It is a way to dehydrate you and send your electrolytes into craziness.
Well, at least thats my opinion. :) It is basically one big enema.

Colonic = your colon; Hydro= Water. Water up your bum.

Yeah, like others have said, it's like having a big enema that is suppose
to clean out old "matter" (you know what I mean) from your colon.
I guess it is suppose to make you healther (I don't know how) and lose
weight (lots of people say it's just water weight you lose that comes right
back on).

I was suprised that one could administer their own. Sounds complicated.
The ones with which I am familiar are done by a professional, tastefully
done, controlled temps, atmosphere, etc. For some people, with either
chronic diarrhea oR constipation, it may be the last resort before bowel
resection surgery. It can "teach" the bowel to behave normally
if it is not enough or TOO spasmodic. It surely idn't something
"everyone" should run out & do, though the naturopaths often
recommend a series of 3-6 at least annually. Many people lives nice long
lives without ever EVEN hearing about this. But as I said, for some it is
better than facing bowel resection (cutting a hunk of bowel out because it
can't behave right).

Colonic hydrotherapy is one way to cleanse your colon. Ostensibly, it
washes out old waste matter toxic to the body. I did have a course of
colonics some years ago, and was surprised at how much nicer my complexion
was, maybe it has some merit. [*shrug*] Hope the info helps. Margie B
