Colon Hydrotherapy

CharlieRN · Jul 16, 2005

The only experience I have with this recently was an ad I saw for a female RN offering such therapy. It appeared clear from the ad that she was offering enemas with a "kinky sex" garnish.

Yes it was in my local area. We New Englanders are such staid and proper folks. :)

More quackery. Money making & dangerous.

I did take an elective class in this for my Masters course and it was gross and I am hard to gross out. Way to many pics of feces......

I fail to see the scientific efficacy of this practice. I doubt this is evidence-based and the metabolic imbalances could well prove fatal. Not something I want to be involved with.

May I direct the attention of my collegues to the ads that have appeared at the bottom of this page?

You are right Charlie - although "Yuck" would be my word.

Hi welcome back once again.Avoid harsh chemicals such as laxatives as these can often cause more harm than good.Herbal based colon cleansers are a natural and gentle alternative and can produce excellent results.

I'm having colonics now and can provide an update in a few weeks. I rather wait until then to give more definite feedback.

I'm a little more openminded than most, and I feel that I rather try out all

"natural" things, first, before resorting to prescription meds. To each their own.
