Preparation

For first-time colon hydrotherapy clients, please make sure to review the material in the Suggested Reading section and complete the Client forms. Print out: Client intake, Contraindication and the Cancellation policy to bring with you to your initial visit.

Please note: Women in their monthly cycle can still benefit greatly from having a colonic treatment. In fact, because the body is already in a natural state of cleansing during that time of the month, the session can prove to be even more beneficial. Many of our clients have noticed a decrease in cramping, bloating, moodiness and fatigue afterwards.

In the 24-48 hours prior to your Colon Hydrotherapy session, we suggest that you eat primarily seasonal and organic vegetables, fruits, juices and whole grains. Drinking a minimum of 6-8 glasses of purified or distilled water daily will assist in the cleansing process. The only thing that we require of you on day of your appointment is that you limit your fluid intake and DO NOT eat in the 2 hours immediately prior to your appointment. Once you arrive at our office, we will ask you to prepare your self for the session by emptying your bladder, undressing from the waist down and covering yourself with a gown to assure your modesty. Soothing music, essential oils, and a covered sheet all help to create an atmosphere of relaxation and safety.

Foods and beverages to be AVOIDED directly BEFORE and AFTER your session:

Alcohol
Coffee and tea with caffeine
Carbonated drinks

Gas producing foods such as: beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, onions, excessive soy products, and raw apples. Any foods that you know of that cause you gas should also be avoided for 24 hours prior to treatment.

Please remember the better you nourish your body with clean, green, organic and healthy food, the greater and more beneficial your treatment will be. Literally, you are what you eat. You will feel as “toxic and junky” as the toxic and processed junk food you eat. Please reference the Acid/Alkaline Food charts here for some healthy food choices
