If you decide to choose hydrotherapy for colon cleansing then you will likely go to an information session first. They will explain the procedure to you and give you an appointment. The appointment is usually within a few days of the information session.



Hydrotherapy is accomplished by having two thin tubes inserted into the anus and into the upper GI tract. The first tube will flush warm water through the colon and the second tube is there to drain the debris that is removed. A technician will be with you in order to administer the treatment.

After the treatment you will likely need to move your bowels immediately. A private bathroom is available in most clinics in order for you to void. After this the hydrotherapy session is over and you may get dressed and leave. Your colon is now cleansed and you should follow up for another cleansing between six and twelve months from now.

There are a couple of drawbacks to hydrotherapy that you should consider before deciding on the procedure. The first is that the process is done with another person in the room. This can be embarrassing for many people and make the process less comfortable than other methods.

Another drawback is that hydrotherapy can be significantly more expensive that other methods. The cost will vary depending on the area in which you live, but it is something to consider.

A good alternative to hydrotherapy is to take an all natural herbal supplement. These are relatively inexpensive and can be taken in the privacy of your own home. Regardless of which method you choose cleansing the colon is important and will leave you feeling much healthier when you're done.
