Last week we talked about preparing for your colon hydrotherapy session. This week we’ll talk about how to maintain optimal health after your colonic irrigation.

What to expect 

Colonics are used to rid the body of toxins and poisons by gently distilling warm water throughout the colon. As a result of cleansing your colon, you’ll most likely feel more vibrant and healthier overall. You may also feel lighter, have a boost of energy and have a heightened sense of wellness and inner peace.

After your session, it’s not uncommon for a bowel movement to be delayed for up to three days. Your stomach may also be a little uneasy with certain foods for a few days after your session.

Eating after a colonic

If your stomach is a little sensitive after your colon hydrotherapy Santa Monica session – which is common – then you may want to limit certain foods. Eat lightly for a few days after the session to slowly reintroduce foods to your stomach. Soups, vegetables and fruits filled with nutrients and enzymes – like avocados and steamed vegetables – are ideal.

It’s also important to hydrate by drinking plenty of water. Juices, herbal teas and liquids with an abundance of electrolytes – like coconut water – are all recommended for use after your colonic irrigation as well.

Consult our organic diet guide for a list of foods that are packed with nutrition.

Additional alternative healing methods

Along with the Association of Registered Colon Hydrotherapists, we often recommend additional healing methods to compliment colonics. Lymphatic massage uses a gentle, rhythmic touch to stimulate the lymph and liquify congestion to clear additional toxins. And deep breathing can calm the body and mind for enhanced healing.

Ongoing colon hydrotherapy

Generally colonic irrigation should be an ongoing process until the amount of impacted waste released is reduced. Our certified colon hydrotherapists can determine the amount of sessions you’ll need after the first session, which depends on the health of your colon.
