Colonics/ Colon Hydrotherapy
Colonics or Colon cleansing
Colon hydrotherapy is a safe, gentle and effective procedure which has been used for many decades to help cleanse the colon of built up waste, relieve symptoms of constipation and help restore better colon function.
Better bowel function can often be restored through the regular use of colonics accompanied by proper eating habits, consumption of sufficient amounts of water and fiber, restoration of the intestinal microbiome and regular exercise.
The procedure
I utilize the gentle gravity method developed by Dr. Woods, who is the father of colon hydrotherapy. Dr. Woods pioneered the field of colon hydrotherapy and his time tested method is still considered to be the most beneficial, natural and gentlest method of hydrotherapy, and which is known to be prefered worldwide.
Upon your arrival you will be asked to fill out a health history. Then we will discuss any problems you are having and possible solutions. Any pertinent health issues will be discussed before beginning the colonic. Recommendations regarding lifestyle and eating habits may be made depending upon your needs.
You will be given an hospital gown and allowed to change in privacy. After changing you will recline comfortably on a softly padded table while fresh warm water is drawn into the tank.
Next, a speculum will be gently inserted. The speculum allows for the introduction of warm water into the colon, like an enema as well as for the expulsion of waste. During a colonic, a larger waste line is connected to the speculum which carries away the flowing water and waste. The water is alternately introduced slowly and gently, and then released as we work our way up the descending, transverse and ascending sections of the colon. We use only freshly filtered water and disposable specula for our treatments.
Your abdomen will be gently massaged at times during the colonic to help relax the muscles, move gas pockets and gently stimulate peristalsis. The sensations although unfamiliar are not usually uncomfortable. The colonic procedure usually takes about forty five minutes, but can take a bit longer for a more sluggish bowel.
When the colonic is complete, you will return to the toilet to release any remaining water and waste before dressing. We will then go over any special recommendations for you. You will have the opportunity to purchase recommended supplements such as fiber and probiotics if you choose.
During your treatment you will be personally attended by Christine Williams who has been a colon therapist for 37 years in Asheville, NC. Please see our reviews section for the experiences of other customers we have served.

Michele Torino Hower reviewed Health & Wellness Naturally — 5 star January 21, 2017 · Having used colonics to assist in cleansing over the past 10 years, I found Christine to be knowledgeable and professional, caring and calm. Her hands seemed to know just where to massage on my belly to help everything move as it needed. The bed was warm and the room was clean. Because the colonic was good and complete - and because I felt at ease with Christine, I plan to see her again when my gut needs assistance.
Rich Pettus reviewed Health & Wellness Naturally — 5 star December 29, 2016 · first time using colonics and I was a little apprehensive going in. She was very professional and quickly eliminated any concerns. She told me she had been doing this for 30 years, and it shows. I had. The place is maintained very clean and is conveniently located. She was so very helpful with my problems I was having after a slowed down system from an antibiotic dosage. I would highly recommend her if you are considering this service, and I will use it again.
Kimberly Brittain Wilson recommends Health & Wellness Naturally— 5 star- October 20 · Excellent hydrotherapy session.. if you have gut issues Christine is great. Hydrotherapy has done more to benefit me in 3 months than almost 2 years of seeing doctors, gastroenterologist, tests etc. I feel amazing and have dropped about 15 pounds just from the sessions (2) alone.

Meagen Anne reviewed Health & Wellness Naturally — 5 star March 9, 2017 · Very professional and clean. I was curious how someone would handle being sterile with colonics in their home, but Christine was amazing and the room was clean and her set up was done well. Thanks for your assistance in my healing. I will be back soon!
Jackie Cole reviewed Health & Wellness Naturally — 5 star February 26 · Knowing a colonic would help my 93 yr young mother get rid of quite a bit of mucus after she had a stomach virus and help a sluggish colon, I called with 1 hrs notice and Christine was more than willing to fit us in. Christine was very accommodating and gave my mother a very thorough colonic. I would highly recommend her!
