What does Colon Hydrotherapy mean to us?
Colon Hydrotherapy/colonic is a method that goes far beyond intestinal cleansing.
The "Hidroterapia do Colon Moderna®" method was developed by Dr. David Granizo Bermejo, with the development of scientific studies at the same time, and is the most advanced technique in the recovery of normal physiological intestinal peristalsis and in the cleansing of the large intestine in its entirety.
In addition to intestinal cleansing, this method focuses on stimulating the enteric plexuses of the colon and recovering and strengthening the intestinal muscles.
The Colon Hydrotherapy session consists of deep irrigation of the entire colon, through a cannula that is inserted into the rectum, with filtered and tempered water, with controlled water and pressure. This cannula is double-channel: water enters through one channel and all fecal matter exits through the other several times during the session, without the need to go to the toilet, although it is possible to go.
All equipment used is sterilized or disposable and sanitary facilities are disinfected between each patient.
The therapy is carried out by a healthcare professional certified in "Hidroterapia do Cólon Moderna®" and Intestinal Health (course with more than 150 hours), with experience in Nursing and Natural Health/Naturopathy.
Dietary and supplement recommendations may be made, according to your needs and assessment.
