Best Colonic, Colon Cleanse and Colon Hydrotherapy in Seattle and Olympia

The Complete Guide to Colon Hydrotherapy at Tummy Temple

What is Colon Hydrotherapy?

Colon Hydrotherapy is a safe and effective method of cleansing the colon (the large intestine) of accumulated wastes and toxins through natural peristalsis, supported by gentle flushing with filtered water. This practice dates back to early Egypt and has been used to improve the efficiency of the body’s elimination organs such as the skin, lungs, liver, and kidneys, thereby enhancing nutrient absorption and overall detoxification.

Benefits of Colon Hydrotherapy

Colon hydrotherapy is not a cure or treatment for any medical condition, but it facilitates better waste elimination, reduces stress, and aids in the assimilation of foods. A clean and healthy colon may also help alleviate fatigue, irritability, arthritis, bad breath, skin problems, headaches, depression, allergies, abdominal discomfort, and bloating, contributing to an overall enhancement of well-being.

The Procedure Explained

The procedure involves gently flushing the colon with filtered water through a disposable speculum. This process is simple, comfortable, and not painful. During the session, which lasts approximately 45 minutes, material from within the colon is gently eliminated through the waste tube. The therapy typically involves several gentle fills and releases, making it both safe and effective.

When to Consider Colon Hydrotherapy

Colon hydrotherapy is especially beneficial when preparing for surgery, making significant lifestyle changes, or embarking on a meditative retreat. It can also be an invaluable aid following periods of stress, overeating, drug abuse, or general lethargy.

A healthy colon may also help reduce symptoms of:

  • Fatigue
  • Irritability
  • Arthritis
  • Bad breath
  • Skin problems
  • Headaches
  • Depression
  • Allergies
  • Abdominal discomfort
  • Bloating

Approaches to Colon Hydrotherapy

At Tummy Temple, colon hydrotherapy can be approached in several ways:

  • Occasional Cleansing: 1-3 sessions over a 1-2 week period.
  • Extended Cleansing Support: Typically 8-14 sessions on average over a 2-6 month period.
  • Seasonal Cleansing: 1-3 sessions per season, to maintain optimal colon health.

Comparing Colon Hydrotherapy and Enemas

Unlike an enema, which only cleanses the lower 8-12 inches of the bowel, a colon hydrotherapy session at Tummy Temple may cleanse the entire five feet of the colon, providing a much more extensive and effective cleansing experience.

Notice of Clarity: Colon Hydrotherapy is not within the scope of practice of the Massage (LMT), Registered Dietitians (RD) and Nutrition (CN) licenses. LMP, RD and CN registrations, certifications and licenses do not include training or certification for Colon Hydrotherapy.
