Download Fact Sheet

 Â Washing out putrefied matter and harmful bacteria in the large intestine can only help to increase the production
of good intestinal bacteria. When a bowel is “clogged” it is often overrun with toxins and bad bacteria, good
bacteria can only “breathe” and multiply in a clean environment. Cleaning the bowel helps the glands that
produce good bacteria work efficiently.
Is it embarrassing to get a colonic?
Not at all. You are in a private room with only your therapist who will guide you through the procedure. Your
therapist fully appreciates the sensitivity of the colonic procedure and your personal dignity is maintained at all
times and your emotions acknowledged and honored.
Is there any special preparation prior to a colonic session?
You are not required to fast before a colonic. Meals should be light on the day of your session, as you want the
body to focus on eliminating rather than assimilating. At least a litre per day of water in the days leading up to
your session & eating plenty of salads and fresh vegetables, eliminating processed foods & heavy
carbohydrates helps for a good colonic.
Can you explain the colonic procedure?
On your first visit, you will be asked complete a health history form. Your therapist will then take you into the
private colonic suite. Here, she will explain the procedure and answer any questions you may have.
Prior to the procedure, your therapist will direct your into your own private ensuite and ask you to empty your
bladder. You will then change into a gown and enter the treatment room. Your therapist will ask guide you onto
the treatment bed, cover you with a towel, and ask you to roll onto your left side. Your therapist will gently insert
a small disposable speculum into your rectum, this is then connected to a disposable water and disposable
waste line. Your therapist will then ask you to roll onto your back for the procedure.(this information is for the
closed colonic system).
What will I feel?
The normal sensation to feel is a gentle arising and subsiding of the abdomen as the water goes into the body to
soften, soak and dislodge hardened and trapped deposits, and is then expelled together with the wastes. Your
therapist will combine the treatment with gentle abdominal massage to facilitate the release process.
Is a colonic uncomfortable?
Usually uncomfortable experiences result from resistance and tension within the bowel. When bowel problems
already exist cramps are sometimes the “normal” at home but it actually shows how unwell the bowel is. Your
colonic therapist is skilled at putting you at ease and minimizing discomfort; most people are relaxed with the
colonic and pleased with the unaccustomed sensation of feeling lighter, clean and clearer afterwards.
