Colonic Hydrotherapy
What is Colonic Hydrotherapy?
Colonic Hydrotherapy (previously Colonic Irrigation) is an alternative healing therapy that works by gently introducing warm water into the colon cavity to remove waste matter and toxins, rehydrate and exercise the large intestine; stimulating natural nerve and muscle action to encourage bowel function.
​
This treatment is a combination of gentle abdominal massage and cleansing, helping to soften stools, remove waste, and trapped gas from the colon which may have been accumulating over a long period of time.​​
​
Prevention is better than cure, so it is advised to continue regular treatments to keep everything running smoothly.
Want to achieve a deeper detox?
​​To help you achieve a deeper detox from your Colonic Hydrotherapy treatment, we recommend opting for a Lymphatic Drainage Massage before, or an Enema cleanse after.
​
An Enema focuses on cleansing the lower colon with a single infusion of filtered water, whereas a colonic flushes the entire colon with multiple infusions. We offer various Enema treatments, and can advise which would be most effective for you.
How often should you have Colonic Hydrotherapy treatments?
If it is your first treatment or you are looking to relieve specific symptoms such as constipation, we typically recommend a follow up 3 to 4 days after your initial appointment.​​​
​
However, frequency can vary depending on what symptoms you are hoping to relieve, we can advise you based on the treatment plan that will be most effective for you.
First Time & Symptom Relief
Regular treatments can be vital for gut and bowl preventative maintenance, and to help with detoxing. We recommend ongoing appointments every 3 to 4 months.

Preventative Maintenance
What are the benefits of Colonic Hydrotherapy?
Keeps your colon
healthy
Excess stool waste and gas can impair peristalsis and the colon function, causing it to become sluggish over time. A colonic treatment stimulates the colon wall muscle to keep it healthy and active.
Reduces the long term
impact of constipation
An outcome of chronic constipation can be that old, dehydrated matter sticks to the walls of the colon. Colonic Hydrotherapy softens debris, making removal more efficient and effective.
Returns your colon to
its natural shape
Frequent or prolonged episodes of constipation can cause the colon to become stretched. Colonic Hydrotherapy re-establishes the natural shape of the colon.
Full body detox
Colonics are a great way of detoxing the body as they encourage the liver and kidneys to cleanse themselves for a few days after a treatment, so very beneficial if you want to cleanse your body.
Increased energy levels
& wellbeing
To improve your overall wellbeing it is important to rebalance the connection between your brain and your gut axis. Colonic Hydrotherapy helps to re-establish the link, giving you increased energy levels and a positive impact on your overall wellbeing and health.
