Periodic cleansing of the colon dilutes the toxic concentration in the bowels, resulting in reduced load on the liver and lymphatic systems, and supports the other eliminative organs of the body (skin, lungs, kidneys, lymph) for better function.
When an unusual burden is placed on any one system, a breakdown occurs affecting the body as a whole.
Cleansing the colon prevents the overburden of toxic substances to accumulate, thereby addressing the cause of many degenerative diseases.

How does Colon Therapy differ from Enemas?
Colon therapy offers much more thorough cleansing of the colon than enemas can, as an enema's action can only reach as far as the sigmoid area (see illustration on left). A Colon irrigation can go as far as the ascending colon and cecum area, (depending on the state of the colon, this may take more sessions).
What are the main functions of the colon?
The main functions are to eliminate waste, conserve water and synthesize nutrients such as some B complex vitamins and vitamin K.
How long does a Colon treatment take?
On your first visit we will discuss your health concerns, you will fill out an intake form, and the procedure will be explained prior to your colonic. This takes between 20-30 minutes. The treatment itself takes 35-45 minutes, and includes specific massage techniques to help remove waste.
The first visit can take up to 1 1/2 hours, and subsequent visits are usually one hour in length.
How often should one have colonics?
For health maintenance colonics are used in combination with detoxification programs that include cleansing diets, exercise, skin brushing, and probiotic supplementation. Often a series of three to four colonic sessions is necessary to achieve desired results, followed by regular sessions one to three months apart.
Cost of Treatment:
Single session $80
Multiple sessions $70
