Colon hydrotherapy how does it feel

Colon hydrotherapy is the method of washing out impacted waste and gas from the large intestine with filtered water. Gravity Method Colonics is a system that relies on gravity for the flow of water rather than pressure. The focus in our session is on the out flow rather than the input of water. Our treatments take place in private, comfortable bathrooms. You will be lying down on a cushioned table with a drape cloth for your privacy.

The Gravity Centered Colonic method means water enters the intestine because the source is located above the level of your body, allowing the water to flow in and out without any mechanical means. The natural peristaltic motion of the colon is prompted once the water enters it. You will not need to push. Simply relax and the therapist will work with the rhythm of your body. The colon hydrotherapist is with you in the room throughout the entire session.

The therapist will utilize abdominal massage to assist the flow and momentum of the session. No, colonic hydrotherapy treatment should not hurt. As your body releases gas and matter you may feel cramping, but not pain. Depending on the fullness of your colon, some feel a bit more pressure because of the build up of gas in their body.

As you are relieved of gas and matter you begin to feel lighter and less pressure. You should feel a sense of rejuvenation, happiness, lightness, openness, and overall well-being. Increased sense of sight and smell is common. Lower back pain may be alleviated or relieved after one treatment. If you feel less than great IE: sluggish, sleepy, dizzy, headaches, etc. A follow-up session within one week is not too soon.

Yes, feel free to go about your day. If you are new to colonics, we suggest you schedule your first couple of sessions allowing plenty of time to stay present with how your body responds. Make sure your hydrotherapist is licensed this is a must. Also find out how many years of experience they have, and if they have a background in nutrition to ensure you're getting an expert on the service. Don't eat gassy foods like broccoli, beans, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and similar picks for 24 hours before your colonic.

Skip the booze yes, even if you want to calm your nerves for 24 hours before your appointment. After walking into the Core Club and being promptly ushered to the locker room, I changed into a cozy white terrycloth robe.

Then, I was brought into a dimly lit room to meet Birgit. In her endearing German accent, Birgit welcomed me and showed me to where things were about to go down. I received a packet of brochures — my reading homework — as Birgit explained the steps of the colonic and that she would be using infrared technology to help improve the procedure.

According to Birgit, the infrared "magic wand" helps to balance the nervous system and increase circulation. She runs a heated wand over your stomach and back in search of "hot spots," places on your body that feel warmer than others and can indicate that there is a fecal blockage in that area. During this process I sat on a comfy massage table coated with a soft sheet and pillow. You start by lying down on your stomach, as though you were getting a massage, while the heated wand glides across your back.

Eventually, you flip over so that your stomach can be examined by the "magic wand" as well. This process not only relaxes your colon but also alerts Birgit is there's a specific area that she should to work on. After applying her infrared tool, Brigit started massaging my belly with castor oil, a method invented by Edgar Cayce who was a famous healer from Virginia Beach.

Cayce used castor oil for many ailments and found that when applied to your stomach it penetrates deep inside your colon, helping to loosen up any impacted waste that might have been sitting there for years. As Birgit massaged my belly, she proclaimed, "You have a clump of old stuff sitting here. Now for the main attraction: the minute colonic according to Birgit anything shorter wouldn't be effective.

First, your robe is turned to the front so your booty is accessible. Before we got started, Birgit assured me that "the speculum that will be inserted is very small and they say it's the same one that is used for teenagers.

After the insertion Birgit asked me to turn my right foot around the tubing and lay on my back, kind of like a Pilates posture. With my hips up and my left foot up and down I finally got it and was lying down in a relaxed position ready for my cleansing.

Birgit turned on the colon hydrotherapy unit's pressure and warm filtered water started to flow into my colon, each flush of water lasting just a few seconds long. When thinking of having a colonic and wondering how you may feel after, always remember to not expect an accumulation of a lifetimes waste to be removed in one session it may take a few.

Give your body a break! Everybody is different and some clients find it takes maintenance sessions of colonics to feel more of the fantastic benefits.
