What Happens During a colon hydrotherapy session?

Your Colon Hydrotherapy treatment will generally last 40 minutes during your hour.The session will begin with Sarika taking your case history followed by a thorough explanation of the procedure. You then change into a gown.During the treatment itself, you relax on a treatment couch in complete comfort. From the hydrotherapy equipment, a small disposable speculum is gently inserted into the rectum, through which warm filtered water passes into the colon. The speculum has separate water (inwards) and waste line (outwards) that is attached to the hydrotherapy equipment.The warm purified water is introduced very slowly into the colon, and slight pressure builds up. The water is then gently released along with waste matter. The colon hydrotherapy equipment used at Clarity Wellbeing fills at a very low constantly monitored pressure. The process of filling and releasing is typically repeated 3 to 5 times during the treatment. Whilst you are vacuating Sarika will use light massage on the abdominal area to increase peristalsis (the muscular action of the colon to move waste through). This in turn will loosen faecal impaction, dislodge toxic waste matter adhering to the walls of the colon and will assist in moving gas through.Just one colon hydrotherapy session may be equivalent to having 20 or 30 regular bowel movements. Eliminations during subsequent therapy sessions can be even more substantial as older, hardened, impacted faeces are dislodged from the colon walls.Sarika will carefully evaluate your progress during their session to determine if additional sessions would be beneficial. After one session, many people report a feeling of heightened energy, an increased sense of wellbeing and renewed vitality.Through her own personal experiences, Sarika understands the ability of colon hydrotherapy to work at every level of our being. For many this will include helping to unlock the treasure and hidden potential that lies within each and every one of us.
