Colonic Irrigation
Colonic irrigation uses gentle infusion of water into the colon to loosen and remove colon debris. The colon is a passageway for waste in the body. The colon also acts to absorb nutrients as food passes through. Improper diet along with other factors can cause the colon walls to become filled with particles, debris, bacteria, parasites and mucous. This debris inhibits the proper passage of waste products out of the system and inhibits the proper absorption of nutrients.
When waste products stay in the system for too long it can cause additional problems as the body is now absorbing the toxins that have not yet left the body. This can cause disease and general health problems.
Colonic irrigation helps to cleanse the colon to rid it of the built up toxins, mucous and debris. Colonic irrigation is uses a solution of warm water that is infused into the colon through the rectum. The procedure is done in the doctor's office.
During colonic irrigation the patient lies on a table that is made for this purpose. The instrument is inserted and then warm water is gently passed into the colon. The procedure is done by a doctor or by a trained colon hydrotherapist. The doctor will then use gentle massage techniques to help dislodge debris that may be stuck to the walls of the colon. All the water leaves the colon through a special system disposal hose.
It is important to have this treatment performed by a qualified person. He or she can reduce or increase the water pressure during the procedure. They are trained to know when a colon has particular waste build-up and can use certain techniques to help cleanse it.
Typically colonic irrigation is done in a series of several sessions. Each session lasts from between 30 minutes to an hour. The procedure is safe for most individuals and can help to clean out a colon with years of built up matter. The procedure is done in the office and does not require any special care.
Colonic irrigation patients report feeling generally better after having the procedure done. They often have much easier eliminations. After a colonic you may want to take some nutrients or probiotics to help the system regain its optimal function. Probiotics can help the colon replace good bacteria that were lost in the process. Nutrients may also have been flushed away and may need to be replaced temporarily. Follow the instructions carefully when you leave the facility.
After having a colonic irrigation you should try to eat a more colon friendly diet. This will help the colon to stay clean and functioning well. A good diet includes plenty of fiber including fresh fruits and vegetables and plenty of water. Avoid foods that are over-processed and those that contain chemical additives or preservatives.
