HYDROTHERAPY
Colon Hydrotherapy &
Enema
Gentle cleansing of the lower bowel with water, from a simple naturopathic enema to a full supervised colon hydrotherapy session. Used for constipation and as part of detox programs.
01WHAT IT IS
Cleansing the lower bowel is one of the oldest naturopathic practices and also part of Ayurvedic Basti therapy. A simple enema introduces a measured quantity of warm water, sometimes with herbs, to relieve constipation and clear the lower bowel. Colon hydrotherapy is a longer, supervised session in which warm filtered water gently flushes the colon in cycles using dedicated equipment.
Both are used for constipation, bloating and heaviness, and as preparation within detox and Panchkarma programs. Colon hydrotherapy is charged separately from the daily program rate.
