Read MoreAt The Sanctuary at Sedona, we address emotional and mental health disorders from every angle to help you reclaim your life. For this reason, we can incorporate colon hydrotherapy into your recovery program to cleanse the colon and enhance your overall well-being.
What Does Colon Hydrotherapy Do?
Colon hydrotherapy, or colon cleansing, is a treatment that loosens and flushes out waste material from the large intestine using a gentle stream of clean, filtered and warm water. A practitioner introduces the water into the colon by passing a small tube through the rectum.
During the 30-minute or one-hour therapy session, your body will expel waste and toxins through natural peristalsis.
Benefits of Colon Hydrotherapy
Addressing every aspect of your health as you recover is vital. As a result, we include colon hydrotherapy in our healing program to help you reclaim your digestive health.
The connection between your mind and body is strong, meaning you must treat both to achieve full recovery. When your body feels good, your mental state will improve, and vice versa.
Here are the advantages you’ll receive from a colonic:
- Improved hydration: During hydrotherapy, your body absorbs a significant amount of the water entering your system, improving hydration and bodily functions.
- Better digestive health: Experiencing bloating and constipation on top of a mental or emotional health disorder can make it challenging to eat properly and absorb nutrients. Fortunately, colon hydrotherapy will alleviate these issues, allowing you to enjoy meals, digest food efficiently and receive nutritional benefits.
- Improved detoxification: Colon cleansing expels toxins and waste from your body, minimizing the detoxification pressure on your liver and kidneys and elevating your overall well-being.
- Increased immunity: Seventy percent to 80% of immune cells live in the gut, meaning your digestive system contributes significantly to your health. By cleaning out the colon, hydrotherapy removes toxins, waste and harmful bacteria, boosting your immune system. With enhanced immunity, you’ll have the ability to recover faster, both mentally and physically.
- Enhanced energy levels: You can feel more energetic after a colonic session because your body’s ability to absorb nutrients and function optimally will have improved.
