Today is International Day of Awareness of Food Loss & Waste! 🌍🍽️

Nearly 1/3 of all food produced is wasted — while millions go hungry, resources are drained, and our planet suffers.

✨ Every small action counts: buy only what you need, store food wisely, love your leftovers, and share whenever you can. Together, we can fight hunger, save money, and protect our Earth. 🌱💚

🌍World First Aid Day — 13 September

Today is all about raising awareness of the importance and impact of first aid skills. For us as ARCH members, registered colon hydrotherapists, first aid isn’t optional, it’s essential.

Our members come from a wide range of professional backgrounds: naturopaths, colon nutritionists, doctors, nurses, massage therapists, and practitioners from both conventional and complementary medicine.

What unites us is our passion for gut health, digestive wellbeing, and overall health — along with a strong commitment to safety, professionalism, and ongoing training.

First aid training is not only a requirement for ARCH membership, but also a vital skill that is refreshed annually. These skills can save lives, prevent situations from worsening, and ensure that every client is cared for in a safe and responsible environment.

Knowing that your practitioner is first aid trained provides peace of mind — it shows that standards are upheld, regulations are followed, and your wellbeing is always the priority.

👉 Thinking of becoming a colon hydrotherapist? Or are you a practitioner looking to expand your skills? Training through ARCH-approved schools ensures you receive the highest standard of education, where essentials like first aid are never overlooked. Visit our website www.colonic-association.org

Can you have a colonic treatment if you’ve previously had an eating disorder? 💭

This is a sensitive and often delicate subject — one that people don’t always feel comfortable talking about, but it’s a real and important question.

The relationship with food isn’t easy for everyone, and it’s valid to ask whether colon hydrotherapy is suitable if you’ve experienced an eating disorder in the past.

In this video, Sue Briggs, ARCH registered colon hydrotherapist practitioner addresses this question with care and clarity.

We invite you to watch and learn more from her professional perspective.

👉 If you are considering a colonic, always make sure you see a registered professional practitioner. You can follow the link below to find a practitioner local to you: https://colonic-association.org/find-a-therapist

How healthy is your relationship with food? 🍴✨

For many, it isn’t always easy. Some struggle with overeating or restricting calories, while others feel pressure to follow strict “healthy” routines that can become overwhelming.

Your relationship with food matters — and it’s okay to seek support. Working with a nutritionist, colon hydrotherapist, naturopath, psychotherapist, or counsellor can help you move toward balance and a healthier way forward.

💭 What’s your relationship with food like?

🌿 Practitioner Insight on GLP-1 & Digestion 🌿

We’re so grateful to our highly skilled ARCH-registered colon hydrotherapists, who not only support clients daily in their busy practices but also take the time to share their knowledge with the wider community. 💙🧡

This week, Enrida Kelly , an experienced therapist based in London, gives an insightful look at GLP-1 medications which are now increasingly common among clients of all ages, from their mid-20s through to their 60s.

From her clinic experience, she explains two of the main digestive side effects people often report:

👉 Slow stomach emptying (gastroparesis), leading to bloating, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and sometimes even halitosis.

👉 Slower bowel transit - resulting in constipation, bloating, and lower digestive tract discomfort, with some clients struggling for days without a natural bowel movement.

By sharing her professional insights, Enrida Kelly helps shine a light on why these symptoms happen, and how therapies like colonics, alongside naturopathic support, can provide gentle relief and improve digestive comfort. 💧✨

We are proud of our dedicated therapists, whose experience, professionalism, and compassion make such a difference in supporting clients on their health journeys. 🙏

24/08/2025

Gastroparesis is a condition that causes the stomach to empty much more slowly than normal, often leading to uncomfortable symptoms such as bloating, nausea, abdominal distension, and even bad breath.

Certain factors can make symptoms worse, such as eating heavy or fatty meals, deep-fried foods, or simply eating too much in one sitting.

Our ARCH-registered colon hydrotherapists have noticed this more and more among clients, especially those taking GLP-1 medication, where delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) is one of the most common side effects.

The good news? Support is available.
With the right nutritional guidance, lifestyle changes, and gentle therapies such as colon hydrotherapy, clients can often find relief. 💧✨

If you’re struggling, reaching out to a registered colon hydrotherapist, majority of whom are also naturopaths, nutritionists, or health coaches can help you find the right support and practical steps forward.
