The Colonic Treatment Procedure

 

You do not need to make any special changes to your diet or lifestyle before a treatment, however many people choose to have a treatment when embarking upon a new health regime.

 

As registered, professional therapist, I am used to people feeling nervous, especially before a first treatment. Part of my job is to put you at ease and ensure you are comfortable having your treatment.

At your first appointment I will take a full medical case history, and will explain the procedure and treatment process to you. Do not hesitate to ask any questions.

 

A brief rectal exam must be carried out and then the speculum is gently introduced 1.5 inches (4cm) into the rectum. This procedure is not painful.

An inlet and outlet tube are attached to the outside of the speculum to provide a through-flow of water going in and water and waste going out. The waste is piped away, and since the whole system is closed, there is no odour.

 

After lying on your left side to allow the speculum to be gently inserted,  I will ask you to turn onto your back.  To assist elimination of waste and gas pockets I use gentle abdominal  massage techniques.
