Colonic Hydrotherapy is a safe, effective method of removing waste from the large intestines. The colon is one of the most important organs in the body for maintaining good health and overall bodily functionality with over 70% of the body’s immune system being located in the colon. So, if the colon is over-burdened, our whole body’s internal systems may be put under stress which can have a huge impact on our overall wellbeing.
The procedure involved with Colonic Hydrotherapy works by introducing filtered and temperature regulated water into the colon, the waste is softened and loosened, resulting in evacuation through the natural movements of the bowel, known as peristalsis. The elimination of waste, gas, mucus and toxins allows vital nutrients to be better absorbed, leaving you feeling healthy and rejuvenated.
The benefits of colonic irrigation can often be quickly observed in the form of improved bowel function, together with clearer skin, increased mental clarity and fewer headaches. Colonic irrigation can also help with the immune system, inflammatory problems and weight loss, particularly when accompanied by diet and lifestyle changes.
An initial consultation in DD Clinical’s state of the art clinic will involve a recording of the patients’ case history and an explanation of the colonic irrigation procedure. The colonic treatment itself takes about 30-40 minutes during which we may use abdomen massage to stimulate the release of stored matter.

The number of sessions of colonic irrigation that a patient will need very much depends on the goals of the individual.

Her knowledge of the digestive system is therefore invaluable in providing the best treatment possible.
Prior to your first colonic treatment it is beneficial to not eat heavy meals (i.e. meat, fried food, pasta or bread) for 24 hours. However, do make sure that you do eat something light, in addition to remaining well hydrated. The more preparation you do, the more satisfying the result
