Colon Hydrotherapy or Colonics, is a complememtary Therapy, which involves Cleansing the Colon with Warm, purified water by a Trained, Certified & Insured Professional.
By cleansing the Colon, we are able to open up detox pathways, which allow our Gut to restore microbiome balance, reduce toxic overload, and improve absorbtion & utilisation of vital nutrients, allowing for improved digestion and overall health.
Our Gut is responsible for Digestion & absorbion of vital nutrients. From there, the utilisation of those nutrients are distributed to different parts of the body where they are needed. Shortly after this, the eliminaton of toxic waste starts, and this step is vital in your Gut Heath. If we are not eliminating our waste from all of our bodily systems effectively, we get an overload of toxins, and this is where we start to see a decline in out Gut Health, Mental Health & Physical Health which all lead to greater risk of disease, infection, inflammation & parasites.
Whatever you feel relaxed in! Keep in mind, you will not be clothed from the waste down, so essentially, something comfortable & loose fitting is ideal.
During the session- one of our highly trained Colon Hydro-Therapist’s will be massaging the abdomen, paying very close attention to the Lymphatic Drainage Technique, which we specialise in.
This is one of our most common questions, and the truth is, there is no perfect number. Its a feeling. Depending on the reasons you are having a colonic, treatment will vary person to person. Only you will know when you have reached a happy place with your sessions. This may be 2 sessions, this may be 22, however your body & mind responds to teatment is how you should navigate the number of colonics you require. The only advice we like to give is to have however many colonics you choose as close together as possible. This is the most effective treatment plan, and as experienced professionals, this is truly when the magic happens.
This is the BEST part! You should feel amazing for the most part, lighter, more relaxed, clearer mind, softer tummy, restoration & regularity of bowel movements & less bloating is what we hear mostly. During this recovery period, we suggest eating “light, balanced” meals, that are gentle on the tummy as we have just put your body through a lot! We don’t want to aggravate any sensitivities. Processed foods, fried foods, alcohol & raw vegetables are not recommended for the 24hrs after your procedure.
There are some individuals that may experience some mild side effects, especially if this is your first colonic.
The body takes in alot of water during a colonic treatment and this can act as an agitator, especially if there is a build up of toxins and fecal matter, which can result in some uncomfortable side effects such as bloating, gas, mild cramping & lethargy.
If you are experiencing some adverse symptoms, it is super important you reach out to one of our therapists on 0448 128 429 to discuss.
These symptoms usually will subside over the next 24hrs.
Detoxing is not always easy, however, we really strive to make this process easier for you through education & guidance.
Lifelong gut health issues or even short term gut health issues do not instantly heal after 1 colonic. We can store up to 7ks of waste in our colon, so understandably this may take a few sessions to clear out.
It is important to allow your body time to heal. Eat well, focus on nourishing foods, avoid alcohol, rest & stay hydrated.
We are here to support you throughout your journey, & guide you through each step of the way, even after you leave our clinic.
