Hydrocolon therapy

Hydrocolon therapy irrigates the large bowel with warm water through a dedicated device. It is used to help clear toxins and waste that have built up, out of the intestinal system. The procedure is carried out only on medical indication and under specialist supervision.

How hydrocolon therapy is carried out

The guest lies on a purpose-built table; warm water is delivered into the large bowel under control through the device and drawn back out. The temperature and pressure of the water are governed precisely by the device — that is the central safety condition of the procedure. A specialist stays with you throughout the session. Staying quiet for a while afterwards and drinking plenty of water are advised.

What it does for constipation and bloating

Sluggish bowel function can show itself as bloating, heaviness and general fatigue. The procedure belongs to the detox programmes that work on exactly those complaints:

Its effect on the intestinal system

• Ease in chronic constipation
• Less excess gas and bloating
• Support for the work of the digestive system
• Heaviness in the abdomen passing
• A complement to general detox programmes
• A feeling of lightness

The eating regime and contraindications

The physician explains the eating regime beforehand — usually a few hours of fasting are required. A history of bowel surgery, inflammatory bowel disease, pregnancy, heart and kidney failure are restrictions. Hydrocolon therapy is not a naftalan treatment and is not scheduled on the same day as a naftalan bath.

The procedure is carried out in the treatment wing under specialist supervision. No heavy physical load or heat procedures are planned for the rest of that day — the physician builds the timetable that way in advance.
