Colonic
Cleansing: Taking Care of the Colon with Water Therapy
You may have heard the old expression, “Death begins
in the colon.” This expression comes from the belief
that the colon needs ongoing maintenance to function properly
and protect the body from disease. A major part of colon
detox and maintenance is colonic cleansing.
Colonic
cleansing is also known by other terms such as colonic,
colon hydrotherapy, and colonic irrigation. As these names
imply, colonic cleansing is a method of injecting temperate,
filtered water into the colon to soften and loosen waste.
Waste in the colon is then removed by natural movement of
the bowels. During a colonic cleansing session, the process
of introducing water into the colon might be repeated a
few times.
Historical
evidence indicates that colonic cleansing was practiced
by the Egyptians as early as 1700 B.C. In more recent times,
colonic cleansing gained recognition in the 17th century.
By the early 1900’s, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (a founder
of the Kellogg cereal empire) said he believed colonic cleansing
was beneficial in the treatment of gastrointestinal disease.
From that time to today, colonic cleansing has become a
modernized procedure and remains a popular alternative therapy
to promote colon health.
The
typical colonic cleansing session lasts about an hour. Many
medical instruments used during a colonic cleansing are
disposable, and the entire procedure is completed in a sterile
environment. During the session, the patient lies face-up
on a table. The therapist inserts a medical instrument called
a speculum into the colon. The instrument is connected to
a long, disposable plastic hose which leads to the colonic
cleansing machine. To carry out the colonic cleansing, warm
water is slowly released into the colon. The warm water
causes the colon’s muscles to contract and expel softened
waste, which is evacuated through the tube. After the colonic
cleansing, the patient is able to go into a bathroom to
expel any residual waste. A colonic cleansing session may
cause some mild abdominal discomfort during and after the
procedure.
People
say they get a colonic cleansing for a variety of different
reasons. Some advocates report that colonic cleansing has
enabled them to stop using pain medication; others claim
colonic cleansing slows down the aging process. Still more
reasons for a colonic cleansing may be to help or prevent
chronic constipation,
prevent harmful bacteria and yeast from growing in the colon,
and to prevent the body from absorbing stagnant toxins from
the colon.
Colonic
cleansing may be a good way to clean the colon occasionally,
but it’s not healthy or convenient to rely on a colonic
cleansing to clean your colon on a daily basis. An easier
and safer way to clean the colon is with regular use of
