Colon Hydrotherapy, also known as colon cleansing, a colonic, or colonic irrigation is a procedure in which large amounts of water are flushed through the colon in order to support detoxification, boost energy, relieve abdominal pain and support the immune system. It can regenerate parts of the large intestine by flushing out harmful bacteria and yeast fungi. This can have a healing effect on the overall digestive tract.
Our digestive tract is responsible to absorb nutrients from foods we consume. In addition, our digestive tract comprises a large amount of our immune system as the intestinal immune system encounters more antigen than any other part of the body by the antigenic load of our diet and the constant threat of potential pathogens.
The intestinal flora is also known as our second immune system. This population of organisms is often referred to as the microbiota or microbiome. A properly functioning digestive system can not only contribute to an improved nutrient absorption, but also enhance the bacterial symbiosis of the gut.
If you suffer from one of the following conditions, you may benefit from colon hydrotherapy:
Being an essentially natural and gentle process, there is virtually no danger with a colonic treatment. The treatment is always accompanied by a trained specialist. There may be initial discomfort due to the pressure and occasional cramping of the intestinal muscles, but this all is kept to a minimum and will reside once you get used to the process. Many patients report about a very pleasant experience after an initial adjustment phase.
There may occur a slight delay in bowel movements followed by a somewhat larger, easier to move bowl movement. Sometimes there may be no bowel movement for some days following a colonic. However, this is quite normal. Diarrhea or loose bowels may be experienced very rarely. This usually only last a couple of days.
Constipation may successfully be treated with the use of colonics. Additional factors like diet, exercise and emotional well-being may also play a role. The process of colon-hydro therapy may aid in cleansing and healing the colon so that changes in diet, exercise, and environment may be easier. Many people find the relief provided by colonics inspires motivation and enthusiasm to institute positive changes in their lifestyle. EVO uses an integrative approach to improve gut health which may also involve nutritional recommendations, lymphatic drainage and supplementation.
The important bowel bacteria are present on the bowel wall and are not removed during Colonic Irrigation treatment, thus leaving a large nucleus to grow naturally. Good microbiota can only breed in a balanced environment. Also, valuable nutrients may be better absorbed in a clean environment than in a putrefied one.
Studies suggest that colon irrigation might induce lymphocyte transmigration from gut-associated lymphatic tissues into the circulation, which may improve colon and immune system function. Colon-hydro therapy is not a cure-all but may present a beneficial and effective adjuvant therapy in the overall health care of a patient.
Your skin is your largest organ and an important organ of elimination of metabolic waste and toxins. Sometimes, if the colon, liver or kidneys are in a suboptimal state, the skin will suffer. As toxins and metabolic waste are eliminated through its proper channels again, the skin will very often clear up.
