Colon Irrigation Treatment 101

So what exactly is a colon irrigation treatment? When we hear the term colon cleansing, we usually think of taking a pill or altering a diet. A rush of water through our systems isn’t always the first thing that comes to mind. But irrigation, also known as colonic hydrotherapy, can be a beneficial way to cleanse the colon if faster results are desired.

The colon performs at a less than optimal state due to poor eating habits, emotional pressures and life in general. Sitting behind a computer screen all day, filling our bodies with caffeine and then coming home to sit on the couch until bed time is no way to keep the body healthy, and sometimes a little help is necessary. When the toxic waste builds up inside the colon, there is mucus that forms in the intestinal tracts. This can include worms and parasites that can cause problems within the blood, organ and lymph systems.

The colon irrigation procedure includes a massage of the abdomen as the material is released through your colon, using a two-inch tube that is inserted and pushes filtered water through your body. Some pressure will be felt, but it is not described as painful but only slightly uncomfortable, a feeling that will only last for a few seconds. A highly potent wash is generally administered at the end of the procedure to get rid of any unwanted matter.

Having a colon irrigation treatment is normal, and it doesn’t take long to recover from one—some people have them done their lunch hours and return to work a normal day. Follow-up sessions are recommended after the first session, and can be done one to two weeks later.
