Colon Hydrotherapy: Colon hydrotherapy
is a process of removing fecal material from the colon including
material adhered within the haustra. This procedure is carried
out by a registered nurse using a colon hydrotherapy machine.
Constipation is one of the major reasons people pursue this
form of treatment, though anyone who suffers from abdominal
distention, gas pains, and irritable bowel symptoms can
benefit from this treatment. We also find that patients
with chronic skin problems experience profound improvement
with their symptoms after undergoing a series of colonic
treatments.
Other indications for Colon Hydrotherapy include preparation
of the bowel for colonoscopy, barium enema, or surgery,
as well as treatment of patients with severe fecal impaction.
Colon Hydrotherapy also removes stagnant fecal material
from the wall of the colon, preventing the buildup of bacterial
toxins that can enter the portal and lymphatic system and
overburden the liver. Colon Hydrotherapy is a natural method
for achieving these goals, sparing patients who respond
poorly to laxatives from possibly negative consequences.
