Colon Therapy

James Moyog
Colon therapy includes colonic irrigation, high colonic, detoxification therapy, colon hydrotherapy, coffee enemas, enema irrigation, hydro-colon therapy, high enema. It refers to the processes of cleansing the colon with the use of water, herbal solutions, enzymes, or other substances such as coffee. The main motive of this therapy is to clean the colon by removing the accumulated wastes and toxins. This has been practiced for centuries because it is believed that detoxification of the body leads to a healthy body and healthy life. All sicknesses are believed to rise from the colon. Colon therapy is a preventive measure and also a healing treatment.

Scientists argue that cleansing of the colon is not necessary and that the colon has the ability to cleanse itself. But the growing number of colon cancer has made people go for colon therapy more than before. There are many colon therapy clinics all over the world and doctors and other attendants are getting trained in huge numbers realizing the prospect in the field.

This therapy must be done after consulting with a doctor. The therapy must be performed by a colonic hygienist or therapist who is qualified and certified without colon cleansing product. A tube is inserted in the rectum and into the colon. The rubber tube is attached to a machine which sends liquid into the colon. The quantity of the liquid may be up to 20 gallons. After filling the colon, the therapist gently rubs the abdomen to facilitate the removal of the water and the wastes through another pipe. The procedure will be completed within one hour and in the mean time the patient will feel some discomfort in the abdomen.


We can choose from any alternative colon therapy according to its affordability and the advice of the therapist. Colon therapy is believed to prevent many diseases and help the bowel movement but no such assurance has been given by the doctors who are clearly against such procedures for colon cleanse. They hold that the colon knows how to protect itself and such methods only harm the colon ad does nothing to improve. In order to know the colon well and how to keep it safe, a look at the colon therapy chart is very important. It has been designed especially to educate the laymen about the colon and its functions. No doubt it is important to clean the colon but the best way to do so will be to maintain a good diet and a healthy lifestyle.
