It’s simply a technique used to clean the colon, which is beneficial for the whole body.  A colonic involves the gentle introduction of purified water into the colon under low pressure & a controlled temperature which allows an in depth removal of waste, mucus & gases which in turn helps the colon to absorb nutrients more efficiently.

​

WHAT IS THE COLON ?

 

The colon is one organ of our digestive system & within its walls are muscles, these muscles mix food & liquid as well as moving it.  This movement is called peristalsis & also occurs in the oesophagus, stomach & small intestines. It is a wave like motion.  As well as playing a major part in getting rid of bodily waste it also protects the body from infection and disease.  It also plays a part in the synthesis of certain vitamins & absorption of nutrients , electrolytes & water therefore a clean colon wall will work more efficiently.

 

The colon is the body’s sewage system & if toxins are not removed the result can be whats known as “auto-intoxication” .  The waste materials can be reabsorbed into the blood stream and redistribute around the whole body, collecting in organs in all areas.  If someone lives an unhealthy lifestyle the body can become overwhelmed by toxicity & can contribute to the following conditions:

 

• Arthritis

• Migraines

• Skin problems

• Heart diseases

• Stomach diseases & complaints

• Constipation

 

If the colon is not looked after it can become a cesspool & allow toxins to enter the blood which in turn can poison the brain, & nervous system, creating depression & becoming generally irritated.  Listed below is are consequences of poisoning the various organs:

 

Heart - weak & listless

Lungs - bad breath

Digestive organs - bloating & general discomfort

Blood - unhealthy looking sallow skin tone

Joints - stiff & painful
