Colon Health And Water: Colon Hydrotherapy
There is a new
therapy alternative for digestive health- a hydrotherapy from the inside out.
Karen McConnell is a certified colon hydrotherapist from Honesdale,
Pennsylvania. She is a member of the International Association of Colon
Hydrotherapy (IACT) and has been performing the procedure for a few years now.
In an interview
with Wilkes-Barre, Pa's the Weekender written by Donna Talarico, McConnell
said, "We are so built up with
toxins; this helps improve health, helps us heal and gives us more
energy."
The colon is the
body's septic tank, meaning the place where waste and toxins are stored. A
healthy colon should be clean to effectively produce vitamins B and K, and to
absorb water, she explains. So, when someone's colon is filled with waste and
blockages, it does not function properly which can lead to more serious
digestive tract problems.
Enter colon
hydrotherapy. This procedure, according to the IACT website is a method or
removing waste from the large intestine by pumping warm, filtered water into
the colon. This water loosens, softens and removes waste.
With a procedure
like this comes apprehension, and generally speaking about the colon area is
taboo to some- because of this stigma, colon health is often ignored. It
shouldn't be.
Colon cancer is the
second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Also, over
70-millions Americans suffer from bowel problems, spending a collective $400-million
on laxatives and other related products.
If one decides to,
as McConnell puts it, give their body a drink from the inside, here are the
steps. The first thing to do is find a certified therapist on the IACT website.
On the day of the
appointment, you cannot eat or drink two hours before the procedure. Once you
arrive, you are given paperwork to sign and informational material. The
procedure itself is done in a highly sterile room.
Clients will
disrobe from the waste down and put on a gown. They
lie in the bed and the
therapist lubes the anus. Usually he or she will let the person insert the
speculum themselves. Prior to that, depending on the therapist, he or she may
relax you using lavender. McConnell does.
"Colon hydrotherapy can be taxing on the nervous
system,"
she said, explaining why she likes to relax her clients.
The speculum has
two hoses- one to pump in the clean water and one to pump out the waste. These
tubes run through a lighted panel so people can actually see what is clogging
their insides. At first, the therapist will let water run in and out just to
get the client used to it.
Then, the soak mode
occurs. They will fill your intestines as much as you can handle- it does not
hurt, but many will feel like they
have to pee- and then it soaks. Then, she
releases after several minutes. This goes on two to three times.. During a
fill, you could also receive an abdominal massage with lavender to help stay
calm.

Inserting the
speculum is probably the hardest part for people, but one it passes the
sphincter muscle, it can't be felt. When it comes out, it also hurts a tad,
some say.
Afterwards, you are
sent to bathroom to empty anything that has not been emptied from the tubes.
This could be an odd sensation; a liquid coming out of where it is usually
solid. But, with the amount of water released, it should be clear how hydrated
the body got.
In essence, this
procedure serves as a flushing of impurities. McConnell says anyone can get it
done, but people who are older see the best results. Usually, one will have
three sessions for their initial treatment.

"A lot (of my clients) have bowel issues and
already see better bowel movements. Some people do not feel heartburn or
indigestion. After three sessions, skin can even improve. You are getting
hydrated from the inside," she said.
This procedure is
something that has caught on in Hollywood as well.
While it cannot be
billed as a weight loss method, some report a flatter tummy after several
sessions. But, the whole process makes a lot of sense.
Water is crucial to
the digestive process. But, when intestines are clogged, digestion is hindered.
This safe and effective way of detoxing the colon and intestines can be crucial
to preventing those debilitating colon problems down the line.
