How Toxic is your Colon?

Are there contraindications for colon hydrotherapy?

Yes. Colon hydrotherapy is not advised when the following conditions exist:
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Intestinal perforation
  • Aneurysm
  • Severe anemia
  • Severe hemorrhoids
  • Cirrhosis
  • Colon cancer
  • Fistulas
  • First and last trimester of pregnancy
  • Abdominal hernia
  • Recent colon surgery

How does Colon Hydrotherapy compare with laxatives?

Both natural and chemical laxatives can irritate the colon wall and destroy both friendly and unfriendly bacteria in the bowel. If laxatives are taken more than periodically, your body may adjust and become dependent on them. Laxatives may interfere with the rest of the digestive system and could cause further problems. Conversely, colon hydrotherapy uses water to gently clean the colon, and thus, does not irritate the colon walls. It poses no risk of dependency, and it does not interfere with the rest of the digestive system.

Are Colonics painful?
Colonics are painless. Some discomfort may be experienced due to constipation, some form of obstruction, spasticity, excess flatulence (gases) and occasional cramping from the release of fecal matter or toxins.

Can I catch a disease from colon hydrotherapy?
The Angel of Water® CM-1 system uses a sterile disposable nozzle for insertion into the anal canal, and the system is designed for easy sanitizing and disinfecting.


How much Fecal Matter can you lose per session?

A person can lose up to three or more pounds per colonic session, depending on how loose the stool is and the condition of the colon.
