Although it is a common concern or assumption that Colonics deplete our good bacteria, the therapeutic use of Colonics is not shown to have a negative impact on our microbiome. Studies show that the beneficial bacteria lost in a typical session of colon hydrotherapy is minimal, and suggest that reasonable use of colon hydrotherapy can have a positive effect on the gut microbiome, by helping to remove excess waste and toxic matter. Excess waste matter feeds pathogens. However a clean and healthy colon offers an optimal environment for good bacteria to flourish. Colon hydrotherapy Remember, many people in our society have a deficiency in good bacteria, excess toxicity, and excess pathogens in their colon (fungus, parasites, bad bacteria)- this is known as “dysbiosis.” Therefore many Colon Hydrotherapists encourage this model of gut biome care: Cleanse- release excess waste and toxicity from digestive tract which in turn can replenish- with good nutrition including prebiotic foods, probiotic supplementation, good hydration, and herbs and supplements, as needed. To maintain health and wellness though good nutrition, hydration, probiotic foods and/or supplements, and seasonal cleansing.

Colon hydrotherapy can assist by hydrating the colon, helping remove trapped gas and blockages of waste, and promotes better bowel motility. Though in some cases of chronic constipation, such as gut motility issues or certain prescriptions may contribute to constipation. In these cases Colonics may not help change the nature of your condition, but can definitely help to manage the symptoms and prevent uncomfortable and cumulative build up of waste in the colon. One method for constipation is to be treated with a combination of Colonics and healthy lifestyle measures. Our Therapists are here to help guide you with suggestive recommendations to help support your colon cleansing process.

Colonics are recommended during parasite cleanses to help ensure the parasites or ‘die-off’ are eliminated from the body during the protocol. In most cases, parasites may be released from the body during a parasite cleanse involving herbs or medications, nutrition, and/or fasting, combined with colon cleansing.
