Information on Holistic Colon Hydrotherapy or Colonics,
internal colon cleansing and equipment
Colonic irrigation - reportedly practised by Gisele Bundchen,
Ben Affleck, Tara Reid, Demi Moore, Kim Basinger and Goldie Hawn
- is not just a fad. It's also a symbol of our shifting
attitudes to our bodies, and our control of them, as well as a
deep cultural ambivalence about food.
Gillian McKeith, who presents the new series You Are What You
Eat, has earned the moniker the "queen of colonic irrigation" in Britain
because of her belief that people need to kickstart health routines with a good
flush.
Colonics or Colon Hydrotherapy is generally the internal cleansing of the large
intestine with water. I like to call it 'bathing of the colon' as it is a nice
and gentle procedure.
The purpose of a colonic procedure is to remove toxic material, relieve
intestinal stress, stimulate intestinal muscle function, reconditioning of
intestinal muscles and elimination.
