| Where is the faecal debris that the
treatment removes? |
| |
It can be in pockets in the colon wall, or glued to
the wall with hardened mucous |
| |
|
| How much debris is there likely to
be? |
| |
Obviously this varies but typically 3 to 5 lbs (1.5
to 2.5 Kg) can be lodged in the colon. Sometimes as much
as 25 lbs (12 Kg) can be present |
| |
|
| Why doesn't the debris move through
in the normal course of events - especially if you have
diarrhoea? |
| |
Old matter that is stuck to the colon wall or lodged
in pockets in the wall tends to be be passed over
without being dissolved. |
| |
|
| Can I have this rubbish in my colon
and not be ill or suffer from it? |
| |
Yes, although you may be experiencing mild symptoms
such as fatigue or tiredness, skin problems etc. |
| |
|
| Will I experience an immediate
improvement in health? |
| |
Probably not, although some people do. This is
because the "stirring up" of old debris can release
toxins into the body. This is not predictable but more
noticeable when the person being treated is suffering
from a severely blocked colon. As the cleansing is
repeated, the toxins will be flushed away and these
effects will cease. |
| |
|
| Are there things I should or
shouldn't do when having colonic therapy? |
| |
It is a good idea to use diet, vitamin and mineral
supplements, herbs and homeopathy, exercise and deep
breathing where possible. |
| |
|
| For how long has Colonic Hydrotherapy
been practised? |
| |
The first known use of the therapy was by the
Egyptians around 1500 BC. It is also mentioned in the
Bible and the Yogis in India used there own method of
cleansing the bowel. |
