Gentle Treatment with History
Colon Hydrotherapy is not a new treatment. In fact, it was used in hospitals until recent times when it was replaced by strong purgatives which are used for emptying the bowel before procedures or treating faecal impaction.
The colonic treatment stimulates bowel activity by using the body's natural nerve and muscular response mechanisms, so is essentially a natural treatment. Laxatives are used to initiate a response by acting in different ways, such as by irritation or reversing the osmotic gradient.
The gentle flow of water during the colonic treatment stimulates the body's natural nerve and muscular activity to help tone and exercise the bowel, thus aiding the evacuation of waste both during and after treatment.
Colonic treatment is used as a naturopathic modality and clients who choose this treatment include those who suffer from various bowel conditions. IBS and constipation being the top of the list of reasons why. One of the best things about colonic hydrotherapy is that the benefits of the treatment are very personal to the client. This means that as a client you will know how you feel after the treatment. You won't need to be influenced by anyone else.
I’ve been treating clients at the Naturality Wellness Centre since 2008. It’s always an absolute pleasure to help and guide everyone gain better health. I trained with NCCH (National College of Colon Hydrotherapy) and are registered with ARCH (Association and register of Colon Hydrotherapists) who set the standards for our work. I regularly meet with colleagues and gain further insight to my studies by attending training to acquire my 30 hours a year CPD.
However, when you first book for a treatment, I know how daunting it can be, and its why I always talk to you about each step of the procedure and check in with you how you are feeling. There will be a health questionnaire I will need you to fill in, I’ll need to know if you have had any major operations, any medications you are taking and your general health, as in what you eat, do and how you feel.
If you have any questions about the treatment, please drop me a line, I’m happy to answer.
