What Is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Colon hydrotherapy, sometimes called colonic irrigation or a colonic, is a process that uses warm, filtered water during a controlled session involving the large intestine.

People may also use terms such as colon cleanse or colon flush when searching for this type of service. At Natural HealthCare Services, the professional service offered is colon hydrotherapy.

Because colon hydrotherapy is not appropriate for everyone, your individual health history matters. Karen conducts a detailed case history before services are provided and discusses contraindications prior to a session.

What Happens During a Colon Hydrotherapy Session?

One of the most common questions we hear is simply: What is the appointment actually like?

Here is the process described by Natural HealthCare Services:

  1. Health History and Questions

    Before the session, Karen reviews your health history and discusses any relevant concerns or contraindications. This is also the time to ask questions about the procedure.

  2. Changing for the Session

    You will change into a hospital-style gown and get situated on the colon hydrotherapy table.

  3. Getting Into Position

    You will initially lie on your left side in a fetal position.

  4. Disposable Equipment

    The current Natural HealthCare Services procedure explains that the client inserts the disposable tube into the rectum. It connects to disposable tubing attached to the colon hydrotherapy unit.

  5. Warm, Filtered Water

    Warm, filtered water slowly flows into the colon through the system. Water is introduced in a controlled manner during the session.

  6. A Closed Process

    Natural HealthCare Services describes the system as designed so there is no direct contact with fecal matter and no associated odor during the process.

  7. After the Session

    When the session is complete, you use the restroom and may pass remaining water and fecal matter normally.

  8. Session Length

    A typical colon hydrotherapy session at Natural HealthCare Services generally lasts approximately 20 to 30 minutes.

Your Privacy and Comfort Matter

Colon hydrotherapy is a service that many people are curious about but may feel uncomfortable asking about.

There is no reason to be embarrassed about having questions.

The process is performed in a private setting, and Karen can explain the equipment and procedure before the session begins. The current system uses disposable components as described by Natural HealthCare Services, and the closed process is intended to minimize odor and direct contact with waste.

If something about the procedure is unclear, ask before the session begins. Understanding what will happen can make a first appointment much less intimidating.

Is Colon Hydrotherapy Right for Everyone?

No. Colon hydrotherapy is not appropriate for every person or every health situation.

Natural HealthCare Services states that there are contraindications to colon hydrotherapy. For that reason, Karen conducts a detailed case history for each client before services are provided and discusses relevant contraindications prior to the session.

If you have a medical condition, are receiving medical treatment, have had recent surgery, are pregnant, take prescription medications, or are uncertain whether colon hydrotherapy is appropriate for you, discuss your individual situation with an appropriate licensed healthcare professional before proceeding.

Colon hydrotherapy should not be used as a substitute for diagnosis or treatment of a medical condition. Persistent constipation, abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, unexplained weight loss or other concerning digestive symptoms should be evaluated by an appropriate medical professional.

How Should I Prepare for a Colon Hydrotherapy Appointment?

Natural HealthCare Services recommends avoiding heavy meals and excessive drinking immediately before your appointment and avoiding alcohol.

If you are severely constipated or have questions about preparation, contact Karen before your appointment rather than trying to create your own aggressive cleansing routine.

Preparation can vary depending on the individual, so ask if you are unsure what makes sense before your scheduled session.

What Does Colon Hydrotherapy Feel Like?

Everyone's experience is different.

Natural HealthCare Services notes that many clients describe the process as comfortable and may notice sensations of fullness or movement in the abdomen as water is introduced and released.

Some people may experience temporary cramping or pressure. If you are uncomfortable during the session, communicate with Karen so the situation can be addressed.

What Can I Expect After a Session?

After the colon hydrotherapy portion of the appointment is finished, you will use the restroom to pass remaining water and fecal matter.

Natural HealthCare Services states that clients can generally return to normal activities after the session, although bowel activity may be different for a period afterward.

Individual experiences vary. If you have concerns about how you feel following a session, contact the office or an appropriate healthcare professional depending on the nature of the concern.

Colon Hydrotherapy, Colon Flush and Colon Cleanse - What's the Difference?

People use several different terms when looking for this service online.

Colon hydrotherapy and colonic irrigation refer to the professional water-based procedure offered at Natural HealthCare Services. People may also search for a 'colon flush,' 'colonic' or 'colon cleanse' when they are looking for information about colon hydrotherapy.

If you are unsure whether the service you have heard about is the same service offered here, call us. We would rather explain the procedure and answer your questions than have you rely on conflicting information online.
