Having a healthy colon is essential to maintaining total body health and Colon Hydrotherapy benefits the health of your colon.
Your large intestine which is called the colon, is a tubular organ approximately 5 to 5.5 feet long, which by involuntary muscle contractions forces waste material along its length. In a healthy colon these wave-like motions called peristalsis move digested food and waste material to the rectum for elimination.
The colon has the largest concentration of bacteria in your body which serves many important functions, including the synthesis of vitamin B and vitamin K, and folic acid. In a healthy colon environment trillions of bacteria such as Bacillus coli and Acidophilus out number disease-producing bacteria. But poor eating and lifestyle habits can upset this balance and lead one to have a stagnate colon, where bad bacteria can overpopulate your lower gastro-intestinal tract.
If this situation is allowed to persist for a long period of time you may start to experience the effects of a stagnant colon. Evidence of this condition can be frequent constipation or diahhrea, halitosis (bad breath), moderate to severe headaches (migraines), skin rashes and blemishes, persistent lower back pain, and general lack of energy.

This condition is more common than many realize because the typical American diet, comprised of processed, refined foods, including high levels of saturated fats, and low fiber diets can contribute to disorders of the whole digestive tract and particularly the colon. Digested food waste material remaining in the colon decomposes, frements and becomes stagnant, which changes the pH balance of the colon which provides a breeding ground for bad bacteria and toxic buildup.
If these toxins are not eliminated, they may concentrate and eventually be absorbed into the blood stream to effectuate disease symptoms elsewhere in the body. So the colon, instead of being a primary eliminator of waste, becomes a generator of toxic poisons which can cause a condition called autointoxication. Because blood circulates through every organ and cell in the body, accumulated toxins in the bowel can contaminate the entire body.
What are some of the common signs of Colon toxicity?
If you neglect proper eating and lifestyle habits long enough you may begin to experience some of these types of health conditions:
- Fatigue
- Arthritis
- Bad Breath
- Gas & Bloating
- Irritability
- Abdominal Discomfort
- Depression
- Frequent Headaches
- Migraines
- Skin Problems
- Allergies
- Constipation
- Poor Appetite
- Food Cravings
- Weight Gain
- Sagging Posture
- Pot Belly
- Severe Indigestion
To reverse these conditions we must properly cleanse the colon and surrounding bowel tissue. This can help relieve the toxic stress and thereby cleanse all the internal body systems. Cleansing your body systems and your colon can help restore your natural immune system, eliminate accumulated toxic waste, harmful bacteria and parasites overgrowth, and other dangerous organisms.
Colon Hydrotherapy can restore optimum health to your body by:
- Clearing the colon of impacted waste material and harmful toxins
- Restoring the proper pH balance
- Stimulating the immune system
- Facilitating nutrient absorption
- Increasing prevention of toxic absorption via healthy mucosa
- Providing a favorable environment for digestive bacteria and micro flora
- Strengthening natural muscular contraction in the colon
- Promoting a return of normal regular bowl movements
Maintaining overall general health is directly related to the health of your colon and colon hydrotherapy can be an invaluable tool to help reverse years of poor eating and lifestyle habits.
While many seek colon hydrotherapy to alleviate constipation, all the symptoms of colon ill health can benefited by this procedure. And after experiencing the life changing effects of irrigating their colon of toxic waste, many people integrate colon therapy as a regular preventative health treatment for life.
