Colon Hydrotherapy Rates & Packages | FAQs

"Colon hydrotherapy, is a safe, effective method of removing waste from the large intestine, without the use of drugs. By introducing filtered and temperature regulated water into the colon, the waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through natural peristalsis. This process is repeated a few times during a session.

Colon hydrotherapy is best used in combination with adequate nutrient and fluid intake as well as exercise. Today's sophisticated technology promotes both the safety and sanitation of this popular cleansing practice." (as defined by the International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy).

The equipment we use  is a “closed system” colonic irrigation device. A closed system is described as one that allows water to enter the colon through a disposable plastic tube and waste material to exit through a larger tube, from there it flows through an observation tube and into the drainage system. The water temperature and pressure are controlled by a therapist guided by gauges on the instrument. The regulation of the temperature and pressure can be customized to the patient's comfort. There is no open evacuation and no offensive odors. The patient is fully draped, their dignity is respected at all times. This system is FDA approved.

What type of equipment is used for the colon hydrotherapy session?

I use the DoTolo Toxogen System. It is connected directly to the sewage system. See photo below.

How many colonics will I need?

If you have never had a colonic before, or if it has been a long time since you last had one, you will get the most out of it by doing a series of 3 in a one week or 10 day period. Depending on your individual situation and health goals, you may need more sessions. You will want to space the initial 3 sessions 2-5 days apart. The goal is to clean the whole colon. It is rare that this is achieved in a single session. If you look at the colon picture above the colon is highlighted in light blue. It is approximately 5.5 feet in length in most people.

Can I go to work after a colonic?

Yes, you will be fine to go about your day after the colonic session without any problems.

Can I do a colonic if I have my period?

Yes. At the time of your menstrual period, your body is already in a mode of cleansing. There is a large absorbent pad underneath you during the session also.

Do I need to do anything to prepare for a colonic?

In general, drink a lot of water and/or herbal teas in the days before your session. Do not eat or drink 2 hours before your session.

The following guidelines are very helpful as well.

24 Hours before your session, it is a good idea to:
* Eat light natural foods such as fruits, vegetables and grains.
* Drink plenty of water and/or herbal teas.
* Avoid gas producing foods (broccoli, carbonated drinks, white wine, and anything that gives you gas).

The day of your session:
* Don't eat or drink anything 2 hours before the session.
* It is a good idea to avoid alcohol, caffeinated tea & coffee, carbonated drinks, chocolate, processed & junk foods, dairy products, sugar.
* Have a light healthy lunch.

How long does a session take?

The actual session is 30-45 minutes. You will spend some time in the bathroom afterwards, so give yourself an hour.  At the first session, you will have some paperwork to fill out when you arrive so come 15-20 minutes early.

Can I eat after my colonic?

Yes. Healthy choices such as soups, salads, fresh fruits, broth or juices will feel best.

Are the materials used sanitary?

Yes. We use disposable speculums and tubing. Each prepackaged kit is only used once and then disposed of.

Does it hurt?

No, it does not hurt. You may feel some strange sensations like feeling like you need to have a bowel movement or like pressure building up and then being released. If you have gas, there may be some slight cramping.

 Is it embarrassing?

Not at all! During the session you are lying on your back or side and you are covered with a gown.

Do colonics remove the good bacteria from the colon?

In addition to the removal of old waste material, some of the friendly (probiotic) bacteria is removed from the colon during a colonic. However, the friendly bacteria grows back. A healthy colon has about 80% good bacteria and 20% "bad" (yeasts, E.coli, etc) bacteria. Most people have more "bad" bacteria than they should because of the over consumption of certain types of foods (including sugars and refined/processed foods) in the diet and certain conditions in the colon that make it a favorable place for bad bacteria to overgrow. A probiotic supplement should be taken after colonic to help the good bacteria proliferate. Incidentally, every time you take a shower or bath, you are removing "good" bacteria from the skin which also replenishes itself.

Who is getting colon hydrotherapy?

Everyone!  There are people of all walks of life that get colonics.

What are contraindications for colon hydrotherapy?

You should not have colon hydrotherapy if you have any of the following: Severe Cardiac Disease, Aneurysm, Severe Anemia, Ulcerative colitis (not a contraindication if a physician approves colon hydrotherapy), Crohn's Disease (not a contraindication if a physician approves colon hydrotherapy), Cirrhosis, Fissures, Fistulas, Advanced Pregnancy, Abdominal Hernia, Recent Colon Surgery, Renal Insufficiency

What causes constipation?

Some of the main causes of constipation are sedentary lifestyle, lack of exercise, insufficient water intake, eating too many processed foods and not enough fiber, constant worry and frustration as well as many others.
