Colon cleansing / colon hydrotherapy / colonic irrigation has been carried out for thousands of years – records from ancient Egypt, traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Few of us eat as healthily as we should or take enough exercise, and inevitably, this upsets the natural way our digestive system works. This can lead to a range of negative health effects from digestion and bowel problems to lethargy and headaches. As well as helping with symptoms, colonics can also give a sensation of overall well-being and they’re often the inspiration for a healthier diet and lifestyle all round.
