COLON HYROTHERAPY

  Colon hydrotherapy  helps  to cleanse the colon up to 40 lbs. of  poison toxins and accumulated fecal matter. During the process, warm filtered water is used to soak and remove waste that adhere to the walls of the entire large intestines. While the client is lying comfortably on a table, a small  disposable speculum is inserted into the rectum. Water flows in the colon via a small water tube and out through a different tube called a waste tube which carries the impacted feces, mucous, and toxins. You will see the expelled waste matter when it passes through a special viewing window and there is virtully no odor. We use state-of-the-art closed system equipment approved by the FDA.
 

                            What is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Also known as a "colonic" or "colon lavage", colon hydrotherapy is a safe, effective method of removing waste from the large intestine without the use of drugs or chemicals by repeated, gentle flushing with water.

How do I know if I need Colon Hydrotherapy?

If you have frequent headaches, colds, gas and bloating, fatigue, constipation, impaired digestion, candida, bad breath or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) you could benefit from receiving colon hydrotherapy.

Is Colon Hydrotherapy safe?

Yes. Using FDA approved equipment, individual components which are used once and then thrown away and sterile procedures, there is no danger of contamination. In fact, treatments are much safer than the common home enema. Our skilled therapist always exercises care.

How does Colon Hydrotherapy compare to an enema?

An enema only reaches and bathes the lower part of the colon, while Colon Hydrotherapy bathes the entire length of the colon. The colon is bathed over a longer period of time, thus helping to rehydrate the colon and soften any hardened waste that may be stuck to the walls of the colon.

Can constipation occur even if I have 1 or 2 bowel movements a day?

Yes . Mucoid plaque and gas in the colon may interfere with natural peristaltic action, resulting in incomplete—though frequent—bowel movements. This backup of toxic waste can cause a wide range of problems in the digestive tract and throughout the entire body.

How many times do I need Colon Hydrotherapy?

The number of treatments varies with each individual and depends on your degree of health. It will also depend on your ability to change or improve your lifestyle. For the first-time client an initial series of six to ten visits over several weeks is recommended. Once you have completed the initial series  it is recommended  a colon cleansing four times a year. If may help you to remember to have a cleansing with the change of every season.

Do treatments hurt?

No . In fact, the client assists with the insertion of the speculum thus insuring comfort with that part of the procedure. The filling water pressure is from a minimum of 1/4 psi and never more than 2 psi. The temperature of the water and flow are carefully monitored by the therapist with feedback from the client.

Is Colon Hydrotherapy habit-forming?

No . The purpose of cleansing the colon is to allow it to relax and rejuvenate in order to promote better peristalsis. The colon cannot heal when it is constantly working to get rid of accumulated wastes, gasses, and toxins.

How much of the intestines are actually cleansed with Colon Hydrotherapy?

During a session the therapist is actually able to bathe the full length of the colon, approximately five to five and a half feet. The cleansing of the small intestine is not possible because nature provides a little “one way door” called the ileocecal valve that prevents water and waste from entering. The buildup in the small intestine is cleared with the help of nutritional supplements taken orally during a series of cleansing and detoxification.

Should I see my doctor before having Colon Hydrotherapy?

It is always a good idea to consult your doctor, but a medical examination is not required. Colon Hydrotherapy is safer than home enemas, and at Advanced Detox Center, we use only a state-of-the-art approved device professionally administered by an I-ACT certified colon therapist. Persons with certain medical conditions, however, should not have Colon Hydrotherapy.

Does having a menstrual period at the time of my cleanse have an effect on the treatment?

No . In fact, during your period is usually a good time to receive a treatment, since your body is already cleansing. Your menstrual flow will not interfere with the success of the treatment. Flushing the colon will also reduce abdominal pressure associated with menstrual cycles.

What should I do to prepare for Colon Hydrotherapy?

A cleansing diet of fruit and vegetables for one day before your appointment is recommended. Drink 8–10 glasses of water a day. Since your abdomen will be massaged it is a good idea to avoid eating two hours before your appointment. Avoid carbonated beverages—they will only add gas to the colon. Come relaxed, and maintain a positive, cheerful attitude.

Can I work after a treatment?

Yes. In most cases Colon Hydrotherapy should not interfere with your scheduled day. However each person is different and your reaction depends on the amount of toxins in your body. If you are detoxifying while having colonics, you may feel more tired and run down as your body cleanses itself of the toxins. Most clients report feeling refreshed and energized.

