Importance of Hydrocolon Therapy
Hydrocolon Therapy improves hydration: the water absorbed during the session cleanses the tissues at the cellular level and removes toxins, stimulating their elimination through other excretory pathways, such as the skin, kidneys, liver, and lymphatic system. The alternating infusion of warm and cold water stimulates the relaxation and contraction of the colonic musculature, facilitating peristalsis and improving any colon atony, performing a real “intestinal reeducation,” useful in chronic constipation. It is of great help for pregnant women up to the fourth month of pregnancy and after childbirth. It is essential for its deep cleansing effect during therapeutic fasting, detoxification treatments, and diets, and it supports weight loss.
Preparation for Hydrocolon Therapy
The purification stimulus persists in the days following the treatment. For this reason, it is essential that the patient arrives prepared for the hydrocolon therapy cycle, first undergoing a thorough medical examination where an appropriate pre-treatment diet is set, and herbal or homoeopathic remedies are recommended to stimulate the improvement of liver and kidney functions, the organs that will support toxin elimination. Without careful preparation, if the body is already stressed and struggles to eliminate toxins – the reason for the appearance of physical problems – there is a risk during the sessions of stirring up too many toxins that are not effectively eliminated and, therefore, will be deposited elsewhere in the body. This can cause problems at a later stage, which is crucial to keep in mind, especially in the case of chronic or serious illnesses.
Targeted treatment for common pathologies
Hydrocolon therapy is extraordinarily useful in various common pathologies today. Much more effective than a simple enema, it entirely cleanses the colon, allowing the mobilisation of faecal matter that stagnates in the intestinal villi, even for several years, taking on a consistency similar to that of tire rubber due to prolonged stagnation, becoming a source of internal intoxication. Prolonged and repeated irrigation allows for their softening and subsequent elimination with significant benefits, leading to the complete disappearance of many disturbances. It is more effective than an enema because the entire colon is treated.
Experience the benefits
Hydrocolon therapy improves the response to dietary, homoeopathic, and herbal therapies and enhances nutrient absorption, often reflected in the disappearance of nutritional deficiencies. All organs receive significant assistance from intestinal washing: the blood becomes cleaner and oxygenated, benefiting the entire body!!
Procedure
But what exactly does it consist of? The intestine is cleaned gently and painlessly without using medicines or chemicals. The person lies comfortably on the bed. A small cannula is inserted at the rectal level, and water starts to flow into the intestine. The cannula has two tubes, one for water intake and the other for removing faecal material and used water. The operator performs successive irrigations at pre-set and stable temperature and pressure. During the session, these parameters (pressure and temperature) can be adjusted to achieve a better effect and personalise the therapy.
