And, finally, the build-up to the walls of the intestine weaken muscle contraction, the sluggish decline is slowing the passage of food leads to constipation and, in the end – to the disorder of the gastrointestinal tract.
No. Just as we don’t eliminate bacteria from the mouth by drinking water, we don’t eliminate it from the colon when we flush the colon with water. During a colonic, we use purified water to hydrate, dissolve and transport solid waste and gas out of the body. It does not disrupt the mucosal membrane where the majority of beneficial bacteria colonize.
No. Since a colonic cleans out your colon, once your treatment has concluded, you may not need to go to the toilet for a day or so after your treatment. You can safely go about your business after your treatment without worrying about getting caught short.
Having a colonic can fit easily into your day without any disruption.
No. The procedure is generally not painful at all. In fact, many people find it to be a relaxing experience. A speculum is inserted into your rectum with lubricant for ease of insertion.

No. Colonics are a safe and gentle treatment when performed by a trained and certified therapist. We use filtered water and sterile and disposable equipment to ensure the utmost cleanliness and safety.
While it is true that the body has its own natural processes for eliminating waste, there are many factors that can disrupt this process, such as a poor diet, stress, and medication. Colonics can help to flush out any built-up waste and toxins in the colon, which can improve overall health and well-being.

The normal water enema only reaches rectum and lower part of the colon, while as hydrotherapy washed all colon (the length of which in adults is up to 2 meters). Colon irrigation is much more efficient than the usual enema. According to some studies “One wash is equivalent to 30 ordinary enemas.”
No. This time is quite convenient for the treatment. Your body is already doing its self-purification which makes colonic much more effective.
