Colonic Irrigation / Hydrotherapy (Enemas)

Colonic irrigation and enemas are amongst the oldest recorded medical treatments. Implements for giving enemas and descriptions of their use are recorded in the Egyptian Ebers Papyrus dating form 1500BC. The most famous physcian Hippocrates described using donkey milk, honey, sweet wine olive and soda enemas. Since these early times enemas were used extensively as part of the lay healers treatments until around the mid-1800's when medicine became a more organised science-based practice. Enemas and colonics continued to be used in the home and hospitals, usually administered by nurses or midwives, to ensure daily bowel movements- a recognistion of the importance of maintaining regular elimination to allow the body to heal.


Colonic irrigation / hydrotherapy is a well established natural therapy that acts directly on the colon. An infusion of warm purified water is introduced gently under a low pressure via a small tube, which circulates throughout the colon. This effectively removes waste matter and toxins that have built up and adhered to the colon wall and not removed during normal excretion.

Here are some of the main benefits to the colon:

  • Toning
  • removing waste toxic material
  • massaging, re-establishing more normal shape and form
  • empties pockets and improves muscle contraction
  • balancing the micro flora ecosystem
  • increasing the absorption of nutrients through the colon
  • improves transit time
  • increasing well-being
