Colon Therapy
Colon therapy is a type of therapy that actually has a lot
of different names. A lot of people call it colon irrigation,
and others call it colon hydrotherapy. Other names include
enema irrigation and/or coffee enemas. Although, they are
all done the same way, and that is with water or another liquid
substance. So what is colon therapy, and what does it
do? Pretty much, colon therapy is where they take gallons
of water and they move it through your colon. This is done
with a special machine. However, even though this is used
the most, it is not the only thing that is used. Other solutions
and substances (like coffee) are sometimes passed though the
colon as well. Either way you look at it, it's the clearing
of the intestines (or the colon) to get rid of the stuff that
is stuck in there.
For the most part, there is no scientific evidence that support
that this kind of therapy can treat cancer. However, it can
help to keep the colon clean. There are some side effects
that can go with colon therapy. In fact, one of the most common
is infection, which can lead to death. Although there are
alternative colon therapy options out there, most people like
the colon hydrotherapy. It is pretty much considered nothing
more than a detoxification method to remove the accumulated
waste from your colon. These are usually the kinds of things
that you would worry about as you get older. People who get
old usually lose the digestive enzymes in their stomach. This
causes things that should not get through to get to the colon.
Whenever you use colon therapy you are going to be given
a colon therapy chart. Although this can mean many things,
usually a colon therapy chart is the chart that is used to
keep up with colon therapy. So pretty much, this leaves one
question left and that is, how is it done? What happens is
a plastic tube is inserted into your rectum and into the colon
area. The machine at that point is going to send large amounts
of water (or liquid into your intestines). They normally do
up to 20 gallons of water. Of course, if you are just cleaning
the rectum, then they use about a quart of fluid. After the
colon is full of water, the therapist is going to massage
the abdomen. This is going to help remove all of the waste
that is stuck on the colon walls. After that, the water and
the waste are going to be carried out through a different
tube. Most of the time, this is done a few times. Colon therapy
usually takes about an hour to do. After it is all removed,
you are going to notice a difference in the way that you feel.
You are also going to notice that you have also decreased
in weight. After all, the junk you had been carrying around
is all gone. Some people support colon therapy, and
some do not. You should talk to your doctor to see if it is
right for you or not. |
