Anything that can naturally help to have a healthier colon that functions better can be beneficial to our health.
Poor eating habits, the use of preservatives, dyes, the overuse of medicine and laxatives, stress, the lack of exercise and so on produce an imbalance that affects our digestive system and causes an imbalance in the intestinal flora and the immunological system.
Colon Hydrotherapy is a comfortable, clean, odourless and highly effective health treatment consisting in an in-depth cleaning of the large intestine by flushing filtered and purified water to purge one of the areas of our organism that accumulates the most waste, directly reducing built-up toxins and releasing pressure in the abdominal área.
No prior preparation or treatment is necessary, and it has no undesirable effects.
The session lasts approximately 45 minutes. A completely normal lifestyle can be led immediately following the Colon Hydrotherapy, attending to any social commitment.
Waste not eliminated through regular evacuation tends to build up in the creases of the colon in both individuals with normal intestinal function and those who suffer from constipation.
This waste is fermented by the intestinal flora, producing gasses and toxins. When these toxins stay in contact with the colon for a certain period of time, they are reabsorbed and pass into the organism. It is because of this that even though the Colon is an organ that is constantly in contact with waste, what we achieve with Colon Hydrotherapy is the elimination of the oldest remains adhered to the colonic walls and creases.
Multiple alterations and diseases are related to the excessive accumulation of fermented toxins and their re-absorption through the colon. Dermatological pathologies, migraines, flatulence, abdominal discomfort, muscle pains–especially in the lumbar region–stress, etc.
The indications for Colon Hydrotherapy are diverse. But like all health treatments there are also some contraindications; in other words, situations where this treatment should not applied.
Colon Hydrotherapy is supervised by the Digestive System Service at ServiDigest, member of the National and International Association for the study and dissemination of Colon Hydrotherapy.
