Colonics
Contrary to popular belief, Colonic Hydrotherapy has been used for hundreds of years dating back to 1500 B.C. The Health Lodge, however, brings a completely new and fresh Naturopathic approach to colonics.
We merge the ancient practice of Colonic Hydrotherapy, Cellular Cleansing, Detoxification and Natural Medicine to create a gentle and natural approach to healing. This optimal and affordable Naturopathic program consists of cleansing, detoxifying and purifying treatments that help to restore health by healing the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of the human experience.
Illness & disease
At approximately 1.8 meters in length, the primary job of the colon is to eliminate waste and toxins, as well as prevent the growth of harmful pathogens, including bacteria, fungi and parasites. The average colon contains nearly 60 varieties of microflora and bacteria that aid digestion and promote the production and absorption of nutrients. However, the re-absorption of toxic waste from your vital organs, rather than its elimination via the colon, places metabolic stress on these organs, contributing to illness and disease.
Our bodies are wise and will go into dysfunction in order to set us up for our individual healing.
Benefits of colonics
Our digestive systems are the seat of our emotions, so when we cleanse, we need to cleanse on all levels. Colonics is a powerful way to cleanse our physical bodies and heal on all levels.
At The Health Lodge, our natural approach to colonics for our patients means they experience the many benefits of this cleansing therapy, including:
- Relief from IBS and SIBO symptoms (bloating, constipation, flatulence and abdominal pain).
- Increased bowel muscle tone resulting in more regular elimination.
- Healthier, better functioning digestive system.
- Enhanced absorption of water and nutrients.
- Clearer mind and better concentration.
- Fewer headaches and less pain.
- Renewed energy and vitality.
- Clearer and healthier skin.
- Weight loss.
Compared to other colonic hydrotherapy clinics, we employ a more medical approach to colonics. This means that all our new patients require a 1.5 hour appointment for their first visit with 1 hour follow-up consultations.
