Post Treatment Protocol
Your colon hydrotherapy treatment may stimulate, in the next few hours, several bowel movements. However, these will not be sudden, uncontrollable, or painful. Rather, it will be the colon performing its function of eliminating waste efficiently.
On the other hand, when the colon is weak or sluggish and you have had chronic constipation there my be no bowel movement for several days. This is a strong indication that you will need further treatment and should follow up with at least one more colonic. It is highly recommended to do 3 sessions for a complete colon cleanse.
The removal of toxins can cause symptoms similar to feeling unwell. This is a sign that the cleansing has truly begun! Remember the distinction between disease and healing is that healing is the releasing of problems associated with and from your unhealthy past, and a necessary part of your detoxification journey.
