Colon Hydrotherapy

Health begins on the inside

Colon hydrotherapy is one way to assist the body to expel waste it has forgotten how to eliminate.

With our busy lives, we eat fast, rush on, and ignore our digestive processes. Add to this a lack of appropriate exercise, poor nutrition, stress, overeating, and ignoring or prolonging our body's call to eliminate.

The colon or large intestine is our garbage and recycling centre. When we forget to care for it, or it is overloaded, rubbish and waste back up and our whole system can slow down. Constipation, diarrhoea, lethargy, and bloating are indicators of improper functioning of the bowel.

Do you suffer from any the following?

• sluggishness, fatigue or tiredness
• bloatedness or digestive disorders
• ‘toxic’ feelings in the body
• skin conditions, eg. rashes, psoriasis
• constipation or irregular bowel movements

With improved colon care you can achieve:

• higher levels of energy and alertness
• rebalancing of digestive conditions
• healthier skin and hair
• improved regularity of bowel movements

Colon Hydrotherapy can help to cleanse, hydrate and strengthen your colon. In turn, this assists with proper functioning and better overall health.

What does the colon do?

The colon is a place where solid waste is broken down by intestinal flora and fauna. It is a place for major mineral absorption, and where significant amounts of water are taken up to keep our bodies hydrated. Food is passed through the colon by muscle contraction called peristalsis. This involuntary muscle action is stimulated by chewing, and in response to food in your stomach.

What happens if the colon gets clogged?

Once the colon turns sluggish, or has spasms, movement of waste can slow, and a lining of rotting material can build up. In time, this material becomes impacted. Mould and fungus can grow in the lining releasing toxins that our bodies absorb. Once the waste system breaks down, the body needs to find other ways to get rid of toxin and waste. The next best places are the liver, the skin, and the lungs. That is why skin disorders, bad breath, and other organ disorders have been reduced once the colon undergoes cleansing, strengthening, and hydrating.

How does Colon Hydrotherapy work?

Colon hydrotherapy does three things. It cleanses impacted material, strengthens the colon by reawakening peristalsis, and hydrates the body.

Colon hydrotherapy is not an enema. An enema fills and cleanses the lowest part of the alimentary canal near the anus. A professionally qualified colon hydrotherapist uses specialised equipment to gently fill the colon with temperature-controlled filtered water and then let it drain under gravity. A small tube is inserted into the anus, and the colon is filled and released several times during the session.

The system is hygienic, totally sealed, and the therapist is with you throughout the treatment.

At times during the treatment, the therapist will massage your abdominal region to encourage better elimination.

How many times do I need treatment?

During an initial interview we record relevant medical history, and make an assessment for the course of treatment. For most people, it is common to have a minimum of three sessions over a period of a week or two to begin.

Testimonials

"I have gone through a program of 5 'Colonics' suggested by my Naturopath. Although the thought of a colonic was initially out of my comfort zone, Tina made me feel very relaxed and the sessions were very informative about the colon, as well as your body generally. Of course since my first colonic I have come to realise it's been a brilliant cleansing system for me and wouldn't hesitate to have another if it was required. Thank heavens you are here to carry it out. Tina has been brilliant."

Anon, ACT

"The feelings after a colonic treatment are of peace and tranquility both in body and mind. My symptoms due to irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulitis just disappear. Both Margo and Tina make me feel comfortable about each process of the treatment, including what is happening on the screen in front of you. It is also a time of learning fro each other, as we chat about our bodies, their functions and our experience. I recommend the Center of Wellbeing and Awareness"

Rae, ACT.

"I know with my lifestyle it is sometimes hard going for my body. Too much rush eating incorrectly, I treat myself to an annual series of Colonique treatments whereupon I feel lighter and healthier. I can feel my body say "aah, thankyou that’s better". Margo and Tina conduct the treatments in a safe, private and respectful way.

Margo’s Center of Wellbeing and Awareness is a hub of mind, body and spirit health. The studio has a great energy."
