  • Our initial consultations begin with walking you through the whole procedure. We explain the filtration system, the mechanics of the session, and answer any questions you may have with regards to what to expect during and after the session.

    Once the session begins, we apply a warm castor oil pack on your abdomen, cover you in a warm blanket and heating pad. During the session, we perform reflexology on your feet and gently massage your abdomen to your comfort level.

    The gentle inflow of filtered water is always to your comfort level and the release of waste is controlled by your body's own peristaltic movement. The rest of the session is a repetition of introducing warm filtered water into your large intestine and your body releasing diluted waste. We work within your comfort level and aim to make each session as comfortable as possible.

    Our colon hydrotherapists are certified through the International Association of Colon Hydrotherapists (I-ACT). Our colonic machines are FDA certified AquaNet closed system units offering both gravitational and gently pressurized colonic sessions. For your safety, we use disposable, one time use speculum kits. Because we specialize in first time clients, the initial appointment is 1 1/2 hours. All follow-up sessions will be 1 hour.

    If you have any of the following contraindications you are required to have a doctor’s referral saying that you are healthy enough to receive colon hydrotherapy. Please obtain the doctor’s note before scheduling your colon hydrotherapy session. Please call our office if you have any questions.
