Cleansing Therapy FAQs

Why is colon cleansing essential to good health? In today's society the refined foods which we eat lack the bulk and fiber to create the cleansing and peristaltic motion to facilitate the movement of food through the colon. High salt, refined flour, hardened fats, high sugar, and lack of water all contribute to constipation and diverticulosis.

When the salt goes too high, it causes the food (or plaque) to be attracted to the walls by ionization and covers over the villi, which are the feeder mouths that pick up nourishment from the food you eat. When these are covered over for many years, the plaque becomes putrid and releases toxic, foul poisons back into the portal vein, which takes it to the liver. This poison is circulated throughout the entire system, weakening all the main organs of the body, and providing a "home for parasites".

Colon irrigations help to eliminate the poisons of putrification from the colon and large intestines, and allows the healthy bacteria to flourish again. Cleansing the colon is the first step to a healthier life. Call your licensed, trained, professional Ayala International colon therapist today for an appointment.

What is the colon?

One of the safest ways is a combination of diet, exercise, and Colon Hydrotherapy. It is the gentle infusion of filtered, temperature-controlled water into the colon, by way of a sterile, disposable rectal tube or speculum. Water in - fecal matter flushed out.

Will laxatives or enemas accomplish the same results?

To clean out the lower part of the colon, enemas are fine. But, you are missing about four feet of the colon. Laxatives are an irritant to the body. Therefore, the body produces a thin, watery substance that goes through the colon, but leaves behind impacted toxins and waste.

How is Colon Hydrotherapy different?

Colon Hydrotherapy is the gentle infusion of filtered, temperature-controlled water into the colon, which fills the colon, allowing impacted toxins and waste to be removed. With an experienced, certified, Ayala International therapist using FDA equipment, more toxins and waste can be eliminated by working the different meridians and pressure points, and by instructing you on breathing techniques and food combining.

What can I expect from Colon Hydrotherapy?

The main benefit received by releasing the toxic waste is that we remove the number one source of disease in the body. The bowel works more efficiently in the elimination of waste, and nutrient absorbtion is improved. Colon Hydrotherapy is not a cure, but it is a valuable procedure used to assist the body for a wide variety of different colon-related conditions. By toning the bowel wall and improving colon functions, the entire body is able to function more efficiently.

What is the Colon-Cleansing Procedure?

A colon cleansing is a gentle, warm-water washing of the colon (large intestine) combines with some external massage. Also known as intestinal hydrotherapy or colonic irrigation, it is completely safe, beneficial, and nontoxic.

The procedure last approximately (1 hour) and is performed by a colon therapist using a colon irrigation machine that regulates the water pressure, temperature, and water volume. A five-inch speculum attached to a hose (both disposable) is inserted into the anus, allowing the water to flow under gentle pressure to cleanse the entire length of the colon. The water dislodges toxic wastes in the colon, which are then flushed out through a waste hose. During a cleansing, a series of water-fills and releases also helps to stimulate the expansion and contraction of the muscular walls of the colon. This, combines with a changing of the water temperature from warm to cool, exercises the colon and promotes the restoration of proper peristaltic action.

During the cleansing, most people find that they can relax completely. After the cleansing is completed, acidophilus can be taken orally to increase the level of beneficial flora present in the intestinal tract.

Note: Since nearly all tap water contains chemicals as well as other undesirable substances, it is most important that the water used in a colon cleansing be purified by some form of filtration system. Most up-to-date colonic machines are equipped with disposable hoses and speculums to insure cleanliness. You should insist on disposable accessories that are used only once and then thrown away.

Can you describe a healthy, well-functioning bowel?

When one feels the urge to eliminate and immediately honors the urge by a trip to the toilet, elimination is quick, painless, and feels complete. Stools are medium to light brown, have very little odor, and will break up in the water.

Is the colon the only organ that holds toxic waste?

No. Toxic waste is found throughout the body. When toxins cannot be eliminated through the colon, liver, kidneys, perspiration, or lungs, the body must store them in our body tissues. Some favorite spots for storage are fat cells, joints, muscles, arteries, the liver and others.

Colon Hydrotherapy works to soothe and tone the colon, helping it to eliminate more efficiently. The function as a whole reduces the burden on other organs and the lymphatic system, which is our main line of defense against harmful bacteria.

What are the signs or symptoms when we first begin to omit toxic substances, and clean out the colon?

When a regular diet of stimulates such as coffee, tea, chocolate, and others are eliminated from your diet, some clients comment about headaches, and sometimes mild depression. This is usually when cleansing of the colon helps. That is why Colon Hydrotherapy is recommended with back-to-back sessions the first two weeks.

Why do the symptoms or signs happen?

This is due to the discard by the body of the toxins being removed. These toxins are removed from the tissue and transported by the blood to the liver, and then to the colon for elimination. All the symptoms generally pass by the third or fourth session of Colon Hydrotherapy. Clients often say their energy level is very high after the second session. Many have a great desire to Spring clean!

How else can I improve my nutritional program?

One of the most important things you can do is to omit (avoid) toxic substances such as coffee, tea, chocolate, salt, pepper, alcohol, over the counter drugs, and synthetic vitamins.

Can you summarize what you think about nutrition?

Look at it this way: the closer the food comes to the natural state in which it occurs, or the closer we come to its raw, un-fried form, the higher its quality. In this condition, all the enzymes are found intact. The amino acids are in their finest form. The minerals, vitamins, trace elements, carbohydrates, and life forces are present. In turn, the life force is capable of reproducing healthy tissue.

Consider this...

A sluggish colon can result in continued bacterial breakdown of the feces, which can produce 36 poisons in the alimentary tract. Also, putrefying waste can lead to pre-cancerous conditions in the colon.

Favorable bacteria (flora) are always present throughout the small and large intestines. Colon Hydrotherapy improves the bacteria "habitat" facilitating their reproduction and their multiplication.
