Colon cleansing has been around for many years. Countless medical practitioners recommend the procedure for their patients because of its wonderful benefits. During a colonic, several gallons of water are used to flush the colon. In addition, herbs or coffee is used to flush through the colon to remove toxins and rid the body of excess waste and bacteria. Colonics can be very beneficial for many individuals with chronic or acute health issues. Many patients with gastrointestinal issues, arthritis, autoimmune conditions, bacterial infections, parasites and bloating have seen tremendous improvements in their health.
Several colon hydrotherapy benefits include:
1. Help maintain bowel regularity. While it cleanses the large intestine, it helps to restore normal function and balance to the body thus helping to facilitate regular bowel movements.
2. Aids in preventing constipation and hemorrhoids. When you are constipated, your system is not working efficiently. The colon muscles contract poorly or too slowly causing stool to sit and become hard. When you finally move your bowels, you may push causing a strain and greatly increasing the risk of hemorrhoids. Colonics may help prevent constipation and hemorrhoids.
3. May boost energy by removing toxic buildup. This allows waste to be taken out of your system safely and prompts a more efficient pathway to detoxification. This, in turn, can make you feel lighter and more energetic.
4. May decrease the risk of certain cancers such as colon cancer. Toxins are absorbed through your skin and get processed by your liver and gastrointestinal system. Without proper elimination these toxins can continuously circulate in your system and be reabsorbed, causing inflammation and serious health issues that increase the risk of certain types of cancer.
5. Can aid in weight loss. When fecal matter and excess mucus builds up on colon walls, it can cause you to become sluggish. This can make you feel lethargic and lead to weight gain. Colonics can rid the colon of that excess sludge and waste causing you to feel lighter.
Eliminating waste and excess toxins from the colon leads to increased feelings of well-being and overall, significantly better health.
