COLON CLEANSING
Have you ever considered this simple
question: Are you clean inside?
We shower, brush our teeth and clean our hair on a daily basis, but
we tend to ignore cleansing our inside until some form of disease sends us a wake up call. Believe it or not, the inside of our digestive
system, especially the colon which functions as the “sewer system” of our body also requires cleansing. After all the digestive system is our
inner skin and protects us from inside, so treat it as well as you do the outer skin.
We are exposed to numerous toxins and chemicals on a daily basis,
through our air we breath, our food and water supply, and through the extensive use of pharmaceutical drugs. Such toxins and “dead” foods
lead to poor digestion, constipation, toxic colon build-up, weight gain and low energy. These common symptoms are more than just an
inconvenience - they can lead to long-term health problems and serious disease
Let’s face it: Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Constipation, Gas,
Diverticulitis, and Colon Cancer are not things we like to discuss. And yet, as the old expression goes, death begins in the colon. Colonics
can result in improving health , energy, and vitality. The oldest, most effective and life transforming therapy is Colon hydrotherapy.
Short history of Colon hydrotherapy, principles
and practice
Colon hydrotherapy was first recorded 1500 B.C. by ancient
Egyptian‘s. Documented, Ebers Papyrus, which dealt with the practice of medicine.. Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, in the fourth
century B.C. recorded using colonics for correcting fevers and hundreds of other medical conditions. Colon hydrotherapy was taught in all
the ancient Greek medical schools. Therapeutic benefits of colon hydrotherapy were highly valued until the turn of the century. In short,
3500 years of accumulated knowledge of Naturopathic Medicine is questioned away by one generation of medical science. The controversy over
colon hydrotherapy has continued . Intelligent people seek out colon hydrotherapy services because it makes sense, and has helped hundreds of
different conditions. It reduces toxicity and they better from the treatment.
We must face the facts. If the colon is blocked, digestion will be blocked in
proportions which results in a toxic body. No therapy even the best nutritional therapy can not work in a toxic body. There is no getting
around the colon because it’s the main organ of elimination. Colon hydrotherapy is the most direct approach to correct almost all conditions
and disorders. Everyone can benefit from good colon cleansing. It can do no harm to the walls of the colon. The benefits of a series of
colonics can be life transforming. There is no condition known to medical science that can not be helped with a colonic, because colonics
reduce toxicity. We believe the place to start fighting disease is with a colonic. The first place to start preventing disease is with a
colonic. Dr. Bernard Jensen said, everything is connected to the colon, the opposite of our modern day medical doctors who seem to be telling us that nothing is connected to the colon.
Colon hydrotherapy not only removes impactions, parasites, and
cellular debris, but cleanses and rejuvenates the portion of the immune system that resides in the intestinal tract. The fastest way to
improve the body’s immune system is to clean the colon. And the best way to depress the immune system is by ignoring the importance of a
colon to the immune system and the rest of the body. By attempting run around the colon and substituting drugs, leads to immune suppression.
Drugs are toxic. They are foreign substances that do not belong in the human body. All drugs are harmful. Some drugs have long term
deleterious effect causing other diseases and complications including death.
Naturopathic/integrative medicine fundamental beliefs are that
the first place to begin treating and preventing disease is by reducing toxicity. When we reduce toxicity we free bio-energy that is required
to fight toxins. When bio-energy is released the body has the vitality it requires to heal it self.
Colon hydrotherapy, administered properly under medical/naturopathic
supervision, does no harm. Colonics are 100% safe. The principle of colon hydrotherapy is over 3500 years old. It’s simple, it’s practical,
it makes sense and it works!
Sanitation is also now guaranteed with disposable hose, speculums,
gloves and sheets. Cross bacteria contamination is impossible with the modern equipment because it is designed with two separate lines. One
brings fresh filtered water in and the other line takes the waste product to the sewer. Everything has been thought through in advance.
In New Jersey colon hydrotherapy is considered a medical procedures and can only be performed legally under medical supervision. Due to
medical schools not teaching colon hydrotherapy procedure, few medical doctors have experience in them, and do not appreciate it’s
potential benefits.
At
Integrative Medical Center colon hydrotherapy has always been an integral part of a total therapeutic treatment program. We have been
successful in creating a medical model of integrative medicine, where Medical Doctors and Naturopathic Doctors practice as a team. At I M C
this very highly beneficial medical procedure is supervised and administered by our staff Medical Doctor’s.
