What is Colon Irrigation?
Colonic irrigation is a type of complementary medicine that uses filtered warm water to cleanse the colon in a gentle, painless and effective manner. A speculum will be inserted into your anus by the colon therapist, allowing a thin tube to be passed into your rectum. Warm water then passes through this tube and into the rectum, where it enters the colon. This procedure eliminates any faeces, mucus and toxins that have accumulated in your colon over time.
What are the Benefits of Colon Irrigation?
Many of the benefits of colon cleansing are believed to be due to reducing bowel and toxin build-up. The more toxins that are accumulated in your body, the higher the possibility of diseases, such as cancer, occurring. Colon irrigation helps to clear out the colon, which reduces the risk of colon cancer, supports weight loss, improves skin clarity and addresses a host of other health issues, including:
- Constipation
