More Benefits of Colonic Hydrotherapy

Colon Hydrotherapy helps to eliminate fecal matter which may have been lodged in the colon for weeks, months, or even years. It also helps to keep you properly hydrated. Just one colon hydrotherapy session may be equivalent to having 20 or 30 regular bowel movements. Eliminations during subsequent therapy sessions can be even more substantial as older, hardened, impacted feces are dislodged from the colon walls.

Besides strengthening peristaltic (natural muscular contraction) activity in the colon to eliminate toxic waste and promoting normal and regular bowel movements, the following are the main and most important benefits of colon hydrotherapy:

Cleanse and relaxCleanses

Toxic material is broken down so it can no longer harm your body or inhibit assimilation and elimination. Fecal debris built up over a long period is gently removed over a series of irrigations. Once this impacted material is removed, your colon can again begin its normal elimination function. A colon hydrotherapy session may be considered a rejuvenation treatment for your body.

Exercises

The build up of toxic debris weakens the colon and impairs its function. Gentle filling and emptying of the colon can improve peristalsis which aids efficient removal of waste material. Colon hydrotherapy helps to tone and strengthen the muscular walls of the colon-it’s like taking your colon to the gym!

Reshapes

Over time, the natural shape of a problematic colon will become distorted causing even more problems. The gentle action of the water combined with certain acupressure techniques by the therapist help eliminate protruding pockets of waste and  elongate narrow, spastic constrictions. After a series of colon hydrotherapy sessions, the colon gradually begins to resume its natural shape.

Stimulation of Reflex Points

Every system and organ of the body is connected to the colon by reflex points. A colon hydrotherapy session stimulates these reflex points, thereby affecting the corresponding body parts in a beneficial way, similar to reflexology.
