What Is Colon Hydrotherapy?
Colon hydrotherapy has been used for centuries. Various forms of colon cleansing were used by the ancient Egyptians. It is a technique that consists of a complete colon cleanse using filtered and purified water. In Europe, colonics and enemas were part of the medical practice. It’s long been established that maintaining a healthy bowel and colon is essential for general health.
As the years went on this therapy continued to be used. For example, at the beginning of the 1900s, Dr. John H. Kellogg, M.D. used colon therapy on several thousand of his patients with outstanding results. In the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) in 1917, Dr. Kellog reported that in over forty thousand (40,000) gastrointestinal disease cases, he had only needed to use surgery in twenty (20) cases. The rest were helped as a result of his cleansing their bowels, along with a proper diet and exercise.
Later, Dr. Waddington, in his work on “Scientific Intestinal Irrigation”, stated that the “restoration of physiological intestinal elimination is often the important preliminary to the eventual restoration of health in general”.

Budwig Center And Colon Hydrotherapy
Dr. Johanna Budwig favored colon cleansing. At our natural integrative clinic for cancer, we have two trained doctors and one nurse who performs this procedure. A gentle infusion of room temperature water is filtered into the anal canal to cleanse the walls of the colon effectively. There are no stimulants or chemicals of any kind used.
As toxins are the leading cause of cancer, unless it is contraindicated, all of our cancer patients who come to the Budwig Center receive a colonic irrigation session.

Why Is Colon Hydrotherapy Necessary?
Bad eating habits and the current way of life make the large intestine suffer and cause many diseases, which worsen our quality of life. The non-digested food goes from the small intestine into the large one. This debris should be evacuated usually twice a day without effort when the intestine is healthy, and the stool should have a good consistency.
When the food is kept during weeks and months in the intestine, it gets rotted and ferments. The debris sticks on the colon wall and the organism accumulates high amounts of toxins and develops pathogens, which originate many diseases and premature aging.
Colon hydrotherapy is an excellent option that helps to restore the health of the digestive system and improves the quality of life, in front of:
- Sedentary life.
- Antibiotic, corticoid, drugs, anti-inflammatory, and contraceptive abuse, which alter the intestinal flora balance.
- Laxative abuse causes a decrease of the intestinal motility and intestinal dysbiosis.
- Excess of mucus and toxins that cause allergies.
What A Colon Hydrotherapy Session Involves?
Colon hydrotherapy is an innovative painless technique of intestinal cleansing, which consists of deep flushing of the whole large intestine with filtered water. It is carried out with modern equipment that uses a two-circuit speculum that allows the entry of pure water and the exit of water and wastes through the rectum.
Fortunately, colon hydrotherapy is a painless technique. A gentle infusion of room temperature water is filtered into the anal canal to cleanse the walls of the colon effectively. There are no stimulants or chemicals of any kind used.
According to Medical News Today, People may refer to colon cleansing methods by different names, including:
- bowel cleanses
- detoxes
- flushes
- juice diets
What Are The Benefits Of Colon Hydrotherapy?
When the accumulated fecal mass is eliminated, there is deep detoxification that revitalizes the organism:
- 80% of the body’s defenses are in the mucus of the small and large intestine. Cleaning the intestinal lymph nodes stimulates the immune system, detoxifies and decreases the allergic process.
- Restores the intestinal peristalsis, especially in those with a hypotonic colon.
- It eliminates possible parasites and destroys mycoses.
- Dissolution of adherence caused by chronic inflammatory processes.
- Anti-inflammatory effect.
- Gases removal.
- Removal of foreign bodies swallowed by mistake, and undigested food.
- Increase of vitality.
- Higher resistance to fatigue.
- Improvement of the deposit of calcium in bones and joints.
- Improvement of mood and sleep disorders.
Because toxins are one of the leading causes of cancer, a colonic irrigation session is included in our cancer programs for all patients unless contraindicated by a medical doctor.