How long does a treatment take?

Your first appointment will take about an hour and will include a consultation and case history. The colonic itself will take 30 to 40 minutes and each visit thereafter will take about an 50 minutes in total.

Will I experience any intestinal discomfort or fatigue after the cleansing?

You should not feel any intestinal discomfort, but cleansing will release old debris and toxins which might cause you to feel tired or to have flu like symptoms, especially in early treatments. If so, resting is recommended. These symptoms will usually pass within 24 hours.

Will Colon Hydrotherapy disturb my normal intestinal flora and electrolytes?

Yes.Colon cleansing will reduce both flora and electrolytes.  However, after each session, you can reintroduce intestinal flora into the colon with probiotics which will be offered to you along with an electrolyte drink before leaving the clinic. You can also replace your intestinal flora by drinking Kefir or Essential Duo.

INFRARED SAUNA

All life requires energy and heat from the sun. Although life needs this healing energy, too much sunlight damages the skin. Infrared sauna   provides all the healthy benefits of natural sunlight without any of the dangerous effects of solar radiation. This type of energy travels 3–4 inches deep into the body to increase circulation and nourish damaged tissues. Traditional steam saunas heat the body at very high temperatures and only on a surface level, while infrared sauna  heat with a low temp of 103, from the core level and have much deeper penetration. 

        Infrared sauna is safe for all ages and all conditions. Infrared heat relieves pain by expanding blood vessels and increasing circulation. Better circulation allows more oxygen to speed up the healing process. The process requires a large amount of energy from the body to produce a sweat, so as a result it increases the heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate. The heart receives a workout similar to a six- mile run in a 20-30 minute  infrared sauna treatment.

       Toxins such as alcohol, nicotine, metals (cadmium, lead, zinc, nickel) and mercury accumulate in the body during modern daily life. The body eliminates most toxins by sweating, but unfortunately many people suffer from low-body temperature or are chemically toxic and are unable to break a sweat. Infrared heat therapy stimulates the sweat glands that cleanse and detoxify the system and speeds up the process greatly. Some benefits you can expect from the infrared sauna  treatments include: Increased metabolism, faster recovery time, increased energy, reduced heavy metals, pain relief, and more intense detoxification. It is highly recommended to do a FIR sauna treatment prior to a colonic for amazing results.

HERBAL EAR CANDLING

Many people consider ear coning as necessary a part of personal hygiene as is tooth brushing. Ear candling is a completely  safe   remedy  used for relieving sinus pressure, fighting infection, and gently removing toxins and excess wax from inside the ears and sinus passages.

THE PROCEDURE :

Long, tapered  herbal waxed cones are inserted into the ears and lit. Warm, dry powdery smoke from the cone draws out excess fluids, wax and debris by osmosis. At the same time, vaporized beeswax and herbal essences in the smoke infuse their natural infection-fighting properties into the inner ear, sinuses and lymph drainage system. The entire process is relaxing and non-invasive. Many consider ear candling a spiritual experience and report having less allergies, clearer breathing and less “brain fog” after a session.

Treatment Time: 30 minutes

Cupping Therapy

Sometimes called the most effective form of deep-tissue therapy, cupping therapy has a 2,500-year history.  It is a very powerful form of acupressure, and has been used to treat everything from cold symptoms to muscular spasms.

Cupping Therapy Q & A

 Q:  What are those marks?

A:  They are suction marks from the small cups.  They dissipate in about a week.  Some marks are darker than others.  The darker the color, the more effective that particular cupping point was.

Q:  Does it hurt?

A:  No -- you feel a slight pinching sensation, but no pain. 

Q:  What is this therapy used for?

A:  Most clients ask for cupping when they have sore muscles, backaches, stiff neck and shoulders from stress or hard work.  The results are immediate and lasting. Cupping is basically a form of deep-tissue acupressure.  And historically, it has been used for the same symptoms that are treated by acupuncture. 

Q:  How is the suction done?

A:  Modern cups are clear plastic, often with a connection to a tube and a manually-operated air pump. There is a valve on the cup where the air can be released when the cup is removed.  There are several different sizes of cups, which allow a more focused or a broader contact with the various acupressure points.

Q:  How long does a session take?

A:  The normal session is one hour.

It consists of the following parts:

30 min:  cups are applied

15-20 min:  cups doing their work

5 mins:  cups removed
