Colon Hydrotherapy: A Gentle Path to Detoxification and Wellness
Colon hydrotherapy, a safe and effective method for eliminating waste from the large intestine, offers a drug-free approach to achieving optimal digestive health. By introducing purified and temperature-regulated water into the colon, waste is gently softened and loosened, encouraging natural peristalsis and resulting in effortless evacuation. This cleansing process is repeated during a session, ensuring your comfort and well-being.
A Glimpse into the History of Colon Hydrotherapy
The practice of colon hydrotherapy has ancient roots in promoting healing. Enemas were documented as early as 1500 B.C. in the “Ebers Papyrus,” an ancient Egyptian medical manuscript. Renowned historical figures like Hippocrates, Galen, and Pare also advocated for the use of enema therapy. In earlier times, hollow reeds facilitated the introduction and flow of water from natural sources for rectal cleansing. For more historical insights, visit our BLOG: History of Colon Hydrotherapy.
Bernard Jensen, D.C., noted, “In times past, knowledge of the bowel was more widespread, and people were taught how to care for the bowel. Somehow, bowel wisdom got lost and it became something that no one wanted to talk about anymore.”
Bowel cleansing was once a common procedure. Even the Lewis and Clark Expedition received instructions on enema use for fever or illness prevention. Previous generations embraced bowel cleansing as a standard approach to warding off illness.
Between 1880 and 1930, colon hydrotherapy gained immense popularity in the United States. However, it waned during WWII due to technological advancements and the surge of chemical-based solutions. The American Medical Association and orthodox medical community suppressed alternative therapies, including colon hydrotherapy, to favor their interests and drug treatments.
With modern advancements in colonic irrigation systems and disposable equipment, the trend is shifting back to natural health practices. Colon hydrotherapy is resurging as a valuable detoxification tool. Our Founder, a Board Certified Doctor of Natural Medicine and certified by the National Board of Colon Hydrotherapy (NBCT), holds the highest certification from the International Association of Colon Therapists (I-ACT).
The Reality: Why Colon Hydrotherapy Matters
While a wholesome diet, regular exercise, and toxin avoidance might seem adequate, our contemporary environment exposes us to various contaminants. From second-hand smoke and car emissions to pesticides, cleaning products, and antibiotics, these invisible intruders disrupt our body’s natural processes. Colon cleansing and detoxification through colonic irrigation offer benefits to everyone.
The Impact of Excess Toxic Waste
Leading medical and naturopathic authorities highlight the connection between excess toxins and prevalent ailments like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and numerous gastrointestinal issues. These toxins can infiltrate your bloodstream and deposit in cells, tissues, joints, organs, and more. The consequence is a decline in overall bodily function. Colon hydrotherapy acts as a preventive measure, promoting the elimination of toxins and potentially mitigating various diseases.
