Herbal Colonic Cleansing
Herbal Colonic Cleansing
One type of colon cleansing is a liquid fast of several days followed by an herbal supplement program. These supplements can be found in many health food stores labeled as colon cleansers. Often they are a mixture of natural herbs and psyllium husks, two products with proven laxative effects. Licorice and marshmallow root, along with natural ingredients are standard ingredients. This oral colon cleanser program begins with a small dose of herbal supplements that gradually increases to a daily multiple pill regimen.
At the end of a herbal or natural colon cleanse session, most users report excreting fecal material containing strange parasites and that looks like green mucus. Many suggest that this is evidence of toxic materials trapped inside the over months or years. When these toxins are eliminated with a colonic cleanse, many users report a substantial improvement in mood and energy levels, as well as in digestion. There are even claims of total recovery from some skin conditions, and improvement or reversal of some digestive problems.
Colonic hydrotherapy is another type of colon cleanse. This procedure is usually done by trained specialists in spas or private clinics. The patient reclines on a special table as the specialist inserts a speculum into their colon via the rectum. A special machine will then pump in filtered warm water as the specialist massages the abdomen.
It is common for colonic hydrotherapy users to report a feeling of fullness similar to bloating or diarrhea during the procedure. All solid material eliminated during the cleansing gently passes through the evacuation tube. However, if desired, it could be inspected after the procedure is finished. After about an hour of fluid injection, the patient will be advised to visit the restroom to remove any excess waste. A patient may need several cleansing procedures before all buildup has been removed.
