Colonic Preparation
We love seeing you increase your vibrancy and radiance.
Prior preparation will optimise your experience of colonic hydrotherapy.
General preparation advice:
Drink 2-3 litres every day. This can include pure water, live vege juice (especially green juices), herbal teas or vegetable broth.
- Eat lightly.
- Consume a diet rich in raw (preferably organic) vegetables and fruit.
- Adopt an alkalising diet avoiding processed or refined food, deep fried foods, alcohol, caffeine and carbonated drinks.
- Avoid constipating foods.
To achieve maximum benefits from your colonic sessions it is best to limit your intake of meat, wheat, sugar & dairy products for at least the day before your treatment and the day after, (the longer the better).
- Increase your soluble fibre.
- Eating 3 organic apples a day is a good start.
- Take 1 to 4 teaspoons of psyllium husks 3 to 4 times a day with extra water.
- Incorporate rolled oats into your diet.
Enhance mucoid plaque removal.
Mucoid plaque is the name given to the accumulated wastes lining the colons of many western people.
Take psyllium mixed with hydrated bentonite to assist it’s removal during your colonic series.
It’s important that you take your psyllium/bentonite shake 1-2 hours either side of food to prevent hindering nutrient absorption (we have both these products available for purchase).
Optimise your digestion.
Take a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar or squeeze half a fresh lemon into water and drink 20 minutes before food.
Consciously relax.
Schedule some time to breathe out fully, and relax to allow a full inhalation. Relaxation also helps release toxins!
Don’t eat anything for 2 hours before your sessions.
Best approach:
Book an in-depth analysis of your health and get a comprehensive wellness plan with our Naturopath Kirsten, particularly if you have chronic health issues.
(Cost is $80 for an hour’s initial consultation).
Have a infra-red sauna after your colonic session to help release toxins via the skin (your body’s largest organ of elimination).
Have a deep tissue or remedial massage to help stimulate the lymphatic system and remove toxins as well as to release any muscular tension.
Continue with a regular course of probiotics for at least 30 days after your colonic.
