Can Colon Hydrotherapy help with Weight Loss

It's a question everyone asks when talking about colon hydrotherapy: can it help me lose weight? To be totally honest, it’s not an easy question to answer. In the same way that a detox diet (like drinking nothing but lemon water and maple syrup for three days) can do, a super cleansing colon hydrotherapy treatment can help you remove harmful toxins from your system while also shedding a couple of kilos that can usually be attributed to bloating and poor digestion. And, like a detox diet, it is not a solution for permanent and maintained weight loss.

However, unlike a detox diet, colonic hydrotherapy (also known as colonic irrigation) doesn’t just rid your body of toxins from one or two over-indulgent weekends, it cleanses your body of the years and years (heck, decades!) of harmful toxins and impacted fecal matter that have built up in your colon.

By removing a lifetime of hazardous junk from your colon you can kick-start your digestive system into functioning properly again. This improved colonic functioning tends to help people regulate their diet as they develop a new approach to their eating habits. They have a new appreciation of which foods are good for them and which don’t sit well – and as a result their improved diet means weight naturally comes down.

Here's another way colon hydrotherapy can help with weight loss… Because colonics involves a course of treatments spread over days or weeks, people tend to carefully watch what they eat in between treatments in order to make the most of the cleanse. A pleasant side-effect of this careful consideration towards diet often results in people losing weight during the process – many even dropping a dress size or two!

But how well colonics aids your weight loss all depends on YOU and what other steps you are taking to lose weight.
