Hydrotherapy Colonics + Nutrition Consultation
Our Therapists are Certified Colon Hydro therapist and I-Act member. They are trained directly from the LIBBE device company. The LIBBE Colonic Irrigation Device is an FDA-registered Class II device for colon cleansing when medically indicated, such as before radiological or endoscopic examination. Therapeutic Enema is also another term used.
Colon Hydrotherapy is referred to as Colonics or colon irrigation. These are names for hydrotherapy which uses water for inner cleansing. Colon Hydrotherapy is clean and comfortable treatment.
A soothing flow of purified warm water is instilled gently into the colon through a disposable nozzle / rectal tube, (“size-of-a-pencil”). The small nozzle is easily inserted to cleanse (evacuate) the contents of your lower colon.
Your dignity is always maintained! The system is designed to allow evacuation of the contents of the colon during the administration of colon hydrotherapy.
Professional Colon Hydrotherapy Devices have systems, that the pressure, temperature, and flow of water, are all safely regulated throughout the session. The water is purified with an Ultra Violet Water Purification System. The LIBBE Device is comfortable and may be operated in privacy for those who prefer solitude.
There is no odor! Odor is whisked away thru the sewer drainpipe.
Used as a non-laxative preparation for colonoscopy or when medically indicated.
About a Colonic Session with the LIBBE DEVICE, Open System
Water flows through a Carbon Filter which removes any sediment, rust, or chlorine. The water is purified by an Ultra Violet Purification System, before it passes through the colon cleansing nozzle. Water flows gently into the rectum and waste releases naturally.
A gentle slow rate of UV purified-temperature safe water is fed from the gravity-fed Column. Less than TEN gallons of water may be used during the session at a safe temperature of 98 F. to 102 F. (36.8ºC to 38.ºC) (Water temperature is safely controlled and adjusted). An Odor Exhaust System insures that the session room and entire center remains ODOR FREE.
Our Colonic device LIBBE base (table) has over three feet of clear viewing tube, which allows the patient/client and the therapist to easily view (without any odor) the waste during releases.
To Start the session: The Client undresses from the waist down and is properly draped during the session. You will be covered and the client inserts a small colon cleansing nozzle in privacy by the client with instructions from the therapist. The Colon cleansing nozzle is the ‘size of a pencil’, single use, and disposed of after each individual use. Once the client is ready and on the device, the client will notify the therapist that they are draped and ready to begin.
After a colonic session: A rinsing sprayer attached to the device is available for the client to rinse bottom after session for a clean experience. Sessions last approximately 45 minutes. Modesty is protected at all times.
A trained certified colon hydro therapist is always nearby to monitor and provide patient/client assistance and comfort as needed.
After each session the LIBBE is easily and safely disinfected by a TRAINED LIBBE THERAPIST for a CLEAN and SANITARY Experience. We pride ourselves in a CLEAN and SANITARY experience each and every time during a colonic.
It is recommended to not eat 2 Hours Prior to your colonic session.

HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE RECOMMENDED?
Per various medical research, a recommendation of twelve sessions over a span of 10 weeks is necessary. Two the first week (one today, one tomorrow), two the second week, and one a week for the next eight weeks. The reason for that is the human body is exceptionally smart. When we clean out the colon, the body starts pulling waste out of the colon, the body starts pulling waste out of the tissues and putting them into the blood stream.
HOW MUCH TIME IS REQUIRED FOR A SESSION?
Approximately 45 minutes.
IS IT PAINFUL?
Colon hydrotherapy is not painful (most find it soothing), however, some occasional abdominal cramping may occur as the colon works to expel old fecal matter.
