Colon Hydrotherapy

Are you a toxic waste site?

Pamper your body inside and out. Transform your health and well being with a gentle infusion of water to cleanse away your toxins, stimulate the Colon muscle helping it to recover its normal shape and bring back the natural peristaltic action.

The YOU Beauty Clinic in Trowbridge, Wiltshire have installed the brand new LIBBE Colon Hydrotherapy system. This is currently one of only very few in the UK .

The system is less invasive and more private than the traditional method of treatment. The tube in inserted by you, with guidance from the Therapist. Then, following Consultation and discussion, you are left to relax through the treatment on your own. If you feel the need to ring for the Therapist, then she will be there in seconds. If you prefer and you wish the Therapist to remain with you throughout the treatment, then she can apply hot packs and abdominal massage to aid the effectiveness of the treatment.

The speculum used with this system are all disposable and therefore you can guarantee absolute hygiene.

Prior and following your treatments we can advise you on the optimum Nutritional advice with Advanced Nutrition Programme, which works to complement the benefits of Hydrotherapy. See the section on Advanced Nutrition

SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT COLON HYDROTHERAPY:

1. CHRONIC BACK PAIN : A colon that is heavily impacted with waste is not only poisoning the system, but also contributing to back problems. It puts pressure on the sciatic and lumbar nerves. This situation is unfortunately universally overlooked! Parasites and worms can also cause backache

2. COLON CANCER: This is the second leading cause of death, which is an exclusive phenomenon of the Western World. In the US Colon Cancer is the number one killer and has been directly linked to high animal protein and low fibre diets.

3. ADDICTIONS: By cleaning the Colon and removing poisons, this aids in eliminating the addition in a less traumatic way with less side effects

4. CARCINOGENS(Cancer causing properties) Periodic Colon cleansing reduces the Colon walls’ susceptibility to Carcinogens

5. CAUSES OF DIARRHOEA: Viruses, allergies, emotional problems, fear, worms, unripe fruit, thyroid problems and dysentery

6. COLON CLEANSING BEFORE DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES: Detection of Colo-rectal Cancer is made easier when using Colon cleansing before diagnostic procedures such as sigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy and barium x-rays.

7. SURGERY: Patients recover more quickly from Surgery when given a Colonic. The bowel shuts down and become constipated due to anaesthetic.

8. DIGESTIVE TRACT: The length of the digestive tracts is about 6x the length of the human body

9. COLON PRODUCES VITAMINS: The colon helps produce B Vitamins, folic acid, niacin, riboflavin and pantothenic acid. It also aids in re-digestion of proteins, lactose and the formation of amino acids.

10. CONSTIPATION: Constipation puts pressure on the liver, gall bladder and bile duct

11. IMMUNE SYSTEM: An unhealthy Colon jeopardizes the immune system

12. LASTING EFFECT: Colonics have a lasting effect only when the lifestyle is changed to a healthy one, otherwise it is only temporary

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

1. Are treatments painful? NO. It is a very gentle and cleansing treatment. Occasionally there may be slight moments of discomfort when there is air or accumulated waste moving in the Colon. At this time the Therapist can alter the water pressure to reduce discomfort immediately. However, it is a sign that if discomfort is present, then you are more in need than ever of this treatment!

2. How long does a treatment take? Consultation is about 45mins and treatments are between 35 and 45 minutes, however plan an hour.

3. What is the difference between Colonic and Enema? With Colonic Therapy the treatment reaches the whole Colon whereas Enema only reaches the lower section. Also Hydrotherapy does not involve the retention of water is is merely the gentle flow that creates the benefit of cleansing

4. Are Colonics safe? Yes perfectly and have been used in one form or another since 1500BC!

5. How many will I need? This will depend on each individual and will be discussed during Consultation process

6. Can you have Colonics with a period? Yes this will not interfere with the treatment and in many cases it will actually relieve menstrual pain

7. Can I eat before a Colonic? It is better not to eat anything 2 hours prior to treatment. Liquids are fine, however do not drink carbonated beverages because this will add to the Gas in the Colon. You may eat afterwards and a light diet of fish, chicken or Salad is advised

8. Do Colonics upset the natural intestinal flora? NO – what causes a real problem is when the waste builds up on the colon wall, so that the Intestinal flora are hampered from growing. This can cause many health problems. – You will be amazed at what is found lurking in the Colon – breast milk from Childhood?!!! during the process some of the good bacteria will be cleansed but generally the good has been overtaken by the bad! so by cleansing you give your Colon a chance to accept good Vitamins and Probiotics and gives the good bacteria to be reproduced within 2-3 days.

9. Can you become addicted? No absolutely not! Hydrotherapy is not a laxative! These can be dangerous and have a chemical dependence because you have to increase the number you take to get the same effect! Laxatives irritate the lining of the Colon. When they are used too often the natural peristalsis action is weakened which only creates more constipation! Colonics in contrast will cleanse and stimulate the natural peristaltic action so that normal function returns.

10. Can I have a Colonic in my lunch hour? Absolutely no problem, it will not interfere with your daily tasks and don’t forget we are open late and on Sundays!!

11. Is it suitable to men and Women? Absolutely both will benefit

12.How will I feel after a treatment? This can vary enormously. Some are ready to run a marathon! Others can want to crawl under a duvet for the rest of the day. You can experience some shivers and sometimes emotional release as our feelings are often stored in the gut. After the first one or two treatments this will subside.

13. Can I just have one treatment? Of course you can. It is just that we know from our experience – and the length of the Colon! that you will not get the full benefits from just one treatment. Because there is a lot of bowel to cleanse and often it is misformed, it is usually necessary to carry out a course of treatments.

14. Could it perforate my bowel? No – water is introduced as very low gravity feed pressure. Because our speculum are disposable there is also no risk of cross infections. Out Therapist is trained to the highest standards of hygiene and disinfection procedures.

15. Are there any contraindications? Yes, you cannot have Hydrotherapy in any of the following situations:

1) Pregnancy or if you are trying to get pregnant
2) Uncontrolled high blood pressure (OK if on medication)
3) Inflamed state of Colitis or diverticulitus or any other form of bleeding – unless receding or with permission from your Doctor.
4) Abdominal Hernia/surgery – unless this has arisen years previously and the wounds are all healed
5) Acute Liver failure
6) Anemia – with consent from Doctor
7) Carcinoma
Cardiac conditions
9) Dialysis patients
10) Fistulas/Fissures
11) Intestinal perforation
12) Lupus
13) Rectal surgery – unless carried out years previously
14) Renal insufficiencies

16. Why is my Medical Doctor unaware? Few medical doctors treat the whole person, they are specialists in their field. Up until about 1920 Doctors used to have Colon Hydrotherapy devices in their offices, then came along drugs and it became easier to prescribe, but it is making a comeback with many Surgeries and Doctors are becoming more proactive in their recommendation of Complementary Therapies.

17. How often do I have to have treatments? It is best to have the first 2 treatments back to back and then 2 the following week, leaving you with 2 for follow up. The recommendation is between 6 and 12 treatments, depending on the severity of your problems. Once you have completed a full cleanse then generally it will be as often as you feel if necessary, depending on your follow up lifestyle and health issues, it will be anywhere from 4-12 weeks.

18.Are there any discounts schemes available? Yes if you introduce a friend for treatments then you will get a 15% discount as a Thankyou
