How Colon Hydrotherapy Can Help with Occasional Constipation
Colon hydrotherapy helps with issues of occasional constipation by gently supporting hydration of the colon and the elimination of waste matter.
Many people deal with occasional constipation from time to time. At The Best Colonics in Santa Monica, we have offered colon hydrotherapy for over 40 years, and it is one of the most common reasons clients first visit us.
What Is Colon Hydrotherapy?
Colon hydrotherapy, also called colonics or colonic irrigation, is a session in which filtered, temperature-controlled water is gently introduced into the colon and then released. This filling and releasing is repeated several times during a session, using a sealed, closed system with disposable tubing.
How Colon Hydrotherapy Can Help
Colon hydrotherapy:
- Supports hydration of the colon
- Promotes the loosening and elimination of waste matter from the colon
- Assists in elimination through natural peristalsis in the colon
- Helps with issues of occasional constipation
