How To Prepare For Colon Hydrotherapy

Please prepare the day before your session by drinking a few liters of water throughout the day (Try to do this every day if you can!) to ensure that you are well-hydrated for your session. Eat healthy and nourishing foods the day of your colon hydrotherapy session, unless you are fasting. Eating a meal, two to four hours before your colonic is ideal, but no food or beverage should be consumed in the two hours before your appointment.

You are in process of taking very good care of yourself, so please remember to allow for the time and space you need to be in a calm state of mind. Your body responds best to treatment when it is relaxed; deep breathing, laughing, exercising, soothing music and a positive, supportive environment all help facilitate this peaceful state.

If you wish to go a few steps further, there are a number of additional foods you can eat to prepare for your colon hydrotherapy. Include lots of the following in your healthy diet:

• Raw fruits and vegetables (preferably organic)
• Lightly steamed low starch vegetables, organic raw nuts and seeds
• Green juices and smoothies
• Soups and easily digested foods

After your session, we recommend a good probiotic like BumBiotics,  which are available to purchase. During a colonic some of the good bacteria, along with the bad, may be eliminated from your colon. The probiotics will re-inoculate your system with the good bacteria you need. 

We ask that you eat very light, pure and easy-to-digest foods for the remainder of the day. Try to stay away from raw, overly rich, heavy foods. You have just cleansed your system and we suggest that you allow your body the time it needs to rest and relax, so it can go to work to heal you, rather than go to work digesting rich meals. Please try to stay away from alcohol; it will go directly to your head and may cause a stomachache because it is just too strong for your freshly cleansed system.

It is fine to carry on with your normal daily plans or to return to work, as you will feel fine. Most people feel energetic, light and in a very positive mood after a cleansing.
