A small lubricated tube (speculum) is gently inserted a few centimeters into your rectum, then warm, filtered water is slowly introduced into your colon. As the warm water enters, you will feel a fullness as your colon fills up, then a relaxing feeling as it empties. The water pressure and temperature are carefully controlled and all waste is drained away discreetly in a closed system with absolutely no mess or odours. This filling and emptying is repeated several times. Aromatherapy oils are used to aid relaxation and elimination while the abdomen is gently massaged. Colon hydrotherapy reaches the whole length of your large intestine unlike an enema. Although this will not happen with your first treatment!
