QC Colon Hydrotherapy is an extension of Mandala Integrative Medicine and offers colon hydrotherapy.
WHAT IS COLON HYDROTHERAPY?
Colon Hydrotherapy is a gentle infusion of warm filtered water into the large intestines, using no chemicals or drugs. The warm water helps to soften, break up and then remove impacted and dehydrated, mucoid, parasitic and other waste materials that layer the intestinal wall. The client relaxes comfortably on a massage table as the therapist introduces a series of gentle infusions of filtered water into the colon, controlling the water temperature and pressure. As soon as the client experiences any urgency or fullness, the waste line is opened. The water, along with old fecal material, gas, mucus and toxins are released through the waste line and then through an illuminated viewing tube so that the amount and type of waste being eliminated can be thoroughly assessed. The waste is then flushed away through the sewer line into the septic tank.
The Goals of the treatment are:
• Hydrate the body
• Soften and remove hardened toxic fecal matter
• Stimulate and strengthen the nerves, muscles, glands, circulatory and immune components of the digestive system
• Stimulate peristalsis
• Cleanse the intestinal wall to allow better nutrient absorption.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions will depend on the individual needs of each client. Most people will need a series of 6 to 8 sessions fairly close together to receive a thorough cleansing of the colon. Then a monthly maintenance treatment is suggested to keep the colon cleaned and toned.
Is Colon Hydrotherapy safe?
It is completely safe. Sterile, disposable tubing and specula are used with each treatment to prevent client-to-client contamination. The water used has an extensive filtration system to filter out chemicals and contaminants. The water pressure and temperature are controlled at all times for the client’s complete comfort and safety.
Is it embarrassing or painful?
Your dignity is completely maintained with proper draping in a private room. Because a closed system is used, there is no offensive odour or mess to worry about. There may be minimal cramping or discomfort just before a release, as with any bowel movement. Most of the treatment is very relaxing. The therapist uses various abdominal massaging techniques and a clean, relaxing atmosphere to add to the client’s comfort and to help facilitate a more thorough cleansing.
How do I prepare for a treatment?
For the best cleansing, drink a lot of water and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables several days before your treatment. On the day of your treatment you may be more comfortable if you refrain from eating or drinking too many liquids for at least two hours before your scheduled appointment time.
