Colonic Hydrotherapy

I think only you caught that! haha

A healthy body will is able to detox without expensive cleanses or procedures. It detoxes you on a daily basis. I could see doing hydrotherapy if your digestive system is backed up. But, first you should go to a doctor and figure out whats going on and how to prevent it from happening again.

If you want the same effect without going to see someone then do the colonoscopy prep with miralax. It will clean out your entire digestive system.

I have taken it in the past with no reaction but a rumbly in my tumbly. I also drank a whole bottle of magnesium citrate with just the same reaction. I guess some of us are just full of crap and need a little extra..push....regardless of how healthy we seem. It has been a problem I have dealt with since I was a child. Went a short time thinking I had colon cancer and other serious medical issues. This isn't a joke to me because I take this very seriously. So the people hating on those who want or have had a colonic are just rambling on just to do so, I have actual experience with it and actual health problems that have benefited from having a colonic done.

I will trust my Dr over you, thanks. I drink a TON of water and eat fiber and take probiotics. I am sure your online degree at Google University is worth trusting you over my Dr that I have seen over 10 years.

I'd love to know who Doctor Buttbath is. I'd like to make sure I avoid him/her at all costs.

Go harass other people troll. We have better things to do, like poop.

Right...people who eat properly, those with properly working plumbing are the trolls. Not the people who believe that shoving hoses full of liquid up their bottoms to make things work is good and helpful. That make all sorts of sense - oh no, wait. It doesn't!

Colonics that aren't required to prepare a person for a medical procedure are hokum. Real doctors know this.

You aren't a real Dr nor do you have medical issues that actually benefit from a colonic. So go knit something grandma and pretend to know everything on another thread. All you are doing now is harassing people just for the sake of harassing them and I actually pity you for that.

So, being 45 makes me a "grandma", and being a "grandma" is somehow viewed by you as a negative thing, since you've chosen to use it as a pejorative. Nice ageism there. I'll just take my biology degree and totter off to my rocker now. :laugh:

If you want to clean out your bowels, just eat a ton of garlic. It'll help shed all of the junk attached to your intestinal lining (and give you really stinky BMs to be prepared to crack a window lol)

I've heard using enemas regularly ends up making your body dependent on them and you have a harder time using the restroom naturally.

In order to make the body dependent on them a person would need to do it a few times a month. Not once in a great while. Plus an at home enema is waaaaaay different than seeing a professional.

/shrug I just mean overusing them, which seems like it would be easy to do if its someone looking for a easy way to lose weight. I know they're two different things, but it's the same means to an end... I guess if it makes you feel better and that's the type of thing you want to treat yourself to every once in a while, carry on :drinker:

There are people who overuse them I imagine, just like anything else. Addictive personalities will become addicted to pretty much anything, whether it is an enema, gambling, drugs, or alcohol. I also didn't have it done to lose weight. Because honestly there isn't much of a weigh difference and even if there was a weight difference you're not losing any fat lol. That still stays.

Colonic Hydrotherapy is GROSE

I also had to buy some probiotics after, to put all the good bacteria in you, you keep them in the fridge... She will tell you all this anyway. Alot of food like steak or red meat can be stored in your gut for years and years, as doesnt full digest properly.

You have other medical issues you need to have checked out if you have food staying in your systems for years and years. If your food isn't being digested properly you have an issue.

To the OP, it's not worth to cost or the experience. There is no need to do so unless it's for a medical purpose. To the poster who said her doctor suggested them because she has a "slow colon" ... drink more water and consume more fiber.

I don't know why people do these things. Sure, it may clean you out but once you eat and you have food in your system again all that stuff in your colon is right back where it was.

These things can be harmful. This will remove the good bacteria from your system.

There is no "colonics" school.. meaning you are letting people do this on you that have no school, and no real knowledge. If they are telling you that steak stays in your system for years and years you need to run far away. They will tell you all sorts of false information to get you coming back.

I will trust my Dr over you, thanks. I drink a TON of water and eat fiber and take probiotics. I am sure your online degree at Google University is worth trusting you over my Dr that I have seen over 10 years.

Wow.... do you really think everyone gets their information from Google? Dont make assumptions. There are some people on here who are incredibly smart.. who have studies various parts of healthcare. Not everyone searches Google for their information... and those that do, not a very smart choice. The knowledge I have is from studying and peer reviewed research studies... not some random Google search. I don't believe I ever attacked you in my post so don't respond with attitude to me please.

If your Doctor suggests it, than go for it. However, Doctors don't know everything. Sometimes you need to go see another doctor to get a second opinion. Not all doctors stay informed with the latest knowledge. Doctors also give advice on things they have barely any knowledge or training on... nutrition for example. They barely have any nutrition training when they are in school.

Not saying not to trust your doctor ... just saying that they don't know everything.

It has been pointed out that should you have to do it for medical purposes, than knock yourself out. That's a reason to do it if you have properly researched it and have decided it's best for you.

The OP wanted to do it to "detox" (which our bodies do ourselves) and to increase metabolism, clear skin, etc which is not proper reason to do colonic hydroptherapy.

The only thing I can say here is that I had an operation recently in an UK hospital. I needed an empty colon and small intestine before the procedure. Was I given an enema? Nope. I had to drink some stuff called Picolax and they put me on a drip after the inevitable happened (Stay Close to the WC!) As for drinking probiotics... I think your stomach acid pretty much wipes out any bacteria you eat....

Hi,
Nice to see your post.
The purpose of colon hydrotherapy is to eliminate the poison merchandise and also the unclean residue within the colon.
colon hydrotherapy instrumentality conjointly maintains the water pressure and temperature therefore the cleansing is conducted at an even rate.
Keep sharing.

No. Colon hydrotherapy is nonsense.

Unbelievable, all the replies from people who have never had it done. No one asked you people. No one cares what you think about it. I might want advice on a tummy tuck, so if I go to a thread about tummy tucks and all I see are people tut-tutting about how bad it is, how it doesn't look good, isn't natural, complications, etc.----FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER DONE IT---I don't get my answer.

No one asked them, and somehow they think they are sooo important that people want to hear their two pesetas. Why not answer on threads that you do have experience with? Who are you trying to convince that it is "quackery", us or yourselves?
