What is a Colon Hydrotherapy session like?
Over 90% of the time, clients who have come in for their first colonics have noted that it was not as bad as they first thought! Most clients find it to be a relaxing, comfortable experience. During a session mild cramping may be experienced, this is a sign of waste loosening up and getting ready to be expelled. Once a release happens this cramping goes away. Techniques are used to allow a small amount of water to flow into the colon, this gently stimulates the colon’s natural peristalsis to released the softened waste. This inflow of water and release of matter may be repeated several times during the colonic. Abdominal massage and deep breathing will be used to enhance your cleansing. You will be kept draped at all times and your dignity is always maintained.
