Everything Colonics

“Every tissue in the body is fed by the bloodstream, which is supplied by the bowel. When the bowel is dirty, the blood is dirty and so are the organs and tissues. It is the bowel that must be cared for first.”

Nutritionalist and Author, Dr. Bernard Jensen

Basic Preparation May Included: 


Stress Reduction

The importance of stress reduction throughout a cleanse should not be underestimated. More on this topic coming soon.  

It is normal to feel unwell while cleansing. As the colon clears, toxins elsewhere in the body begin to move. out too. When toxins move we feel it. Learn more about Detoxification and what to expect.

Hydration

  • Drink half your body weight, in ounces of water and avoid diuretics (caffeine and alcohol). 
  • Refrain from drinking 60 minutes prior to your session. (sips are okay)

Diet Adjustments

  • 48 hours before your session, meals should be free of animal, dairy or flour products. These foods move slower through the digestive tract. They may reduce the productivity and comfort of a colonic. 
  • Refrain from all foods for 1-2 hours before your session. 

See more Articles on Diet for helpful suggestions and variations to these restrictions.

AIM Herbal Fiberblend Info Sheet 

Testimonials of the benefits of AIM Herbal Fiberblend, When Your Intestines are Clean You Have alot More Energy

  • Psyllium Powder bulks up and attaches itself to old fecal matter making it soft and loose so it will move away and through the colon.
  • AIM Herbal Fiberblend, when taken with adequate water, on an empty stomach, creates a hydrated, gel-like substance that gently  moves through and brushes the GI tract.
  • You can start the Fiberblend 3-14 days before your session

Important Dosage Guidelines 

BENT GINGER

  • Liquid Bentonite Clay absorbs 40x its own weight in toxic substances. It helps draw fecal matter away from the colon walls.
  • The Bent Ginger, added to the Fiberblend draws toxins into the fiber-gel, holds it, and prepares it for release during bowel movements and colonic sessions. I have also found this to reduce common side effects of detoxification.
  • You can start the Bent Ginger no more then 2 days before a session.

Important Dosage Guidelines 

If you are constipated or experiencing frequent diarrhea, talk to your Colon Hydrotherapist for suggestions and read about How to  get the Bowels Moving.

How Many Colonics Should I Have, and How Often? 

  • One session will help to rehydrate you, but it generally takes 3 to 4 sessions to reach the entire  colon and for some individuals  up to 10 sessions to remove encrusted waste. 
  • The more comfortable the client becomes receiving colonics, the more they will eliminate. *Please refer to the handout, “Difficult Colonics, Awakening the Sleeping Dragon”.
  • Similar to dental cleaning, annual or bi-annual cleanses help to keep the colon functioning optimally.
  • The Colon is a Muscle which benefits from exercise, but like all muscles should not be overworked. Colonics is a workout for the Colon and should be scheduled with this in mind to include rest days. To start colonics may be booked 2-7 days apart and when doing deeper cleanses along with fasts they may be scheduled consecutively.
