Frequently
Asked Questions
Can I have a Colonic if I am on the pill?
Yes you can have a Colonic it does not interfere with it
Can I have a Colonic if I have my period?
Yes your therapist wears gloves during the treatment and you
are lying on a pad so there is no need to worry about leakage.
Most women find having a Colonic during there period very
beneficial as quiet often herbs such as camomile and wild
yam will be used and this immediately clears away any cramps
associated with menstratution also by emptying the bowel of
matter it makes the period much easier.
Why not use enemas, suppositories or laxatives instead?
Well, every thing has its proper place, but those things really
aren’t substitutes for colonics. Enemas are useful for
emptying the rectum (the lowest 8 to 12 inches of the colon).
Usually, one or two pints of water are used to do that. Suppositories
are intended to accomplish the same task. Laxatives particularly
herbal laxatives are formulated for various purposes, such
as: to undo the effects of temporary constipation, to build
up the tone of the colon muscle, ect. But the Rolls Royce
of colon cleasing without question is Colonic hydrotherapy.
 What will colonics do to the colon?
Specifically, a Colonic is used to accomplish the following:
- Cleanse the colon: Toxic material is broken down so it
can no longer harm your body or inhibit assimilation and
elimination. Even debris built up over a long period is
gently, but surely removed in the process of a series of
treatments. Once impacted material is removed, your colon
can begin again to co-operate as it was intended to. In
this very really sense a Colonic is a rejuvenation treatment.
- It Exercises the Colon Muscles: The build up of toxic
debris weakens the colon and impairs it’s functioning.
The gentle filling and emptying of the colon improves peristaltic
(muscular contration) activity by which the colon naturally
moves material.
- It Reshapes the Colon: When problem conditions exist
in the colon, they tend to alter its shape, which in turn
causes more problems. The gentle action of the water, coupled
with the massage techniques of the colon therapist helps
to eliminate bulging pockets of waste and narrowed, spastic
constrictions finally enabling the colon to resume its natural
state.
- It Stimulates Reflex Points: Every systems and organ
of the body the body is connected to the colon by reflex
points Colonic stimulates these points, thereby affecting
the corresponding body parts in a beneficial way.
Is
a Colonic painful?
It rarely is. Usually, painful experiences are the
result of resistance and tension. A professional colon therapist
is skilled at putting you at your ease and minimizing discomfort.
Most people actually enjoy the Colonic and are especially
pleased with the unaccustomed sensation of feeling lighter,
clean and clear afterward. Sometimes during a Colonic the
colon muscles will contract suddenly expelling considerable
amounts of liquid and waste into the rectum. Such episodes,
if they do occur, are brief and easily tolerated.
Is it embarrassing to have a Colonic?
No, you will fully maintain your personal dignity. You will
be in a private room with only your therapist, who fully appreciates
the sensitivity of the Colonic procedure and will help you
feel at ease. Your emotions will be acknowledged and honoured.
After the gentle insertion of a small tube into the rectum,
you are completely covered. Rubber tubing carries clean water
in and waste out in a gravity-pressured system. The mess and
odour sometimes present during an enema simply does not exist
with a Colonic.
Is there anything I need to do to get ready for a
Colonic?
Since your abdomen will be massaged it is a good idea to eat
or drink lightly in the 2 hours immediately preceding a Colonic.
Also helpful, but not essential, emptying the rectum with
a bowel movement just prior to the Colonic saves time and
permits more to be accomplished.
Are colonics dangerous in any way?
Being an essentially natural process, there is virtually no
danger with a Colonic. Our intent is to provide a safe and
healthy service so that you do not have to worry. Cleaning
and sterilization of the necessary equipment is done as normal
procedure and clean linen is used for each Colonic as well.
 Are colonics habit forming?
The Colonic is a tool intended to be used to create a clean
and healthy colon. A colon therapist, who is dedicated to
your health, will encourage you to set a goal of having a
well-functioning colon. Our fulfilment comes from assisting
you in
healing your colon, not in making you dependent upon colonics.
Actually, one of its features is that a Colonic can be used
to tonify the colon muscle so that the colon doesn’t
perform so sluggishly. Many people have sluggish colons. It
may take days for bowel movements to return after a good Colonic.
This is when people think they are becoming “dependent”
on colonics. One good Colonic is worth 20 or so regular bowel
movements, so it may take some time for faecal material to
build up in the colon once again if one has a sluggish colon.
When the colon is sluggish and bowel movements do not return
for a few days after one Colonic, it is an indication that
extensive colon work is needed to remove the debris that the
bowel has built up over the years. This build up of faecal
material has decreased the muscular action in the colon. Once
a series of colonics is completed, the colon will begin to
function like Mother Nature intended. Cononics give you a
feeling of being lighter, cleaner and healthier with a sense
of well being. Cleansing and building programmes offer preventative
measures so that you can be in control of your own health.
Dietary changes may be necessary to ensure long lasting and
vital health.
Will Colonic clear up my skin?
Your skin actually “breathes” and is an important
organ of elimination of waste material. Sometimes, if the
colon, liver or kidneys are functioning poorly, the skin will
be required to make up the difference. Surface eruptions on
the skin of various sorts may orrur due to toxins being released.
Cleansing and healing the colon diminishes the burden placed
upon the skin as well as the other organs of elimination:
lungs, liver and kidneys. As elimination is accomplished through
its proper channels, the skin will very often clear up.
