In this eliminative washing out process, do not be misled into the thought that [colon cleansings] are not beneficial. Also disregard any claims that they cause loss of intestinal flora, as this is not true.
No intestinal flora can exist or flourish when the fecal matter clogs up the glands in the colon that cause the flora to flourish. Norman W. Walker, D. During the first and third trimester of pregnancy it is contraindicated to have a colonic.
In the first trimester, the fetus is developing and any pressure from a water filled colon could disrupt the delicate dance of development irreversibly. It is safer to wait until the crucial stages of brain development are complete at around 12 weeks. During the final trimester of pregnancy, again, colonics are contraindicated as there is limited space in the abdominal cavity, the colon is already displaced and filling it with water during this time may cause damage.
Wait at least 6 weeks to heal and recover from childbirth before having a colonic. You can have a colonic while you are nursing.
If you are coming in because of constipation, a colonic is much better than a laxative. A full colon is unable to contract efficiently, this means that the muscles involved in moving faeces toward the rectum are sluggish, slow and unable to perform to their full capacity. Removing the fullness in the colon restores muscular activity, allowing the contractions to be more efficient, more dramatic and stronger. Colonics have a toning effect on the colon, they stimulate the colon muscles and remind them how to work.
Physically, colonics are not habit forming. Your body will not become reliant on them to eliminate. Many people find their colonic treatment to be the perfect way to begin a cleansing program or to embark on a better dietary program. The more you work towards eliminating refined and processed foods, chemicals, preservatives and food additives, the more your system will respond. Eating light, easy to digest meals after your colonic will help to prolong feelings of lightness and wellbeing.
Thomas Jefferson. The nature of a detox is to eat less often, eat lighter foods or forgo food altogether and opt for freshly squeezed juices or smoothies and to drink more water. This all has the cumulative effect of minimising the burden on the digestive system but if the inside of the colon is caked with toxic material or the colon is full and hardly moving, none of the benefits of your detoxification is really going to make much difference.
Generally speaking, colonics are a vital part of a detoxification process. A series of colonics before the detox begins, serves to empty the colon, re-hydrate the large intestine, improve bowel function and remove mucoid plaque from the inside of the colon wall. Once the bowel is in a clean and well-functioning state, the next step is to continue to have colonics treatments during the detox. The act of chewing begins the process of peristalsis in the digestive tract.
