Hydrotherapy
Colon Hydrotherapy is the practice of safe and gentle infusion of water into the large intestine to improve muscle tone and cleanse the colon. At Studio Australia this is done via gravity in the presence of a professionally trained Colon Hydrotherapist.
REASONS TO LOOK AFTER YOUR COLON
1. The gastrointestinal tract contains a large portion of the immune system, which is there to prevent harmful substances from entering the body.
2. Immune activity leads to inflammation and swelling as the result of plasma proteins moving into tissue spaces. Swelling increases intestinal permeability (leaky gut syndrome), which increases the opportunity for harmful substances like neurotoxins and microbes to enter the body.
3. Friendly bowel flora (commensal microbes) form part of the natural microflora of the digestive tract where they compete for space, nutrients and adherence with harmful bacteria.
Inflammation, intestinal permeability and disruption of intestinal microflora are linked with mood disorders like depression, panic attacks, anxiety, ADD, arthritis, allergies, eczema and asthma.
The digestive tract runs through the middle of our body and separates what is outside of us from what is inside of us - just like the skin. The small and large intestine allows in to our body nutrients from the food we eat that are essential to good health, whilst resisting the entry of harmful substances which if allowed in, can have far reaching consequences. Diet, nutrition and cleansing are key to maintaining a healthy digestive tract and lowering the likelihood of developing serious health problems as well as addressing problems that already exist. Colon hydrotherapy helps to clear harmful material from the colon, the last section of the digestive tract, that could damage the defensive barrier of the colon or enter the body if the defensive barrier is already damaged.
7 things you want to know about Colon Hydrotherapy but never dared ask
The colon is a tube of muscle which needs to be toned to stay in shape just like the muscles of your arms, legs, back... Colon hydrotherapy is a hydro-gym session for the colon to get back in shape. In time a poorly toned colon leads to constipation, trapped wind (bloating) and related problems, headaches, tiredness, poor skin, weight gain...
(fasting, cleansing..) it is advantageous and more comfortable to clear the colon (a major organ of elimination) with colon hydrotherapy to reduce / avoid typical symptoms of detoxification, headaches, tiredness, aches and pains...
For the most part the treatment is without sensation but it can have its moments when it feels like you have an upset tummy / indigestion. IT IS NOT PAINFUL but can be uncomfortable for moments during the treatment. And the feeling of emptiness and lightness that comes afterward the treatment is surely worth the occasional discomfort during it.
Your modesty is maintained at all times and apart from the introduction of a small nozzle you remain fully covered throughout the treatment to the point where you may even forget what treatment you are having!!
Colon hydrotherapy is a closed system (as opposed to an enema, which is an open system). That means that water enters the colon via a tube as well as leaves it by a (different) tube which ensures there is no mess, smell or noise.
Choose a quiet time in your social calendar as it is a precautionary measure to avoid alcohol for 24 hours before and after the treatment. Also having a night in after the treatment will give you time to enjoy the sensation of emptiness and not fill up on restaurant food.
These are clearly stated on the pre-treatment questionnaire. Anyone who has, had recent abdominal surgery, inflammatory conditions of the intestine, unregulated heart / kidney disease or is pregnant (O.K. in the second trimester) is not advised to have colon hydrotherapy.
