled, filtered water is introduced into the colon (your large intestine, via the rectum) – similar to an enema. The water and waste matter are then eliminated via the tubing, and several cycles of refill and elimination are then carried out.

Why have a colonic
We need to remove this toxicity and restore our gut's balance, harmony and hydration.
Cleansing - Our Modern lifestyles are highly toxic to the human body. Our diet of highly processed food, full of sugar, animal proteins, pesticides, parabens, anti-biotics, E-numbers, caffeine, and alcohol means the body’s elimination system – liver, kidney, skin, lymph system and colon – is simply overwhelmed and overloaded allowing toxins to enter the bloodstream. We need to remove this toxicity and restore balance and harmony to our gut.
It is estimated that 90% of diseases can be attributed directly or indirectly to an unhealthy digestive system. It is the bowel that invariably has to be cared for first before any effective healing can take place. People suffer from malabsorption and auto-intoxication because of a gradual build-up of many layers of impacted mucoidal plaque in the intestinal tract. Removing the mucoidal plaque allows for a healthy gut microbiome to flourish and improves nutritional absorption.

Frequently Asked Questions
Colonic hydrotherapy involves a gentle internal cleanse using warm, purified water. This process aids in the removal of accumulated faecal matter, gas, mucus, and toxins from the colon. Tracing back its origins to around 1500 B.C., colonic therapy not only enhances the colon's tone and shape but also extends its impact beyond mere cleansing. The positive effects often extend throughout the body, resulting in clearer skin, heightened energy levels, improved mental clarity, reduced occurrences of headaches, better circulatory and immune system functionality, weight management enhancements, amongst many other reported benefits
The process starts with a consultation to discuss your overall health and any medical conditions or concerns you may have, to put you at ease and to ensure the suitability of the treatment for you. The procedure will be fully explained to you.
The actual colonic session lasts approximately 45 minutes, during which warm water is delicately introduced into the colon through the rectum. Throughout this time, specific massage techniques are employed to encourage the release of stored matter and gas. Your privacy and modesty are protected at all times you will be made to feel relaxed and should feel lighter brighter cleansed and refreshed following the treatment.
At the end of the Colonic treatment it is possible to have an enema infusion added to the treatment. The Colon has an excellent blood supply and it’s a wonderful way to boost colon health and general wellbeing. Choose from:-
1. Coffee Enema - supports liver detox and helps to draw out environmental and metabolic toxins
2. Probiotic infusion - infuses 28 Billion friendly bacteria into the colon to support the gut microbiome and increase energy and boost the immune system
3. Herbal infusion - freshly prepared for your treatment using herbs to either stimulate your bowel activity in the case of Constipation or alternatively using anti-spasmodic herbs in an infusion to calm your colon in the case of frequent diarrhoea.
4. Anti-parasite - where clients have been travelling to tropical climes, or suspect a parasite overgrowth
This is a gentle treatment which involves warm purified water lightly cleansing the colon. You may feel an unfamiliar urge to use the bathroom at the beginning of the treatment, but this feeling quickly subsides as you become accustomed to the sensation. Most clients report the treatment to be ‘surprisingly soothing, rejuvenating and cleansing’. During the treatment gentle abdominal massage adds to your feelings of relaxation and comfort and will overall assist the effectiveness of the treatment.
Many clients report reduced bloating, a lighter feeling, and a flatter tummy following the treatment. However, it is important to note that weight loss primarily consists of the removal of waste not fat or Cellulite.
This varies from Client to Client just like with massages. Some Clients like to rest, others feel a surge of energy. Feelings of lightness and hunger are also reported, with some individuals not feeling inclined to eat for several hours afterwards. In certain cases, as the detoxification process delves deeper, there could be increased tiredness. If this occurs, it's advisable to consider scheduling another colonic as soon as possible.
Depending on your food sensitivities a probiotic may be offered following the treatment and a course of probiotics recommended.
