FAQ
What is a colonic?
A colonic, also known as colon hydrotherapy, is a gentle cleansing treatment where warm, filtered water is introduced into the colon to help loosen and release residual waste. Conducted by a colon hydrotherapist, the session takes place in a clean and odorless environment and typically lasts 45-60 mins.
How do I prepare for a treatment?
For optimal results, it’s recommended to eat a whole-food, plant-focused, and hydrating diet in the days leading up to an appointment. Enjoy fruits, vegetables, smoothies, salads, juices (especially those containing beets), soups, and stews, while minimizing meat, dairy, nuts, legumes, and processed foods. On the day of the treatment, aim to fast at least 3 hours prior and stop drinking liquids 1 hour beforehand to avoid a full bladder.
What type of colonics do you do?
Woods gravity method only.
How often should I get a colonic?
Frequency is dependent on diet, lifestyle, and health goals. Some clients come in weekly or biweekly, while others come in once a month or quarterly.
I’m on my period, can I still get a treatment?
Yes. A colonic during menstruation may even help with cramping and bloating.
