As a result the client may experience nausea, flu-like body aches, headache, fever, dizziness, water retention, lethargy, aching joints and depression.

    o Experiencing a stomachache implies that the body was toxic and overloaded, so the colonic helps to rid the colon of impurities.

    Chron’s disease, ulcerative colitis or ischemic.


  • • Will I be able to release urine during my session?

    o Yes, you can.  During the session a tube carries the water to the colon and will eliminate any fecal matter around the tube. Since you are already releasing there is no need to stop the session in order to urinate.

  • • Will it hurt?

    o During the session you may feel no pain or minor discomfort.  Laxatives or enemas can put stress on the body and irritate your stomach however these side effects are not often reported. 

  • • How much weight can I lose?

    o Hydrotherapy can assist with your loss of weight because it flushes fecal matter from the colon.  The average person’s colon can hold anywhere from 8 to 25 lbs. of unwanted material.  A cleanse is a great way to start fresh! Following your sessions, you should eat higher quality foods that are high in fiber to encourage healthy digestion. 

  • • How many sessions are recommended?

    Personally, after reading many books written by medical Doctors that have done research in this area, I agree with their recommendation, a series of twelve over ten weeks is necessary. Two the first week (one today, one tomorrow) two the second week, and one a week for the next eight weeks. The reason for that is the human body is exceptionally smart. When we clean out the colon, the body starts pulling waste out of the tissue and putting them into the blood stream. The waste heads for the liver, then back to the colon. Therefore, the second session on the second day is necessary so that the digested waste is eliminated rather than reabsorbed. The same reason applies to the following two the second week. After the first four, I then recommend one a week for eight weeks. This slows detoxification to a gentler more tolerable rate.
