There are a wide variety of motives and theories for Colon Hydrotherapy.

By definition the above terms are misleading, deceptive and not accurate. Gut flora in the Large Intestine contains bacteria and micro-organisms which is estimated to be approximately the total number of all body-cells times ten, and may be as high as to the thirteenth power; equal to approximately 2 ~ 3.5 pounds.
The erroneous practice of colon-healing, founded on assumed notions and concepts of cleaning the Large Intestine are temporary, offering false-hope. Accepting these practices as substantial and adequate for significant change or improvement of the Large Intestine is absurd.
Deficient education of some Colon Hydrotherapists and the general public is responsible for our ignorance and has diluted the importance of the Large Intestine and Colon Hydrotherapy. A general lack of understanding correct physiology and the processes within the gastrointestinal tract, our nervous system, and the Body as a whole has allowed us to become negligent.
Always consult a Medical Doctor first; never attempt to diagnose self or others based on symptoms.
Unfortunately, there are far greater misconceptions regarding these topics by specialists who write about Colonics, or by those who say it's dangerous and bad for you, and in some cases by others who claim to be knowledgeable about my profession but never experienced Colon Hydrotherapy.
General information posted across the entire Internet, and almost every website, and numerous publications assert, erroneously claiming -
What speculation and assumptions by those who say such nonsense!
How absolutely and utterly ignorant for anyone who believes them!
Such bad information being regurgitated demonstrates people do not know what they are talking about, or their facts and information are not in the correct context.
Through my personal experience, extensive study and training, and understanding for more than three decades, I believe many Colon Hydrotherapists do not comprehend the full spectrum of this modality. Maybe it's their lack of training and education in physiology; possibly the therapist does not thoroughly understanding the Class 2 FDA registered device (none are approved), or maybe the therapist has not done enough work on self.
Some believe large amounts of water are necessary during the session. Their idea is - the more water in, the more waste out. This method does not guarantee optimal results and often is uncomfortable.
If the Large Intestine is approximately the circumference of your index finger touching the first thumb knuckle and its length is from wrist to wrist with your arms stretched out, how much water can your Large Intestine accommodate comfortably?
When I teach Students and in my private Colon Hydrotherapy session, I use only several ounces of water to a cup or two at one time and introduced very slowly which proves most effective. Measured no more than .25 or 1/4 pound per square inch provides for a comfortable experience. The differance being - I address the Mechanics and Functions of our Soma verses the water doing the work.
In comparison to the typical home or hospital enema, the first common error is the rate at which the water enters the anus, measured about 2 ~ 2.5 pounds per square inch and often much greater. The second mistake is the volume of water which may be as much as several quarts.
My teaching in the School and work in the Clinic is to gently encourage distension of the Large Intestine which is not beyond its natural ability to expand. A natural responding contraction will induce motility which moves the material through the entire gastrointestinal tract. This movement gives you the urge to have a bowel movement and propels the material from the body.
Relaxation is crucial. A good Certified Colon Hydrotherapist will provide an environment that is pleasant, warm, quiet and safe for the client. By tendency we allow self to be influenced by a variety of outside stress factors. These may include: thinking too much; juggling 19-balls; work and money; relationships; dietary habits; not tasting our food or eating when we should; not drinking plain water, and a lack of rest which is not sleep, etc.
Under stress the sympathetic nervous system is dominating which manifests as thinking and reacting; both digestion and elimination is compromised. Stress is known to be the foremost offender of regular bowel movements.
