You're in control throughout your session, deciding when to release and how much water feels comfortable, making the experience gentle and relaxing.
Is colon hydrotherapy safe to do?
What are colonics good for?
Colonics are essentially elevated enemas. This service is great for individuals who are having trouble with constipation, gas, bloating, or indigestion. Clients can look forward to feeling instant digestive relief by eliminating buildup in the colon that can lead to a bloated stomach, sluggish digestion, cravings, and a decrease in energy. Colonics are a helpful tool that can be used as preventative care for wellness, especially pertaining to the colon and prostate.
What happens during a colonic?
During the colonic, you’ll relax in a private, comfortable setting while warm, filtered water gently flows through the colon. Your trained Colon Hydrotherapist will check on you throughout the session, make adjustments as needed, and ensure you remain comfortable. At Clean Start Cleansing, we enhance your experience with heating pads, handheld massagers to help ease cramping, and aromatherapy to promote relaxation and comfort.
How long is the service?
Our Colon Hydrotherapy session is 45 minutes with an hour slot allotted for your comfort and support.
Are there any side effects?
Some individuals may notice mild cramping or fatigue during or shortly after a session, as the body adjusts. These experiences are usually temporary. At Clean Start Cleansing Atlanta, we make sure you are supported before and after your session with simple aftercare recommendations to help you feel balanced and refreshed.
Is the colonic space private?
Yes, the colon hydrotherapy room is yours for your allotted time. The service is done in a private setting with a spacious area with comfort in mind. You're able to detox while enjoying your favorite music, watching your latest binge on Netflix, or enjoying a serene environment with meditation frequencies to ease your mind.
How many sessions do I need?
The number of sessions that somebody may need varies person to person. On average, a minimum of 3 sessions is ideal to clean out the entirety of the colon. A person who deals with moderate to severe constipation may need anywhere between 3-6 sessions. Your average person who wants to maintain a healthy gut can do a colonic once a month or fewer depending on the person and their goals.
Can colonics help with weight loss?
Colon hydrotherapy is not a weight loss treatment, but it can be a helpful tool to support your wellness journey. Some clients may notice a temporary decrease in weight after a session due to the elimination of waste, along with relief from bloating, gas, and build-up in the colon. Results vary from person to person based on factors such as digestion, hydration, and individual bowel habits. For long-term weight management, colon hydrotherapy is best combined with healthy nutrition, regular movement, and proper hydration.
